Specification

Allowable Ampacity for 16 AWG 5C Bare Copper Shield Steel Braid Thermoplastic Halogen-Free FG7(O)AM1 0.6/1KV Armour Cable: 100 Amps

About:

This type of cable is engineered for secure, reliable power distribution in settings that demand robust protection against physical damage, electrical interference, and hazardous conditions arising from fire. It features 16 AWG 5-core bare copper conductors, a steel braid for mechanical protection, and a halogen-free thermoplastic sheath, making it well-suited for challenging installations where safety and performance are critical.

Also Known As:

• 16 AWG 5-Core Halogen-Free Armoured Cable
• FG7(O)AM1 Steel Braid Armoured Power Cable
• Halogen-Free Steel Braid Shielded Cable

Application:

• Used in industrial environments, especially where there is a significant risk of fire and mechanical damage, including manufacturing plants, refineries, and power generation facilities.
• Suitable for fixed installations that require flame retardant and low-smoke properties, such as public buildings, airports, hospitals, and schools.
• Power and control cable for outdoor and indoor applications, where protection against moisture, chemicals, and UV light is necessary.

Standards:

• Complies with IEC 60502-1 for the construction and testing of cables with rated voltages up to 1kV (1,000 volts) to ensure safety, reliability, and performance.
• Meets requirements for low smoke and halogen-free materials, typically adhering to standards like IEC 60754 for the assessment of halogen gas content and IEC 61034 for measuring smoke density.
