TKD Kabel offers UN/ECE-R 118.02 certified cables covering product categories from power to signal transmission
UN/ECE-R 118.02 is an international standard that specifies fire safety guidelines for materials and components in motor vehicles such as buses and coaches. Its purpose is to ensure passenger safety. For electrical cables, the certification requires flame tests to be carried out to examine the cables for flammability and self-extinguishing properties. TKD Kabel has an extensive portfolio of cables for the automotive sector that meet these strict requirements.
Cables for power and signal transmission
The spectrum covers all areas of vehicle electronics, ranging from lighting and air conditioning systems to on-board electronics and control or communication applications. ECE-R-certified products include electronic cables from the ELITRONIC®-CY series distributed by TKD Kabel, which are used to transmit analog and digital signals in measurement, control, and regulation technology. The ÖPVC-JZ/OZ control cables are suitable for use as power, control, connection, and interconnect cables in flexible applications. With its Industrial Ethernet cables for Cat.5e to Cat.7A, TKD Kabel supports secure signal transmission in harsh environments. The ECE-R portfolio is rounded off by wiring cables for luminaires. In addition, as a technical distribution partner of HUBER+SUHNER in German-speaking countries, TKD Kabel offers RADOX® brand automotive cables. These are also certified according to UN/ECE-R 118.02.
