7/10 kV silicone ignition cable for high-temperature ignition circuits
The 7/10 kV silicone ignition cable is a single-core, fixed-installation ignition cable with tinned flexible copper wires and silicone-rubber insulation. The supplied data gives a 7 kV Uo/U rated voltage and a 10 kV AC 50 Hz test voltage. It is intended mainly for automobile applications and for equipment areas subject to ambient-air temperature changes up to +180°C.
Select this 7/10 kV silicone ignition cable when the equipment specification calls for its stated voltage class, silicone insulation and fixed-routing condition. The construction is not presented as a screened, armoured, reeling or moving cable, so the ignition route, mechanical protection, termination and clearance must be reviewed in the equipment design.
- Suitable for: stated automobile ignition circuits and fixed high-temperature routes.
- Nominal options: 1.0 mm² with approximately 6 mm outer diameter, or 1.5 mm² with approximately 7 mm outer diameter.
- Confirm before ordering: the 7/10 kV silicone ignition cable voltage requirement, conductor size, route length, temperature, colour and termination.

7/10 kV silicone ignition cable construction
The supplied 7/10 kV silicone ignition cable construction is a tinned flexible copper conductor with silicone-rubber-compound insulation. Its orange-red sheath is visibly shown in the supplied product image; the source identifies the sheath colour as oxbrown-red.
This 7/10 kV silicone ignition cable construction should be specified by conductor size and the equipment's fixed route. The supplied information does not identify a screen, armour, braid or additional outer jacket, so do not treat the cable as a substitute where those elements are required.
| Conductor | Tinned flexible copper wires |
|---|---|
| Insulation | Silicone rubber compound |
| Sheath colour | Oxbrown-red, as stated in the supplied information |
| Installation condition stated for this 7/10 kV silicone ignition cable | Fixed installation |
Construction selection checks
- Confirm the specified conductor size and termination interface before releasing the 7/10 kV silicone ignition cable order.
- Provide any required marking, colour or cut length in the quotation request.
- Where the route needs additional abrasion protection, shielding, armour or continuous movement, define the required cable construction with the equipment designer.
7/10 kV silicone ignition cable applications
The supplied 7/10 kV silicone ignition cable application is mainly automobile ignition equipment. The source also identifies locations with high fluctuations in ambient-air temperature up to +180°C. Use the cable only for a fixed route that matches the stated voltage, temperature and bending conditions.

7/10 kV silicone ignition cable selection guidance
- Confirm the ignition-system voltage and the applicable 7 kV Uo/U requirement before selecting this 7/10 kV silicone ignition cable.
- Check the real conductor temperature against the supplied +180°C conductor-temperature limit and the route against the fixed-installation temperature range of −60°C to +180°C.
- Maintain the supplied fixed-installation minimum bending radius of 7.5 × D when routing the 7/10 kV silicone ignition cable.
- Confirm the terminal, connector, separation distance and any vehicle-specific requirements; these items were not supplied as product data.
