PIRELLI EARTHSHIELD AND LSX
A NEW APPROACH TO MECHANICALLY AND ELECTRICALLY
PROTECTED CABLES
![Page 2: PIRELLI EARTHSHIELD AND LSX A NEW APPROACH TO MECHANICALLY AND ELECTRICALLY PROTECTED CABLES.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012916/56649f305503460f94c4b22d/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
• A small, lightweight, robust, easy to install cable system offering mechanical and electrical protection through an earth metallic covering
• A cost effective solution for many small power and lighting applications
• 300/500V grade (Earthshield) or 600/1000V grade (LSX)

LSX - KEY FEATURES
• Ease of installation
• Lightweight – Typically 60% reduction on equivalent armoured cable or 30% on equivalent MICC cable
• Small diameter – Typically 30% reduction on equivalent armoured cable
• Improved current ratings – 90ºC insulation system
• Earthing – Full size CPC automatically earths metallic screen

LSX – Ease of installation
• Dressable construction offers a combination of rigidity and ease of bending, ideal for surface mounting or tray installation
• Easy to strip and terminate without special tools
• Easy to gland with metal or IP68 plastic glands (indoor or outdoor)
•Suitable for indoor and outdoor installation (with suitable sheath colour)
• Installed cost savings compared with armoured or MICC types

LSX – Exceptional fire performance
• Low smoke emission BS EN 50268 (BS7622)
• Low acid gas emission BS EN 50267-2-1(less than 0.5%)
(BS6425-1)
• Low acidity of emissions BS EN 50267-2-3 (BS6425-2)
• Flame retardant BS EN 50265-2-1 (BS4066-1)
• Reduced flame propagation BS EN 50266-2-4 (BS4066-3)

LSX – Electrical Protection
• Protection from accidental penetration by nails, screws and the like
• Means of compiance with clause 522-06-06 of BS7671/IEE Wiring regulations
• Independently tested by ERA Technology under nail penetration conditions
• Will be recognised as giving equivalent protection as armoured or concentric cable in AMD 2 to BS7671:2001
• New standard BS8436
