CABLE CONSTRUCTION

Conductor	Annealed copper wire, stranded according to BS 6360 class 2.
Insulation	PVC TI 1 according to BS 7655-3.1.
Bedding	Extruded PVC or taped bedding comprising two or more layers of PVC tape or other synthetic tape (for cables having a nominal conductor area of 16mm² and above).
Armouring	Galvanized steel wire
Outer Sheath	PVC TM 1 according to BS 7655-4.1.
Outer Sheath Option	UV resistance, hydrocarbon resistance, oil resistance, anti rodent and anti termite properties can be offered as option. Compliance to fire performance standard (IEC 60332-1, IEC 60332-3, UL 1581, UL 1666 etc) depends on the oxygen index of the PVC compound and the overall cable design. LSPVC can also be provided upon request.
