Spec Details VG95218 Part 28 Type C and E

VG95218 Part 28 contains in general a set of different types of cables for various
applications.
These cables cut into the five types A, B, C, D and E, including the relevant test
requirements.
The instructions on how to carry out the tests and what national and international standards
are to be quoted are stated in the specification VG95218 Part 2. Halogen free cables with an
improved performance in case of fire are required for marine applications.
Cables that meet these requirements can be found in Type C and Type E.
At present, 81 different constructions are available in Type C (single braid), numbered

C001 to C081.
In Type E (double screen) there are currently 11 different constructions, numbered E001 to
E011.
The types of cables which can be compared directly to Part 61 to 66 are specified in
Part 28 under part numbered C033 to C078 and E004 to E011.
Cables approved according to VG95218 Part 28 Type C and E contain single conductors,
components and jacket materials, which have to be approved and licenced indivdually and
independently from each other according to the subgroup of the standards.
Every sub-standard contains test requirements for electrical and mechanical features, as
well as demands for resistance against aggressive fluids and improved performance in case
of fire.
VG95218 Part 28 C and E cables comprise.
 Single Wires, specified according to sub-standard VG95218 Part 20 Type E.

Available in cross sections of 0,15 mm2 to 3,0 mm2 in 11 different colors including green/
yellow. Single Wires can be used as components in multicore cables as well as single element
for wiring of units or cabinets.
 Unbraided Components – in pairs, triples and quads specified in standard VG95218

Part 21 Type C.
Elements of Part 21 Type C contain single wires of Part 20 Type E and define, additionally,
various color combinations of single wires.
 Braided Components – in pairs, triples and quads specified in standard VG95218 Part
23 Type G.
Elements of Part 23 Type G contain elements of Part 21 Type C.
Elements that are defined by colors are braided and protected by a wrapped outer layer.
These elements can be used only as components in multicore cables.
 The jacket material and the complete cable are specified in standard VG95218 Part C
and E.
This comprises the constructive data of the cables, as well as all test requirements for the
complete cable and cable jacket.
Spec VG95218 Part 28 acts on a modular conception, which allows to design and define
freely the construction of a cable with tested and approved components according to Part 20
to 23 and the requirements of the user.

construction of the cable, as e.g. according to the following codes:
L – Light Weight
F – Communications
M – Marine
G – Insulation or Jacket
S – Braid
O – without defined maintenance of functions in case of fire
