(Ref. para. 4)
3. Wire Types
There are two families of wire types:
A. United States (US)
The United States (US) wire types are installed on A300/A310/A300-600. Their core diameter has US diameters.
e.g. AKA gauge 24 has 19 strands diameter 0.127 mm (0.0050 in.) .
B. Metric (M) types:
The Metric (M) wire types are installed on the other Airbus A/C for weight saving.
e.g. CF gauge 24 has 19 strands diameter 0.12 mm (0.0047 in.) .
C. Wire type interchangeability table
NOTE: The tables that follow give the interchangeability between wire types. for example, if a DK is not available, you can replace it by a DM.
Although these wires have different structures, they are fully interchangeable (for a given marking type).

4. Wire Type Codes
NOTE: The tables that follow give the characteristics and the related P/Ns for each wire type. For a wire type code, if there are several related P/Ns, these wires have the same structure and the P/Ns are fully interchangeable.
Tables 1-A to 1-Y give the list of the wire type codes in alphabetic sequence and the related standard P/Ns (US and Metric wire type families).
It is the wire type code which is written on the wire and not the standard P/N.
NOTE: You must use the applicable tools to strip the wires (US or Metric). Refer to ESPM chapter 20-25-11.

6. Manufacturer Identification
A. Identification by Printing of External Sheaths
This identification has a series of figures printed horizontally.
If the wire external diameter is less then 1.27 mm (0.0500 in.) , vertical printing is permitted.
(1) United States (US) wire types :
Printing (as per SPEC 451242/78) with a pitch of 300 mm (11.8110 in.) plus or minus 50 mm (1.9685 in.) pitch along the whole length of the wire. It must be of the type :
AA-BB-C-22
Example : AKA - FF - L - 20
The code consists of 4 groups of letters or figures. The groups are separated by a dash or a space.
Group 1 : Two or three letters identify the wire type code (Ref. tables 1-A to 1-Y).
e.g. AKA
Group 2 : Two letters identify the manufacturer and the country (Ref. table 2). e.g. FF (FILOTEX/FRANCE).
Group 3 : One or two letters indicate the year of manufacture (Ref. table 3).
e.g. L (1973)
Group 4 : Wire gauge.
e.g. 20
Example :
AKA - FF - L - 20
| | | |------- Wire Gauge

(2) Metric (M) wire types :
(a) ASN/NSA Standard P/Ns
Group 3 : One letter indicates the coating code for laser marking (Ref. table 4).
e.g. C (FEP)
Group 4 : Two letters identify the country of manufacture (Ref. table 2).
e.g. FR (FRANCE)
Group 5 : One letter identifies the manufacturer (Ref. table 2).
e.g. A (FILECA)
Group 6 : Two numbers indicate the year of manufacture (Ref. table 3).
e.g. 91 (1991)

NOTE: The code N is obsolete for cables. When you see this on a cable it is the some as BK.
3. Cable Number
All cables connected on the aircraft must be identified. It is the functional identification of the cable.
NOTE: If necessary, one more figure is added after these two groups to identify the color of the cable.
If necessary, one more figure is added (letter "S") to identify the safety cable.
NOTE: Some cables have the FIN 0000-000X. These cables do not have an electrical function. They are used to increase the diameter of the harness to which they belong.

B. Cable Marking
Cable marking procedures depend on the category of the cables.
There are three main categories of cable:
- Printable cables.
- Non-printable cables.
- Cables without marking.
(1) Printable cables
(Ref. Fig. 001)
(a) Definition
Printable cables are identified by direct marking of the identification on the insulation, at regular intervals.
NOTE: You must install identification sleeves on branches and junctions (only if branch and junction lengths are more than
1 m (3.28 ft.) ).
NOTE: If the harness has no branches, you must attach a VB marking to the harness at intervals of
2 m (6.56 ft.) . This is not applicable if the harness is supplied in raceways or if other interval values are specified in the design document.
(b) Operation
Cables are identified with sleeves NSA937201.
-------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: When a safety cable is in aluminum, the sleeve must be pink and printed in black.
1 Single-core cables
(Ref. Fig. 002)
- These cables are identified with sleeves NSA 937201 ME.
- Sleeve length must be between
25 mm (0.9842 in.) and 35 mm (1.3779 in.) .
