British Standard Cables (also known as BS cables) are electrical cables manufactured in accordance with and compliant to specific British Standards published by the British Standards Institution (BSI). Established in 1901, BSI is the world's longest-serving national standards setting body. Although BSI is not a regulatory body, British Standards are often referenced within UK laws, regulations, and increasingly in international specifications across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia.
