3.8/6.6kV Three Core Individual Screened & PVC Sheathed (Cu Conductor)

Application

3.8/6.6kV Three Core Individual Screened & PVC Sheathed (Cu Conductor) cables are designed to be used for

he supply of electrical energy in fixed applications up to the rated voltages at a nominal power frequency

between 49Hz and 61Hz.,3.8/6.6kV Three Core Individual Screened & PVC Sheathed (Cu Conductor) cables are

suitable for use in distribution installation, electrical power station , they are applied for installation, outdoors,

underground where subject to mechanical damage.

Standard

AS/NZS 1429.1

Cable Construction

CONDUCTOR: Plain circular compacted copper to AS/NZS1125

Maximum Continuous Operating Temperature: 90°C

CONDUCTOR SCREEN: Extruded semi-conducting compound, bonded to the insulation and applied in the same

operation as the insulation

INSULATION: Cross Linked Polyethylene (XLPE) – standard Ethylene Propylene Rubber (EPR) – alternative
