600/1000 V XLPE insulated, unarmoured with copper conductor BS 7889 standard
APPLICATIONS
These cables are intended for fixed installations, indoors and outdoors, in low voltage electricity systems. They are normally used for the distribution of electrical energy in urban networks, power or switching stations, industrial plants, as well as in switchgears, in applications where there is no risk of mechanical damage.
CABLE CHARACTERISTICS
APPLICABLE STANDARDS
Low Voltage power cables are designed and tested to meet all the requirements of the latest edition of BS 7889 standard. In addition, can also supply a range of alternative designs to meet customer-specified requirements.
CABLE CONSTRUCTION
