Product Detail

Primarily used for overhead service applications such as street lighting, outdoor lighting, and temporary service for construction.

 

1. Product Overview

Primarily used for overhead service applications such as street lighting, outdoor lighting, and temporary service for construction. To be used at voltages of 1000 volts phase - to - phase or less and at conductor temperatures not to exceed 70°C for polyethylene (PE) and Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) insulated conductors or 90°C for cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulated conductors.

 

2. Standard

GB/T 12527（Equivalent to IEC 60502-1）Aerial Insulated Cables for Rated Voltages up to and Including 1kV
IEC 60228 Conductors of insulated cables 

3. Construction

Component

Description from source webpage

Conductor

Stranded, circular-compacted or uncompacted aluminum, copper, aluminum-alloy, ACSR, etc.

Insulation

Thermoplastic polyethylene (PE), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), or cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE).

Colour / weather resistance

Insulation is black and weather- and UV-resistant, as stated on the webpage.

Auxiliary core (k)

The auxiliary core k is a load-bearing core or a neutral core with a load. Its cross-section is optional to match the main core according to factory requirements.

Core notation

(A) means steel-carrying stranded wire; (B) means aluminum-alloy-carrying stranded wire.
