Quadruplex Aluminum Service Drop Cable Application
Quadruplex AluminumService Drop Cable used to supply 3-phase power, usually from a polemounted transformer, to the user's service head where connection to the service entrance cable is made. To be used at voltages of 600 volts phase-tophase or less and at conductor temperatures not to
exceed 75°C for polyethylene insulated conductors or 90°C for crosslinked polyethylene (XLP) insulated conductors
