600/1000V single core PVC insulated PVC sheathed armoured cable is designed for fixed low voltage power distribution.
It is suitable for industrial plants, commercial buildings, power stations, substations and infrastructure projects.
The PVC insulation provides reliable electrical insulation for low voltage power circuits.
The PVC outer sheath provides general protection against moisture, abrasion and normal installation conditions.
The armoured construction provides improved mechanical protection.
It is suitable for underground cable routes, cable trenches, cable ducts and outdoor installation.
The final installation should follow project specifications and local installation requirements.
The cable should be selected according to voltage rating, conductor size, conductor material, armour type, installation method
and project specification.
