16 AWG 7C Stranded Bare Copper Shielded XLPE SWA PVC RE4(O)FR 0.6/1KV Low Voltage Cable

Allowable Ampacity for 16 AWG 7C Stranded Bare Copper Shielded XLPE SWA PVC RE4(O)FR 0.6/1KV Low Voltage Cable: 100 Amps

About:

This cable is designed for low voltage applications and is made up of 7 conductors, each of 16 American Wire Gauge (AWG) size. The conductors are stranded bare copper, known for its excellent conductivity and flexibility. It's shielded and insulated with Cross-Linked Polyethylene (XLPE), armored with Steel Wire Armor (SWA), and sheathed in Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC). The RE4(O)FR rating indicates specific fire and smoke resistance properties.
