Specification

Insulation

Okoguard is Okonite’s registered trade name for its exclusive ethylene-propylene rubber (EPR) based, thermosetting compound, whose optimum balance of electrical and physical properties is unequaled in other solid dielectrics.
Okoguard insulation, with the distinctive red color and a totally integrated EPR system, provides the optimum balance of electrical and physical properties for long, problem free service.
The triple tandem extrusion of the screens with the insulation provides optimum electrical characteristics.

Assembly

The shielded insulated conductor is assembled with a semiconducting tape, encased by a continuously corrugated welded aluminum sheath (C-L-X). The impervious, continuous, corrugated aluminum C-L-X sheath provides complete protection against moisture, liquids and gases in addition to its excellent mechanical strength. In addition, the aluminum sheath has adequate ampacity capability to be used as a grounding conductor in U.S. National Electrical Code (NEC) non Hazardous Location (HL) areas.

Jacket

The Okoseal (PVC) flame retardant jacket supplied with this cable is mechanically rugged and has excellent resistance to oil and most chemicals.

Applications

C-L-X Type IEC 60502-2 cables are intended for use in fixed installations such as distribution networks or industrial applications.
C-L-X power cables are recommended as an economical alternate to a wire in conduit system.