2 Sheathed multi-core cables (cores of different colors)
(Ref. Fig. 003)
a The multi-core cable and the cores have different identification markings (only A300 / A300-600 / A310).
The cable will have one (or several) sleeve at each end with the information below:
- the identification of each cable with its color code,
- the identification of the assembly (the multi-core cable).
b The multi-core cable and the cores have the same identification marking (A320 to A380 family).
The color code is used to connect the cables (cables of the same color).
3 Sheathed multi-core cables (cores of same color)
(Ref. Fig. 002)
(only A300 / A300-600 / A310)
Each cable has an identification number.
If the cable is shielded, the shield will also have an identification sleeve.
4 Twisted cables without sheath
(Ref. Fig. 002)
NOTE: You can use sleeves to identify the optical cable, because they are easy to make. If you use a shrink sleeve, do not shrink it after installation.
NOTE: A specific label ABS0724 or NSA931025 is installed adjacent to the optical connectors to show the special precautions related to this type of connector.
NOTE: You must not use cable ties to attach the label. This can cause damage to the cable.
NOTE: For labels and sleeves, all colors are permitted except pink and red.
The number of repairs on a coaxial cable is identified adjacent to the end component with:
- E0248 label or equivalent,
- E0683 self-adhesive label or equivalent.
If the above labels are not available, you can use NSA937201 sleeve or equivalent (not shrunk).
(7) Cables without markings
- Very short cables shorter than
75 mm (2.9527 in.) and ground pick-up cables (ferrule-to- ferrule or to connector) are not identified.
- Cables used for circuit breaker monitoring (only for A320 program),
- Monitoring cables between two adjacent "in-line" circuit breakers (only for A330, A340 and A380),
- Cables in small VUs (BF type - flexible cables) are not printable.
- Bonding cables shorter than
300 mm (11.8110 in.) .
Figure 001.1 / Graphic SH 001.1 Cable Functional Identification - Example for Printable Cables
Figure 002.1 / Graphic SH 002.1 Cable Functional Identification - Example for Non-Printable Cables
Figure 003.1 / Graphic SH 003.1 Cable Functional Identification - Example for Non-Printable Cables
Figure 004.1 / Graphic SH 004.1 Cable Functional Identification - Specific Identification Marking
(1) Harness
A harness is a group of cables attached together.
All cables are identified (Ref. chapter 20-32-22).
A vendor or the airframe manufacturer can supply some harnesses (for example in some radio or fuel systems). Such harnesses will have a FIN and will be identified as all other components.
If supplied by a vendor (code YY), it will have a part number.
If made by the airframe manufacturer, it will have a drawing number.
Only the graphic symbol on the wiring diagram will identify the difference between two such cases.
(2) Wiring segregations or routes
For safety and to prevent possible interference, electrical harnesses are routed in relation to their type and function in a number of physically isolated routes. These wiring segregations or routes are divided into categories related to
the aircraft type.
A 2-digit reference is used to identify these categories (Ref. chapter 20-33-20).
2. Harness identification
A. Principle
Flags and labels on harnesses give many types of data:
- Positioning data such as the frame:
These positioning flags give harness pick-up points for correct installation of the harness on the aircraft.
- Functional data (routes, sub-routes):
These functional identification labels must show the routes in the harness and be in a position to prevent all risks of errors caused by in-service retrofit work.
- Functional Item Number (FIN) identification at harness end:
You must identify harness ends with E0248A labels (4 holes) where the identification of the end is shown.
For typical harnesses, these labels are white with black printing and are attached with two cable ties NSA935401.
NOTE: In severe environment areas, you must use and attach labels E0248A (6 holes) with three cable ties NSA935401.
NOTE: Positioning flags must stay in position on the aircraft and not be moved from their initial position.
NOTE: Labels for route identification can be bonded on the structure (frame).
NOTE: Positioning flags must stay in position on the aircraft and not be moved from their initial position.
NOTE: If, adjacent to the last clamp, the last identification is with a white label E0248, label ASNA5107 is only used to increase the mechanical protection of the harness below the clamp and the positioning flag.
NOTE: As an alternative, you can use a sleeve (e.g. NSA937201ME) but you must not shrink it.
NOTE: A special label ABS0724 or NSA931025 is installed adjacent to the optical connectors to show special precautions related to this type of connector.

