Overview

Application

Underground primary residential and commercial distribution circuits.

May be used in wet or dry locations, installed in underground ducts or direct burial.

Conduction

1. Conductor: Soft annealed uncoated copper Class B compressed or unilay compressed per ASTM B8 or hard drawn aluminum Class B compressed or unilay compressed stranding per ASTM B231. On request: strand filled. Sizes: 8 AWG – 1000 kcmil. On request: larger sizes.

2. Conductor Shield: Semi conducting cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE). On request: super clean and super smooth materials.

3. Insulation: Thermoset tree-retardant cross-linked polyethylene (TR-XLPE). On request: cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE).

4. Insulation Shield: Semi conducting cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE).

5. Concentric Neutral: Soft annealed solid copper wires per ASTM B3, helically applied and uniformly spaced. Full or 1/3 Neutral. On request options: alternate neutral constructions, Water Swellable Powder (WSP), and ripcords.

6. Binder Tape: A suitable polyester tape, as required.

7. Jacket: Overlying (sleeve) black polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Configuration: Options. On request:Triplex or Paralleled configurations.
