VOLTAGE RATING 600/1000V CABLE CONSTRUCTION Conductor: Plain annealed copper wire, stranded according to IEC(EN) 60228 class 2. Insulation: Extruded cross-linked XLPE compound. Inner Sheatd(optional): PVC Compound Armouring(optional): Galvanized Steel Wire Outer Sheatd: 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 tde oxygen index of tde PVC compound and tde overall cable design. LSPVC can also be provided upon request.
