APPLICATION

600/1000V single core PVC insulated PVC sheathed unarmoured cable is designed for fixed low voltage power distribution.


It is suitable for industrial plants, commercial buildings, control panels, distribution boards and general electrical installations.


The PVC insulation provides reliable electrical insulation for low voltage power circuits.


The PVC outer sheath provides general protection for fixed installation environments.


As an unarmoured cable, it does not provide metallic mechanical protection.


It is suitable for cable tray, conduit, trunking, duct and other protected cable routes.


It is not recommended for direct burial without additional mechanical protection.


The cable should be selected according to voltage rating, conductor size, conductor material, installation method and project specification.
