Specification

16 AWG 5C Stranded Tinned Copper Shielded Braid Halogen-Free GAALSHIP BFOU 0.6/1 kV Offshore Cable

Allowable Ampacity for 16 AWG 5C Stranded Tinned Copper Shielded Braid Halogen-Free GAALSHIP BFOU 0.6/1 kV Offshore Cable: 100 Amps

About:

This cable is crafted to deliver electrical power and control signals in offshore and marine applications. It features a 0.6/1 kV rating, suitable for medium voltage applications.

Also Known As:

It may be referred to as marine-grade power cable, offshore control cable, or fire-resistant marine cable.

Application:

• Offshore oil and gas platforms: For power, control, and lighting systems in harsh marine environments.
• Ships and vessels: Used in wiring systems that require fire resistance, low smoke, and non-toxic emissions.
• Offshore wind farms: Suitable for connecting and operating critical equipment in renewable energy installations.

Standards:

• GAALSHIP BFOU: Specifies that the cable must be flame retardant, halogen-free, and low smoke.
• IEC 60092-350: Standard for electrical installations in ships, focusing on cable design and construction requirements.
• IEC 60092-360: Ensures that electrical cables have low fire hazard properties.