Figure 005.1 / Graphic SH 005.1 Harness Functional Identification - Flag Installation on Optical Cables
NOTE: Boxes, panels or equipment containing parts with voltages exceeding 42 V which are liable to expose maintenance personnel to hazardous operations must have a label reading: "CAUTION HIGH VOLTAGE INSIDE". This label must
have
6 mm (0.2362 in.) white letters on a red background.
NOTE: Identical components which have the same function in the same circuit are differentiated by a suffix number.
The general rule is that an even suffix identifies a component on the right-hand side and an odd suffix identifies a component on the left-hand side.
Example: 14CA1
Example: nnnnVBnnn
- The 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th numerical digits indicate the partner allocation number.
- The two-letter code indicates the fictitious circuit (V) and the type of component.
- The last three numbers indicate the multiple elements of the component. (It is possible to use only one number)
(c) For circuit VU, the FIN format consists of 7 to 9 digits:
Example: 1115VU1
- The 1st and 2nd numerical digits indicate the partner allocation number.
- The 3rd and 4th numerical digits (00) indicate a main assembly containing sub-assemblies.
- For the 4th digit:
An odd number indicates the left side. (Except 5)
An even number indicates the right side.
Number "5" indicates a panel located on the aircraft centerline.
- The two-letter code indicates the fictitious circuit (V) and the type of component (U).
- The last three numbers indicate the multiple elements of the component. (It is possible to use only one number)
B. Fictitious Circuit (letter V)
Fictitious circuits (letter V) are allocated to types of components that cannot be identified as part of a specific system circuit.
(1) The codes of these fictitious circuits are:
VB = Cable bundle/harness
VC = Connector (appended letter A, B, etc. is added to identify the free connector: E.g. 1204VC A)
NOTE: For A380, there is no space or dash before the appended letter.
- The EFCS harnesses and the different VU panels to which they are connected.
The EFCS harnesses and equipment are clearly identified by a pink or red mark.
Identification of each item is made by a permanent label that shows the functional item number. (FIN)
3. Electrical Items Functional-Identification Marking
(Ref. Fig. 001)
(Ref. Fig. 002)
(Ref. Fig. 003)
(Ref. Fig. 004)
The ways to mark the items depend on the item categories and location.
There are three ways to mark:
- Self-adhesive label (ABS0724, E0470, E0683 or NSA931025).
- Identification Sleeve (E0646, NSA937201 or NSA937203).
The functional identification of equipment may be given on white sleeves when it is difficult to install labels near the equipment.
These sleeves must be positioned immediately after the identification of the connector, or include this identification.
Functional identification sleeves must be fitted where equipment is removable from its front face.
- Identification label (ABS1475 or E0248) with NSA935401 (TY-RAP type).
NOTE: If reading of the label proves to be difficult during the maintenance operation, or in case of ambiguity, a second label that shows the type of equipment as indicated on the wiring diagram will also be added to the loom.
The ways to mark must be designed taking into account temperature ranges and environmental constraints.
NOTE: In non-pressurized area, it is necessary to bond label with material number 09-008C and to apply varnish material number 07-018 to the label.
Bond a self-adhesive label to the support near the ground module or point.
(d) Stud-type or modular terminal blocks (VT)
The terminal blocks are identified by a label fixed to the support, near the rail.
(e) Miscellaneous equipment
On circuit breakers or coded equipment items directly connected on aircraft, etc. install a self-adhesive label on the support near the equipment.
NOTE: Relays with the spike suppression function must be identified with an additional blue mark on the structure adjacent to the FIN label.
(f) Relays
1 On A380:
- Use identification label ABS0724-006A013 for Normal relays on Normal system. (Label has white background with black letters)
- Use identification label ABS0724-006P013 for Normal relays on EFCS system. (Label has pink background with black letters)
- Use identification label ABS0724-006B013 for spike suppression relay on Normal system. (Label has blue background with black letters)
- Use identification label ABS0724-006 for spike suppressioN relay on EFCS system. (Label has blue and pink background with black letters)
(g) Specific Items
All specific EFCS equipment items (connectors, terminal blocks, relays) are identified clearly and permanently with a pink or red adhesive label (E0248) bonded to the structure near each item.
B. Item Identification on Cable Bundles
(Ref. Fig. 005)
(Ref. Fig. 006)
(1) Marking type
Bundles of items are identified:
- For cables subjected to temperatures above
150 deg.C (302.00 deg.F) , with E0248 labels and NSA935401 cable-tie (TY-RAP type).
