EN 50288-7
The European standard EN 50288-7 represents the first standard for instrumentation cables for onshore applications which has been created by a recognised international standardisation organisation. The future meaning of this standard will be underlined by the fact that it will also become national standard in all CENELEC attached countries (at present 28). National standards conflicting with the EN-Standard will have to be withdrawn after a transitional period.
