Product Information

Specification

About:

This cable is typically used for transmitting electricity in medium voltage applications. It's known for its high resistance to electrical stresses and environmental conditions.

Also Known As:

• Medium Voltage Power Cable
• 15KV Aluminum Cable
• Unshielded Power Cable

Application:

• Okoguard URO cables provide excellent circuit longevity in underground residential distribution systems. They can be buried direct or installed in underground ducts or conduits.

Standards:

• This cable meets specific IEEE standards for medium voltage cables.
• It may also adhere to ANSI and other industry-specific standards concerning flame retardancy, oil resistance, and temperature ratings.

Construction:

• Central Conductor: Aluminum per ASTM B-609, Class B stranded per B-231.
• Conductor Screen: Extruded semiconducting ethylene-propylene rubber meets or
exceeds the requirements of ICEA S-94-649 and AEIC CS8.
• Insulation: Extruded Okoguard meets or exceeds the requirements of ICEA S-94-649 for ethylene-propylene rubber and AEIC CS8.
• Insulation Screen: Extruded semiconducting ethylene-propylene rubber meets or exceeds the requirements of ICEA S-94-649 and AEIC CS8.
• Concentric Conductor: Bare copper wire
