Product Description
BVR Flexible Electrical Cable

BVR Cable is a PVC-insulated flexible copper wire designed for electrical installations requiring flexibility and ease of handling. The stranded copper conductor provides superior maneuverability compared to solid core alternatives.

BVR Cable Designation
  • B: Insulated Wiring (Chinese standard designation)
  • V: PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) Insulation
  • R: Flexible (Stranded Copper Conductor)
Applications
  • Building Wiring: Fixed electrical circuits in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings
  • Power Distribution: Wiring for distribution boards, switches, and outlets
  • Control Systems: Control wiring for machinery and equipment
  • Temporary Installations: Construction site wiring and temporary power supply
Key Advantages
  • Flexibility: Ideal for applications requiring frequent bending or movement
  • Easy Installation: Stranded conductor simplifies routing and termination
  • Cost-Effective: Affordable solution for flexible electrical installations
  • Wide Availability: Commonly used and readily available in various sizes

Frequently Asked Questions
What does BVR stand for?
  • B: Fixed wiring cable (Chinese standard classification)
  • V: PVC insulation
  • R: Flexible/stranded conductor

BVR is a PVC-insulated flexible copper wire designed for electrical installations requiring bending and maneuverability.

What are the standard voltage ratings for BVR cable?
  • 300/500V: For lighting circuits and control wiring
  • 450/750V: For power distribution and socket circuits
  • Special Versions: 300/300V for extra flexibility, 600/1000V for industrial applications
Where is BVR cable commonly used?
  • Residential buildings: Wall outlets, lighting circuits, appliance connections
  • Commercial spaces: Office power distribution, retail store wiring
  • Industrial applications: Control panel internal wiring, machine connections
  • Renovation projects: Retrofitting existing electrical systems
What is the temperature rating of BVR cable?
  • Normal operating temperature: -15°C to +70°C
  • Maximum conductor temperature: 70°C continuous operation
  • Short-circuit withstand: 160°C for maximum 5 seconds
What safety standards does BVR comply with?
  • International: IEC 60227
  • Chinese National: GB/T 5023
  • Certifications: CCC (China), CE (Europe), RoHS
  • Fire Performance: Standard version is not flame-retardant (for flame-retardant requirements, choose ZR-BVR)
Can BVR be used outdoors or in damp locations?
  • Not recommended for direct outdoor exposure
  • Suitable for indoor dry and damp locations when properly protected
  • Requires conduits or trunking in harsh environments
  • Not designed for direct burial
What are the available conductor sizes?
  • Common Sizes: 1.5 mm², 2.5 mm², 4 mm², 6 mm²
  • Standard Range: 1.5 mm² to 35 mm²
  • Stranding Classes: Class 2 (standard) or Class 5 (high flexibility)
What is the current carrying capacity of BVR?

Example for 450/750V BVR:

  • 1.5 mm²: 15-20A (depending on installation method)
  • 2.5 mm²: 20-27A
  • 4 mm²: 25-36A
  • 6 mm²: 32-46A

Note: Actual capacity depends on installation conditions and local regulations.

What are the advantages of choosing BVR over other cables?
  • Flexibility: Easier installation in complex routing situations
  • Vibration Resistance: Withstands mechanical stress better than solid conductors
  • Installation Efficiency: Faster installation in tight spaces
  • Reliability: Maintains electrical continuity under movement stress
  • Cost-Effective: Balanced performance and price for flexible applications
Color coding availability?
  • Standard Colors: Red, yellow, blue, black, green-yellow (earth)
  • Phase Identification: Brown, black, grey (international standards)
  • Custom Colors: Available for specific project requirements
  • Color Coding: Helps in circuit identification and maintenance
Comparison chart of different cable types including BV, BVR, RV, BVVB and RVVB
Cable Type Comparison

BV: Rigid wire, a single-core copper wire.

BVR: Flexible wire, a single-core wire made of multiple copper strands twisted together.

RV: Also a flexible wire, generally not used for home decoration.

BVVB: Rigid sheathed wire, two or more BV wires sheathed together.

RVVB: Flexible sheathed wire, two, three, or four RV wires sheathed together.
