ZPAU & ZPAU-SH Main Signalling Cables (AC Electrifi ed Lines)
Application:
The cables are designed for connection between traffi c control centers and equipment shelters along the trackside. The cables are specially designed to give good induction protection (R.F= 0.26 at inductive voltage 100V/km) and are suitable for installation in intercity railways electrifi ed at 25KV ac.
Standards:
SNCF CT 445 / SNCT ST 698G
NF F 55-698
Construction:
Conductors: Solid annealed copper, 1.0/1.5 mm² nominal cross section area.
Insulation: Solid polyethylene.
Cabling Element: Each two conductors are twisted together to form a pair.
Stranding: Pairs are helically stranded in layers to form the cable core.
Core Wrapping: Plastic tape(s) with overlapping.
Inner Sheath: PE sheath. LSZH FR option can be offered upon request to NF C 32 070.2.2 (C1).
Electrostatic Shield: One corrugated copper tape.
Intermediate Sheath: PE/PVC sheath. LSZH FR option can be offered upon request to NF C 32 070.2.2 (C1).
Electromagnetic Shield: Two helically applied steel tapes of 0.5mm.
Outer Sheath: PE/PVC Sheath. LSZH FR option can be offered upon request to NF C 32 070.2.2 (C1).
Remarks: ZPAU: PE/PVC Sheath; ZPAU-SH: LSZH Sheath.
