IEC 60331-31

8 Min Read
NEK TS 606 is the Norwegian offshore industry technical specification (TS) covering a range of power, instrumentation and earth cables that are halogen free and/or MUD resistant, protecting them against the type of hydrocarbon-laden drilling liquid used in drilling operations which can have an adverse effect on cable sheathing materials. Originally published in 1993 by the Norwegian Electrotechnical Committee (NEK) as a successor to the 'Recommended Practice for Specification of Cables' of the Norwegian Oil Industry Association, NEK 606 has evolved to become an internationally accepted standard for offshore cable applications.
