Allowable Ampacity for 571-31-3618 4/0 AWG 3C Stranded 3#8 Gnd Bare Copper Shield X-Olene Aluminum Sheath PVC C-L-X CSA RA90 HL 1000V Power Cable:100 Amps

About:

This specific power cable is a multi-conductor cable designed for robust and reliable performance in various demanding applications. It combines a additional grounding and shielding to ensure safety, flexibility, and durability

Also Known As:

• C-L-X Power Cable
• HL (Hazardous Locations) Power Cable
• RA90 (Residential Aluminum) Power Cable
• CSA (Canadian Standards Association) Rated Power Cable

Application:

• C-L-X Type RA90 HL cables with an impervious, continuous, corrugated aluminum  sheath are recommended as an economical alternate to a wire in conduit system.
• C-L-X Type RA90 HL cables may be installed indoors or outdoors, in wet or dry locations, as open runs of cable secured to supports spaced not more than six feet apart, in cable tray, as aerial cable on a messenger, in any approved raceway, direct burial, or encased in concrete.
• They are permitted as a method of separation between unique voltage systems pern Rule 16- 212 of the CEC. C-L-X Type RA90 HL cables are also approved for use in Zone 1, Zone 2, Class II Div 2, Class III Div 1 and Class III Div 2 per CEC.

Standards:

• CSA: Certified by the Canadian Standards Association, ensuring adherence to national safety and performance standards.
• RA90: Compliant with Residential Aluminum 90°C rated cable standards.
• HL: Approved for use in hazardous locations, enhancing safety.
• IEEE: Meets relevant standards set by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers.
• ICEA: Conforms to specifications of the Insulated Cable Engineers Association.

Construction:

• Conductor: Uncoated soft copper perASTM B3. Sizes smaller than #8 are compress stranded per ASTM B-8. Sizes #8 and larger are compact stranded perASTM B-496.
• Insulation: X-Olene per ICEA S-95-658/ NEMA WC70 and CSA C22.2 No. 38, Listed CSA Type RW90. Meets MIL-DTL-1377H, section 4.8.4.1.2 cold bend at -66°C and ASTM D746 brittle point at -76°C.
• Conductor Identification: Control Sizes, #9 AWG and smaller, color coded insulation. Power Sizes, #8 AWG and larger, black with printed words of number and color.
• Grounding Conductor(s): One or three bare soft copper per ASTM B-3. Stranded in accordance with ASTM B-496.
• Sheath: Close fitting, impervious, continuous, welded, corrugated aluminum C-L X per CSA C22.2 No. 123.
• Jacket: Black Okoseal (PVC) per CSA C22.2 No. 123. MeetsASTM D746 brittle point at -40°C

• 130°C emergency rating.
• 250°C short circuit rating.
• Good EMI shielding characteristics.
• Impervious, continuous metallic sheath excludes moisture, gasses and liquids.
• Lower installed system cost than conduit or EMT systems.
• Provides excellent grounding safety.
• Excellent compression and impact resistance.
• Continuous long lengths.
• Installation temperature of -40°C.
• Three symmetrical grounding conductors with the CLX sheath provide a superior low resistance return path for VFD and other modern ac drive/motor applications.
• CSA C22.2 No. 123 Type RA90.
• CSA C22.2 No. 174 Type HL.
• CSA listed as FT4 and LTGG (-40°C).
