Specification

Allowable Ampacity for 8 AWG 5C 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. It features a 8 American Wire Gauge (AWG) size, indicating the thickness of the wire, and is composed of five conductors (5C). The cable is shielded and includes several layers of protection and insulation.

Also Known As:

This type of cable might be referred to in the industry by various names highlighting its key features, such as 8 AWG shielded low-voltage cable, 5-core armored cable, or fire-resistant control cable.

Application:

It is typically used in environments where low voltage power and signal transmission is required along with extra protection. Applications can include industrial control systems, power distribution in buildings, outdoor installations requiring durability, and areas where fire resistance is necessary.

Standards:

This cable likely meets specific international and national standards for safety, performance, and quality. This might include standards related to fire resistance, electrical performance, and environmental durability. The RE4(O)FR notation could indicate compliance with certain fire safety standards.
