This product is an XLPE Insulated, PVC Sheathed Unarmoured Copper Cable with a configuration of 3 cores of 150mm² plus 2 cores of 70mm². Designed for a rated voltage of 0.6/1kV, this cable is ideal for a wide range of power distribution applications.
The 3+2 cores configuration typically indicates three phase conductors and two earth/neutral conductors, providing flexibility for installations requiring separate earth wires, often according to specific customer requirements or international standards like IEC 60502.
Applications
This XLPE insulated copper cable is versatile and suitable for various installations, particularly where a dedicated earth return or additional neutral capacity is required. Common applications include:
- General Power Distribution: For supplying power to industrial, commercial, and residential buildings.
- Two-Way Lighting Circuits: Providing the necessary additional conductors between switches operating the same light fitting.
- Installations Requiring Earth Wires: Where specific regulations or customer needs dictate the inclusion of dedicated earth conductors.
Construction Details
The cable is meticulously constructed to ensure optimal performance, durability, and safety:
- Conductor: High-quality Copper, featuring Class 2 stranded conductors for excellent flexibility and conductivity.
- Insulation: Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) provides superior dielectric strength, high operating temperature resistance, and excellent insulation properties.
- Filler: Non-hygroscopic material is used to fill the interstices between cores, ensuring a round cable profile and preventing moisture ingress.
- Binder Tape: A non-hygroscopic binder tape secures the laid-up cores.
- Outer Sheath: A robust Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) outer sheath provides mechanical protection and resistance to abrasion, moisture, and chemicals.
