Description
Uo/U(Um): 0.6/1(1.2)kV
Halogen free
Fire retardant
Amoured cables
Standards
International : IEC 60228National : NF C 15-100; NF C 32-323
Description
Application
ALSECURE® A are armoured cables designed to be used in private residences or public areas, in all premises open to the public, in transport infrastructures (tunnels, airports, subways ...) and industries, for power circuits where cable integrity can be threat by macanical impacts.
ALSECURE® A cables are fire retardant, low smoke and halogen free. In the event of fire, emitted gases are non corrosive and have a very low toxicity.
Installation
ALSECURE® A cables will be installed in accordance with the current regulation.
In case of laying operation between 0°C and -10°C, warm up the cables in a heated room 48 hours minimum before installation.

COMPLEMENTS
Current rating capacities
The data are indicated for continuous duty operation and apply to:
- Maximum conductor temperature = 90 °C
- Nominal frequencies = 50 or 60 Hz
- One cable in free air (on perforated trays)
- Ambient temperature = 30 °C
Data recording from IEC 60364-5-52 or NF C 15-100
Voltage drop
The data are based on Cos ø = 0.8
Minimum bending radius
