Ordinary duty cords/flexibles are used where the risk of mechanical damage and mechanical stresses is normal, i.e. when cables are subject to low mechanical stresses in the areas of application, and the risk of mechanical damage is low, as is the case to be expected in the normal use of small to medium size equipment in domestic and commercial as well as in light industrial premises.
Examples of appliances that need ordinary duty cables include vacuum cleaners, toasters, washing machines, refridgerators, dryers and televisions.
