Drop Wire No. 12, 10B, CAD55M & 10 to CW 1406, CW 1411,CW 1417 & CW 1378
Application:
The drop wires are designed for use in local area network to link between pole and building or two buildings. The high tensile steel strength member wires are incorporated inside the cable to provide support. The cables can be used for crossing high voltage cables up to 11kV.
Standards:
CW 1406 (Drop Wires No.12 1 pair)
CW 1411 (Drop Wires No.10B 2 pairs)
CW 1417 (Drop Wires CAD55M 4 pairs)
CW 1378 (Drop Wires No.10 2 pairs)
Construction:
Conductors: Solid annealed bare copper of 0.5/0.9mm as per class 1 of BS 6360/IEC 60228
Insulation: Solid low or medium density Polyethylene (CW 1406, CW 1411 & CW 1417) or Polyvinyl Chloride (CW 1378) to BS 7878
Core Wrapping: 23 micron Polyester Tape
Strength Member: 1 Pair: 1 element of 3 x 0.41mm brass coated steel strength member; PVC insulated to 1.4mm 2 & 4 Pairs: 3 elements of 3 x 0.25mm brass coated steel strength member; PVC insulated to 1.0mm
