U-1000 ARVFV Industrial Cable Application
The U-1000 ARVFV armoured aluminium cables can be used in all low voltage power installations. This product is used in photovoltaic applications. These cables are suitable for direct burial without additional protection , for installation on cable trays or in conducts where mechanical protection is necessary.
U-1000 ARVFV Industrial Cable Standard:
NF C 32-322
CONSTRUCTION :
U-1000 ARVFV Industrial Cable Construction
Conductor: Aluminum conductor,Strands to IEC 60228 class 2
Insulation: Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation type XLPE according to IEC 60502-1.
Armour bedding: Black extruded PVC separation sheath.
Armour: Double steel or aluminium tape armour. Aluminium armour is used in single-core cables to avoid parasite currents that may overheat the cable. Steel tape is used in the multicore cables.Outer sheath: Flexible PVC outer sheath, Black colour.
The standard identification of insulated conductors is the following:
1 x Natural
2 x Blue + Brown
3 G Blue + Brown + Green/Yellow
3 x Brown + Black + Grey
3 x + 1 x Brown + Black + Grey + Blue (reduced cross-section)
4 G Brown + Black + Grey + Green/Yellow
4 x Brown + Black + Grey + Blue
5 G Brown + Black + Grey + Blue + Green/Yellow
6 or more Black numbered + Green/Yellow
