PAS 5308 Cable Part 1 Type 2 PE-OS-SWA-PVC
Applications
These cables are designed to connect electrical instrumentation and communication systems in and around process plants and similar applications. Generally used to transmit analogue or digital signals in measurement and process control where chemicals may be present. The armoured version are well adapted to underground use in industrial applications where chemical and mechanical protections are needed (refinery areas, chemical plant...).
Construction
| Conductor |
Annealed copper, sizes: 0.5mm^2 mulitistranded(Class 5), 0.5 mm^2 and 1.0 mm^2 solid(Class 1), 1.5mm^2 or 2.5 multistranded(Class 2) to BS EN 60228 |
| Insulation |
thermoplastic PE to BS EN 50290-2-23:2002, grade L/MD or a cross-linked PE to BS EN 50290-2-29 |
| Pairing |
Two insulated conductors uniformly twisted together with a lay not exceeding 100mm, Two-pair cables without individual pair screens (quads) shall have four cores laid in quad formation round a central dummy |
