6 Princeton Single Aluminum Conductor Underground Direct Burial 600V URD

Allowable Ampacity for 6 Princeton Single Aluminum Conductor Underground Direct Burial 600V URD: 90 Amps

Applications:

The Aluminum 600V URD is used for secondary power distribution and can be installed in direct burial or duct applications. Its durable insulation and strong conductors make it reliable for outdoor environments. Suitable for both wet and dry locations, it operates at a maximum temperature of 90°C. This cable also allows for pre-pulling into ducts for easier installation.

• This cable is commonly used as a neutral or grounding conductor in underground secondary distribution systems.
• It is often installed in service drops to deliver power from utility transformers to residential and commercial buildings.
• It supports backup power systems by distributing electricity from emergency generators or substations to critical infrastructure.
• This conductor is also used in renewable energy tie-ins to connect solar or wind power systems to the local electrical grid or battery storage units.

Construction

Conductors:

This is an aluminum conductor cable. The conductor is designed in two forms: either concentric strand or compressed. The stranded type tends to be more flexible compared to the compressed series of aluminum conductors. The 1350-H19 series of compressed aluminum conductors are suitable for applications where flexibility is overlooked and cable rigidity is guaranteed.

Insulation:

Aluminum 600V URD cable has black resistant cross-linked polyethylene (XLP) insulation. The conductors are normally cabled together with XLP insulated aluminum ground or bare copper ground and covered with reinforced binder tape. XLP insulation is tough and resistant to impact, abrasion, chemicals, acids, oils, industrial solvents, and changes in weather.
