BIS CERTIFICATION FOR POLY-LAMINATED ALUMINUM CABLE WRAP IS 16012:2012

Poly-Laminated Aluminum Cable Wrap necessitates BIS certification in compliance with the ES standard IS 16012:2012. Serving as both cable insulation and shielding material, it's crafted by laminating polymer layers with aluminum. This construction offers a harmonious blend of features: the polymeric layers deliver electrical insulation, while the aluminum layer provides moisture resistance. Consequently, the cable exhibits durability, mechanical protection, and flexibility, potentially leveraging enhanced heat reflection. Widely employed in power distribution and telecommunication sectors, these cable wraps are favored for their electrical insulation, moisture resistance, and robust mechanical properties.

Under the ISI certification scheme stipulated by IS 16012:2012, Poly-Laminated Aluminum Cable Wraps are required to bear the ISI Mark for sale, import, or export to the Indian consumer market. This standard meticulously delineates its criteria, underscoring the significance of this product. Non-compliance with ISI certification renders the product unfit for transactions in the Indian market, ensuring adherence to quality and safety standards.
