Standards / Testing Specications Detail Description or Construction

Single cross-linked polyethylene insulated conductor of stranded copper or aluminum, with aluminum wire armor and thermoplastic jacket of PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride). IEC 60502-1

Marking
0.6/1 KV XLPE/AWA/PVC A x B SQ.MM., PHELPS DODGE A = Number of cores B = Size of conductor (SQ.MM.)

Application
For use in ducts, trays and direct burial in ground. The cable is subject to immerse in water all the time.

Installation
Low voltage power cable can be installed in duct, tray or direct burial. It is recommended that the installation instructions indicated by the Local Electric Code, or any equivalent, be followed, so that the safeguarding of persons and the integrity of the product will not be affected by deciencies in the installation.
