Cu/XLPE/PVC/AWA/PVC

Uo/U  - 0.6/1 kV BS 5467-1997
Cu conductors • XLPE insulation • PVC sheath • Armour Al wires • PVC sheath
Application
The single-core power cables with insulation of cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) type LSOH are flame retardant, with low halogen free smoke emission and corrosion at fire conditions and are suitable for use in electrical installations for nominal voltage Uo/U 0.6/1 kV.
 
Cables are designed with sheath, which does not contain halogen materials, flame retardant, free smoke emission and corrosion, and non-magnetic armor of Al wires. They are suitable for use in distribution networks, electrical power stations and substations.
 
These cables are for fixed assembly in lines with unlimited difference levels, for laying in industrial sites, indoor installations, in cable ducts, conduits and shafts, over shelves and grills directly underground in ditch and outdoor shelter.
