Specification

Allowable Ampacity for 8 AWG 12C Stranded Bare Copper Shielded XLPE SWA PVC RE4(O)FR 0.6/1KV Low Voltage Cablev: 100 Amps

About:

This cable comprises 12 conductors, each made of 8 American Wire Gauge (AWG) stranded bare copper. It's designed for low voltage applications with a rating of 0.6/1KV. The cable features Cross-Linked Polyethylene (XLPE) insulation for excellent electrical properties, Steel Wire Armor (SWA) for mechanical protection, and a Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) outer sheath. It is shielded and has a RE4(O)FR rating, indicating high standards of fire resistance and low smoke emission.
