Specification

Allowable Ampacity for 450 MCM 3C Stranded Bare Copper Tape Unshielded XLPE PVC RE4H1(O)R 18/30KV Medium Voltage Cable: 100 Amps

About:

This cable features 450 MCM AWG (American Wire Gauge) size, making it capable of carrying larger current loads compared to higher gauge (thinner) cables. The "3C" indicates that the cable has three copper conductors, making it suitable for three-phase power systems, which are common in industrial and utility applications. The medium voltage rating of 18/30 kV suggests that the cable can be used in systems where the maximum system voltage is up to 30 kV.

Also Known As:

• 18/30 kV 450 MCM AWG 3C Medium Voltage Cable
• 450 MCM AWG 3C MV-90 or MV-105 (depending on the insulation level)
• 18/30 kV 3 Core Copper Cable

Application:

• Power transmission and distribution in medium voltage networks.
• Connections to medium voltage switchgear and substations.
