115-23-2778 500 MCM 3 Okopact Bare Copper Shielded Binder Tape Okoguard Okoclear-TS MV-105 175mils 15KV Power Cable

Allowable Ampacity for 115-23-2778 500 MCM 3 Okopact Bare Copper Shielded Binder Tape Okoguard Okoclear-TS MV-105 175mils 15KV Power Cable:100 Amps

About:

This cable is a specialized medium voltage power cable from the Okoguard series, designed to efficiently distribute electricity at 15 kilovolts. It is equipped with advanced insulation and shielding technologies, making it suitable for critical power applications. The "500 MCM AWG 3" indicates the gauge and conductor count, which is key for specifying the cable's capacity and size.

Also Known As:

• "115-23-2766 500 MCM AWG Okoguard MV-105"
• "15KV 3-conductor Okoguard"
• "500 MCM AWG 3C MV-105 with Okoclear-TS insulation"

Application:

• Okoguard shielded three conductor Okoclear-TS Type MV-105 power cables are  recommended for distribution circuits, and for feeders or branch circuits in industrial and utility power distribution systems. Type MV cables may be installed in wet or dry locations, indoors or outdoors (exposed to sunlight), in any raceway or underground duct, directly buried, cable tray, or messenger supported in industrial establishments and electric utilities.
