Firetox Flame Retardant Cables
600/1000V XLPE Insulated, LSZH Sheathed, Screened Power Cables (3C+3E)
FTX300 1RCZ1-R (CU/XLPE/CUTO/LSZH 600/1000V Class 2)
APPLICATION
The cables are designed specifically to suit the broad spectrum of requirements of Variable Speed Drives and
also include features for reducing the transmission of electromagnetic interference. These range of cables are
able to reduce capacitance of power conductors and have an electrically balanced construction which includes
split earths and a copper screen. This range of screened cables drastically reduce interferences from electrical
noise, especially in Variable Speed Drive (VSD) applications and are manufactured with fixed conductors.
With shield conductivity of 1/10th of phase conductor conductivity, this range of VSD cables effectively restrain
radiated and conducted radio-frequency emissions.
