The Doncaster Cables Data sheet says that their 6181Y cables including the 19 strand 25mm2 cables are either class 1 or 2. As the smaller sizes are single strand the rest according to Doncaster are Class 2. "Plain Annealed Copper Class 1 or 2 to BS EN 60228 "
The data sheet is a bit awkward to find http://www.doncastercables.com/uploads/6181Y_Datasheet.pdf
Its described as a National Type. Does this give them some wiggle room. OFC no one would quibble with the termination of a 6mm2 6181Y cable in a consumer unit. This has 7 strands of small diameter than the 19 strand 25mm2 - perhaps there is a clue here.
I have used this cable too and I agree its much easier to use than the 7 strand. I did ask Wylex about it but am still awaiting a response.....
