Frequently Asked Questions
1. What does BVVB stand for?
B: Fixed wiring cable (Chinese standard classification)
V: PVC insulation
V: PVC sheath
B: Flat type design
BVVB is a flat-type PVC insulated and sheathed copper cable designed for fixed electrical installations where space-saving and surface mounting are required.
2. What are the standard voltage ratings for BVVB cable?
300/300V: For low-voltage lighting and signal circuits
300/500V: Most common for residential and commercial applications
450/750V: For higher power applications and industrial use
Special Versions: 250/440V for specific markets, 600/1000V for industrial applications
3. Where is BVVB cable typically used?
Residential buildings: Surface-mounted wiring for sockets and lighting
Commercial spaces: Office power distribution, retail store installations
Renovation projects: Retrofitting existing buildings without concealed conduits
Temporary installations: Exhibition booths, stage wiring, construction sites
Furniture manufacturing: Built-in electrical systems for cabinets and displays
4. What is the temperature rating of BVVB cable?
Normal operating temperature: -15°C to +70°C
Maximum conductor temperature: 70°C continuous operation
