500 MCM 3C Type MV-105 Copper 15kV Cable with 3 Grounds NLEPR Insulation 133% IL ARMOR-X Red PVC Jacket

500 MCM 3C Type MV-105 Copper 15kV Cable with 3 Grounds NLEPR Insulation 133% IL ARMOR-X Red PVC Jacket

Applications:

The 15KV ARMOR-X with 50% ground are armored cables for use in wet and dry areas, conduits, ducts, troughs, trays, direct burial, and where superior electrical properties are desired. These cables are capable of operating continuously at the conductor temperature not in excess of 105°C for normal operation, 140°C for emergency overload, 250°C for short circuit conditions, and -50°C for cold bend. For uses in Class I, II, and III, Division 1 and 2 hazardous locations per NEC Article 501, 502, and 503. Cable is suitable for VFD applications. Type MV-105 Three Conductor Copper, 220 Mils No Lead Ethylene Propylene Rubber (NL-EPR) 133% Insulation Level, Tape Shield, Three Grounds, Continuous Corrugated Welded Aluminum Armor. -ARMOR-X, Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) Jacket. Suitable For VFD Applications. Silicone Free.
