    Colour Code 1 Core : Brown
    2 Cores : Brown or Blue
    3 Cores : Brown, Black, Grey
    4 Cores : Blue, Brown, Black, Grey
    5 Cores : Green/Yellow, Blue, Brown, Black, Grey
    Above 5 Cores : White Cores with black numbers
    Bedding Single core extruded layer of polymeric material
    Multicore a) extruded layer of polymeric materia
    b) or a taped bedding consist of two or more layers of PVC tape or other synthetic tape, for the cable having conductor area of 16mm² and above
    Armour Single Core : AWA (Aluminum Wire Armour)
    Multi Core : SWA (Steel Wire Armour)
    Outer Sheath Extruded PVC, type 9 specified in BS7655
