VOLTAGE RATING
600/1000 V
CABLE CONSTRUCTION
Conductor |
Plain annealed copper wire, stranded according to IEC 60228 class 2 |
Insulation |
Extruded XLPE compound |
Outer Sheath |
Thermoplastic PVC compound. UV resistance, hydrocarbon resistance, oil resistance, anti rodent and anti termite properties can be offered as option. Compliance to fire performance standard (IEC 60332-1, IEC 60332-3, UL 1581, UL 1666 etc) depends on the oxygen index of the PVC compound and the overall cable design. LSPVC can also be provided upon request |