- For wiring subjected to temperatures above
260 deg.C (500.00 deg.F) , with NSA937201 sleeves.
This identification sleeve or label has:
- In all cases, the FIN of the item.
- When the bundle ends in a VU, the VU number.
- And if necessary, the functional designation.
- On harness with diameter less than
5 mm (0.1968 in.) , the identification label must be replaced by a sleeve NSA937201.
NOTE: In vibration areas or in Severe Weather and Moisture Prone (SWAMP) areas, you must use a label E0248 16HP (6 holes) with three tie-wrap NSA935401.
NOTE: It is necessary to shrink the sleeves in electrical power centers or in areas that have severe environnemental conditions.
NOTE: Identification sleeves must be in a position as near as possible to the connection you must identify (max. distance
100 mm (3.9370 in.) ). If necessary, you can attach these sleeves with cable ties to prevent sliding.
NOTE: Identification sleeves can be shrunk. In this case, it must still be possible to turn, slide and read them.
(2) Operation
These types of marking are made of plastic.
They are white for standard bundles or pink for the bundles of EFCS items, with FIN marking in black.
They are installed on the cable bundle at 130 mm (5.1181 in.) maximum from the end.
If the harness has no branch, you must attach a VB marking to the harness at intervals of 2 m (6.56 ft.) . This is not applicable if the harness is supplied in raceways and if other interval values are specified in the design documents.
Labels are not necessary on branches shorter than 1 m (3.28 ft.) .
Their position on the bundle will make correct reading possible when the bundle terminations are connected.
Safety cables are identified by a pink colored sleeve or with the letter "S" printed at the end of the P/N. (E.g.: 3151-0309S)
NOTE: When segregation is required, the identification is installed on one bundle and does not include the other routes.
Install an identification label E0248 on the ARINC 600 and 404A connectors (ABS0831, E0161, E0163, E0165, E0086, E0145, E0147, E0726 and E0729 ) or derived connectors.
(b) Optical connectors
(Ref. Fig. 007)
- A specific label ABS0724 or NSA931025 is installed near the optical connectors to indicate particular precautions related to this type of connector.
NOTE: You must use lacing tape NSA8420 to attach the identification labels. The use of NSA935401 is not permitted to prevent damage to optical fiber harnesses.
NOTE: To make installation of the identification easier, the use of a sleeve is permitted. If you use a shrink sleeve, you must not shrink it to prevent damage.
NOTE: If the splice is inside a split textile conduit, the identification label must be over the split textile conduit.
3 Reducing splices
No identification sleeve.
(f) Diode
A diode is identified by a sleeve NSA935201, on the cable, positioned alongside the diode.
(g) Pressure Seal (VP)
The pressure seals through which the cable bundle is routed are identified by two E0248 labels with NSA935401 (TY-RAP type), one on each side of the seal.
(h) Coded equipment items directly connected on aircraft
With or without cut-to-length: Install a label E0248.
(i) Specific items
All specific EFCS equipment items (connectors, terminal blocks, relays, circuit-breakers) are clearly and permanently identified with pink or red labels (E0248) printed in black, which are indelible and clearly visible and bonded to
the structure near the items.
(j) Shielding continuity connection
CAUTION: DO NOT USE METAL LABELS IN BOXES THAT CONTAIN ELECTRICAL ITEMS AND WIRING. IF THERE IS CHAFING OF THE CABLE INSULATION OR THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS, SUCH LABELS CAN
CAUSE SHORT CIRCUITS.
NOTE: A large VU is an electrical assembly consisting only of CF/DM/DR-type cables where the radius of curvature is equal to 6xD.
A small VU is an electrical assembly consisting mainly of BF-type cables with low radius of curvature equal to 3xD.
The electrical boxes have a label E0470 with the VU identification Number and a label NSA931025 with the Aircraft Number (MSN)
(2) Small VUs
In small VUs, the cables (BF or CF type) have the sleeve E0646MF (EX NSA937204 MF) marked with the identification of the connection terminal of the related end.
But this type of sleeve is not used for the items below:
- Cut-off receptacle (VC)
- Modular terminal blocks (VT)
- Ground point (VN)
- Illuminated VU plugs (LF)
- Diode module (VD)
