Grounding Cable AS Schwabe H07V-K 16, 3 m (model 70869)

AS Schwabe grounding cable H07V-K 16, 3 m is a single-core copper conductor designed to provide a reliable earth connection for electrical installations and equipment testing. The cable features H07V-K insulation and a 16 mm² cross-section, offering a balance of flexibility and current-carrying capacity for grounding tasks in workshops, service vehicles and on-site work. Its 3 meter length allows convenient reach between equipment and grounding points while remaining manageable for transport and storage.

Advantages

The H07V-K 16 conductor provides consistent electrical continuity with low resistance thanks to its solid copper core. The insulation material is suitable for typical indoor and mobile working environments, protecting the conductor from mechanical abrasion and providing electrical insulation. The 3 m length is long enough for most short-range grounding tasks but short enough to avoid excessive coil bulk. The construction supports straightforward connection to grounding terminals and clamps, enabling safe and repeatable earth connections.

Suitable for

• Temporary grounding of electrical equipment during maintenance and testing
• Use in workshops and repair vans for vehicle and machinery servicing
• On-site grounding where a flexible, single-core conductor is required
• Establishing earth connections for portable test instruments and systems

Key specifications

• Conductor type: single-core copper, H07V-K
• Conductor cross-section: 16 mm²
• Overall length: 3 m
• Insulation: PVC or comparable thermoplastic suitable for H07V-K type
• Application temperature and flex characteristics: typical for H07V-K cables used in workshops and mobile service environments

How to use

Strip the insulation to the required length and attach the conductor securely to the grounding point using an appropriate clamp or terminal rated for the conductor cross-section. Ensure the connection is clean and free of corrosion or paint that could impede conductivity. Route the cable to avoid sharp edges, moving parts and high-temperature surfaces. After completing the work or test, disconnect the grounding cable in reverse order and store it coiled to avoid kinks.

Usage recommendations

Verify that the grounding method and cable cross-section meet local safety regulations and the requirements of the equipment being tested. Use suitably rated clamps and terminals, and inspect the cable for damage before each use. Replace the cable if insulation is cut, abraded or shows signs of thermal damage.
