6mm 4C Stranded Bare Copper Unshielded XLPE Armoured LSF 600/1000V Alarm Power Cable

Allowable Ampacity for 6mm 4C Stranded Bare Copper Unshielded XLPE Armoured LSF 600/1000V Alarm Power Cable: 100 Amps

About:

• The Stranded Bare Copper Unshielded XLPE Armoured LSF 600/1000V Alarm Power Cable is designed for power distribution and alarm systems in both industrial and commercial settings. It features stranded bare copper conductors for flexibility and high conductivity, cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation for excellent electrical and thermal performance, and low smoke and fume (LSF) properties for enhanced safety. The cable also includes steel wire armor (SWA) for mechanical protection.

Also Known As:

• XLPE Insulated Armoured Power Cable
• LSF Armoured Alarm Cable
• 1kV Alarm Power Cable

Application:

• Armoured fire resistant cable for use in fixed wiring installations where it is necessary for the cable to retain circuit integrity in the event of a fire, e.g. emergency services, alarm systems, lighting, etc., and in situations where power must be maintained to allow controlled closedown of equipment.
