About:

The Okoguard Stranded Aluminum Shield EPR Okoseal PVC MV-105 15KV cable is designed for medium voltage applications. It features a conductor made from stranded aluminum, which provides a balance between strength, flexibility, and conductivity. The insulation is made from Ethylene Propylene Rubber (EPR), known for its excellent electrical properties and resistance to heat, moisture, and chemical corrosion.

Also Known As:

• MV-105 Cable
• 15KV EPR Cable
• Aluminum Shielded Power Cable
• Medium Voltage PVC Cable

Applications:

• Okoguard shielded Okoseal Type MV-105 power cables are recommended for use as
feeder circuits, in electric utility generating stations, for distribution circuits, and for
feeders or branch circuits in industrial and commercial installations.
• Type MV cables may be installed in wet or dry locations, indoors or outdoors (exposed to sunlight), in any raceway or underground duct, directly buried if installed in a system
with a grounding conductor in close proximity that conforms with NEC Section 315.36 and 250.4(A)(5), or messenger supported in industrial establishments and electric utilities.
• Sizes 1/0 AWG and larger may also be installed in cable tray as permitted by NEC Section 315.32(3).

Standards:

• UL 1072: Specification for medium voltage power cables.
• IEEE 1202/CSA FT4: Standards for flame testing, indicating the cable's fire resistance.
• AEIC CS8: Covers specifications for extruded dielectric shielded power cables rated 5 kV to 46 kV.
• ICEA S-93-639/NEMA WC74: Standard for 5-35 kV shielded power cables.
