Description
- Armoured with galvanized steel wires (SWA) or aluminium wires (AWA)
- Oil resistant
Standards
International : IEC 60228; IEC 60332-3-22 Cat.A; IEC 60502-1Description
Applications
These power and control cables are used for electricity supply in low voltage installation system. They are well adapted to underground use in industrial applications where chemical and mechanical protections are needed (refinery areas, chemical plants...).
Design
Conductor:
Solid plain copper : 1.5 to 4 mm²
Stranded plain copper : 1.5 to 630 mm²
Insulation:
Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE)
Bedding (optional):
Inner sheath acting as a filler with practically zero thickness or assembling polyester tape
Inner covering (inner sheath):
Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) Colour :black
Armour:
Galvanized steel wires (SWA) or aluminium wires (AWA) for 1 core cable
Outer sheath:
Polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Colour: black. Other colour on request.
Core identification
1 core: black
2x to 5G cores: according to HD 308 S2
Above 5 cores: black core printed with white number.
Marking
