Construction:

Conductor:Class B compressed stranded bare or tinned copper per ASTM B3, ASTM B8, ASTM B33
Binder Tape:Mylar Tape
Insulation:Ethylene Propylene Rubber (EPR) Type RHH/RHW-2
Overall Jacket:Cross-linked/Thermoset Chlorinated Polyethylene (CPE-TS) Jacket

Applications and Features:

Southwire’s 2000 Volt power cables are suited for use in wet and dry areas, conduits, ducts, troughs, trays, aerial supported by a messenger, and where superior electrical properties are desired. These cables are capable of operating continuously at the conductor temperature not in excess of 90°C for normal operation in wet and dry locations, 130°C for emergency overload, and 250°C for short circuit conditions. For uses in Class I, II, and III, Division 2 hazardous locations per NEC Article 501 and 502.

Specifications:

ASTM B3 Standard Specification for Soft or Annealed Copper Wire

ASTM B8 Concentric-Lay-Stranded Copper Conductors

ASTM B33 Standard Specification for Tin-Coated Soft or Annealed Copper Wire

UL 44 Thermoset-Insulated Wires and Cables

UL 1685 Vertical-Tray Fire Propagation and Smoke Release Test
