Specification

Allowable Ampacity for 12 AWG 3C Bare Copper Shield Steel Braid Thermoplastic Halogen-Free FG7(O)AM1 0.6/1KV Armour Cable: 100 Amps

About:

12 AWG 3C Bare Copper Shield Steel Braid Thermoplastic Halogen-Free FG7(O)AM1 0.6/1KV Armour Cable is a specific type of electrical cable with distinct characteristics and applications.

Also Known As:

This type of cable is commonly referred to as armored power cable. The "12 AWG" part of its name indicates the American Wire Gauge size of the conductors, and "3C" signifies three conductors.

Application:

Such cables are typically used in power distribution and transmission in industrial, commercial, and residential settings. The armored design makes it suitable for installations where mechanical protection is required, like underground, in conduits, or in environments where physical damage risks are present.

Standards:

This cable is likely to comply with specific industry standards, though the exact standards would depend on the manufacturer and region. Common standards for armored cables include IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission), UL (Underwriters Laboratories), and possibly specific regional or national electrical codes.
