Specification

Allowable Ampacity for 16 AWG 16C Stranded Bare Copper Shielded XLPE SWA PVC RE4(O)FR 0.6/1KV Low Voltage Cable: 100 Amps

About:

This cable features 16 conductors, each made of 16 American Wire Gauge (AWG) stranded bare copper, designed for low voltage applications up to 0.6/1KV. It includes Cross-Linked Polyethylene (XLPE) insulation, Steel Wire Armor (SWA) for mechanical protection, and a Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) outer sheath. The cable is shielded and carries a RE4(O)FR rating, indicating high standards for fire resistance and low smoke emissions.

Also Known As:
