APPLICATION

These single pair or triad instrumentation cables are constructed with heat and moisture resistant cross- linked polyethylene (XLPE) with an abrasion, oil, chemical and flame-resistant polyvinyl chloride (PVC), chlorinated polyethylene (CPE) or low smoke, zero halogen (LSZH/XLPO) jacket for use in utility substa- tion or power generation facilities.

They are recomended for indoor or outdoor applica- tions in conduit, duct, cable tray or aerial installations and NEC-compliant for continuous operation at 90°C in wet and dry locations.
