6 AWG 2C Stranded Tinned Copper Shielded Braid Halogen-Free GAALSHIP BFOU 0.6/1 kV Offshore Cable

Allowable Ampacity for 6 AWG 2C Stranded Tinned Copper Shielded Braid Halogen-Free GAALSHIP BFOU 0.6/1 kV Offshore Cable: 100 Amps

About:

This cable is designed for electrical installations where high resistance to environmental hazards like moisture, oil, and chemical exposure is critical. It features two conductors, making it suitable for various power and control applications in offshore settings.

Also Known As:

This type of cable might also be identified as "6 AWG 2-Core Marine Cable," "Halogen-Free Offshore Cable," or "Double Conductor BFOU Cable."

Application:

• Power and control circuits in offshore platforms, drilling rigs, and ships.
• Instrumentation wiring in marine environments where space is limited but safety cannot be compromised.
• Emergency and critical systems that require continued operation during fires.

Standards:

• Complies with the GAALSHIP BFOU specifications, which indicate robust performance in offshore environments.
• Fire resistant as per IEC 60332-3-22; halogen-free in accordance with IEC 60754-1/2; and low smoke production according to IEC 61034.
