APPLICATION AND DESCRIPTION

G7621 A2 communication cables are intended for fixed trackside bracket runs. Type 1 uses a PVC sheath for open locations, while Type 2 uses an LSZH sheath for tunnel or underground installations. Solid plain copper conductors with cellular PE insulation are twisted into pairs and wrapped in non-hygroscopic tape. The dimensions table lists one-pair and three-pair Type 1 constructions.

STANDARD

KEY FEATURES

  • Solid copper conductors in 0.63 mm and 0.9 mm nominal diameters.

  • Cellular PE insulation and a violet PVC or LSZH sheath.

  • Separate Type 1 and Type 2 references under LUL Spec G7621 A2.

SELECTION NOTES

Select the sheath type for the installation location, then specify conductor diameter and pair count. The four dimension rows identify Type 1 cable codes; specify the Type 2 construction explicitly for an LSZH requirement. Distinguish the installation temperature range from the wider service range when planning cable laying.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How do Type 1 and Type 2 differ?

Type 1 has a PVC sheath for open locations. Type 2 uses an LSZH sheath for tunnels and underground locations.

Which conductor sizes are listed?

Nominal conductor diameters of 0.63 mm and 0.9 mm. These figures describe diameter rather than cross-sectional area.

Which pair counts appear in the dimensions table?

One-pair and three-pair Type 1 cables, each listed for both conductor diameters.

What colours identify the three pairs?

Blue/white, orange/white and green/white.

What temperature limits apply during installation?

The listed installation range is −10°C to +55°C; the operating range is −30°C to +70°C.
