APPLICATION
The PVC versions (Part 1 Type 1&2) are generally use for indoor installation and suitable for wet and damp
areas. Generally used within industrial process manufacturing plants for communication, data and voice
transmission signals and services.
STANDARDS
Basic design adapted to BS 5308 Part1 Type 1 & 2

Note: Asterisk ** denotes that the standard compliance is optional, depending on the oxygen index of the PVC
compound and the cable design.
VOLTAGE RATING
300/500V
CABLE CONSTRUCTION
Conductor: Plain annealed copper wire, stranded according to IEC(EN) 60228 class 2 and 5 .
Insulation: Extruded cross-linked XLPE compound.
Overall Screen: Aluminium/polyester tape with 0.5mm2 screen (7/0.3mm) tinned copper drain wire.
Inner Sheath(optional): PVC compound
Armouring(optional): Galvanised steel wire
Outer Sheath: 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 the oxygen index of the PVC compound and the overall cable
design. LSPVC can also be provided upon request.
