CONSTRUCTION OF THE CABLE

CONDUCTORS Current carrying component of the cable.

Material Plain, stranded, compacted copper as per IEC: 60228

Aluminium, stranded, compacted conductors

INSULATION The rated voltage level of the cable depends on the dielectric strength and thickness of the insulation.

Material Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) Type GP8 as per BS

7655: Section 1.3.

FILLERS For providing circular shape to the cable, non-hygroscopic compatible fillers (wherever necessary) are

included between laid up cores.

BEDDING Extruded bedding serves as a bedding for the armour and as a protection for the laid-up cores.

Material Extruded PVC Type 9 Compound as per BS 7655. Reduced propagation flame retardant (RPLHCL)/R PPVC

Compound for reduced flame propagation characteristics.

ARMOUR Armour provides mechanical protection to the cable. It also serves as an Earth Continuity Conductor (ECC).

One layer of round wire is applied helically over the bedding.

Material 1. Galvanised round steel wire (GSWA) - FOR MULTICORE CABLE

2. Aluminium round wire armour (AWA) - FOR SINGLE CORE.

OVERSHEATH - FINISH General Purpose: Extruded PVC Type 9 Compound as per BS 7655 and also meet fire test requirement of IEC

60332-1.

Material 1. Medium Density Polyethylene (MDPE): Offers higher protection from water ingress and mechanical

abrasion.

2. Anti-Termite: Termite resistance can be built in both types described above by compounding with proper

additives.

3. Reduced Propagation (RP): Retards propagation of flame in fire situatio . O ge I de ≈ 3

4. Reduced Propagation and Low Acid Fumes (RPLHCL): Retards propagation of flames and gives low emission

of h drochloric acid fu es. OI ≈ 3 & acid gas e issio is less tha 8%
