Electrical installations in ships - Part 376: Cables for control and instrumentation circuits 150/250 V (300 V)

IEC 60092-376:2025 applies to screened and unscreened cables for control and instrumentation circuits on ships and offshore units. The cables have an extruded solid insulation with a voltage rating of 150/250 V (300 V) (see Clause 4) and are intended for fixed installations. The various types of cables are given in Clause 5. The construction requirements and test methods are aligned with those indicated in IEC 60092?350, unless otherwise specified in this document. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition published in 2017. This edition constitutes a technical revision.This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:a) addition of a colour code for wires and tapes for unit identification;b) addition of the core numbering for multicore cables;c) addition of design and test requirements for cables to be installed in explosive atmosphere areas;d) addition of the design and test requirements for cables to be installed between areas with and without explosive atmospheres.

Electrical installations in ships - Part 376: Cables for control and instrumentation circuits 150/250 V (300 V)

IEC 60092-376:2017 is applicable to screened and unscreened cables for control and instrumentation circuits on ships and offshore units. The cables have extruded solid insulation with a voltage rating of 150/250V (300V) and are intended for fixed installations. The various types of cables are given in Clause 5. The constructional requirements and test methods are aligned with those indicated in IEC 60092-350, unless otherwise specified in this document. The object of this document is: - to standardise cables whose safety and reliability are ensured when they are installed in accordance with the requirements of IEC 60092-352, - to lay down standard manufacturing requirements and characteristics of such cables directly or indirectly bearing on safety, and - to specify test methods for checking conformity with those requirements. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: - new structure in line with IEC 60092-353 and IEC 60092-354; - requirements and test methods have been divided in several tables for clarification (enhanced cold properties, oil resistance or resistance to drilling fluids) and have been aligned to IEC 60092-350; - the new testing methods for fire resistant cables are referenced in this document.

ZOOM ON ... the Requirements department
To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
