Allowable Ampacity for 112-07-1531 500 MCM 1C 37Strand Bare Copper Unshielded EPDM Okonite FMR XHHW-2 RW90 Power And Control Cable:100 Amps

About:

This version of the Okonite FMR cable uses a 500 MCM size conductor made from 37-strand bare copper, providing flexibility and good conductivity. The EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) insulation is known for its excellent heat, chemical, and moisture resistance, making it suitable for high-demand environments. The "XHHW-2" rating indicates that the insulation is designed for wet or dry locations at temperatures up to 90°C with an additional level of heat resistance compared to XHHW. The "RW90" designation means it can operate at 600 volts in wet or dry conditions at temperatures up to 90°C.

Also Known As:

• Okonite 500 MCM XHHW-2 Cable
• EPDM Insulated Copper Control Cable
• Single Conductor Control Cable

Application:

Okonite-FMR Type XHH or XHHW-2 600/1000V Power and Control Cables are recommended for general low voltage power and control applications. Okonite-FMR flame retardant insulated power cables may be used in generating plants, substations and industrial plants. These cables may be installed in wet or dry locations, indoors or outdoors, in raceways, underground ducts, cable tray (size 1/0 AWG and larger per NEC article 392.10(B)(1)) or lashed to a messenger for aerial installation.

Standards:

• XHHW-2: This indicates compliance with standards for cross-linked high heat-resistant water-resistant insulated wire.
• RW90: Ensures the cable is rated for 600 volts in wet or dry conditions up to 90°C.
• NEC (National Electrical Code): The cable adheres to the safety standards outlined in the NEC for installation and use in accordance with various environmental and operational conditions.
• UL (Underwriters Laboratories) listed: This ensures that the cable has been tested for safety and performance by UL, a globally recognized safety certification organization.

Construction:

• Conductor: Uncoated soft copper per ASTM B-3. Sizes smaller than #8 are compress stranded per ASTM B-8. Sizes #8 and larger are compact stranded per ASTM B-496.
• Insulation: Meets or exceeds all requirements of ICEA S-95-658, NEMA WC-70, UL 44 and CSA C22.2 No.38.  Listed by Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. as Type XHH or XHHW-2, VW-1. 0

Features:

• Sizes 1/0 AWG and larger pass the Vertical Tray Flame Test requirements of UL 1581 for use in cable tray.

• Passes the IEEE 383-74 Vertical Tray Flame Test.
• Passes the IEEE 1202/FT4 Vertical Tray Flame Test. (sizes 1/0 AWG and larger).
• Extreme heat resistance 90°C continuous rating; 130°C emergency overload rating; 250°C short circuit rating.
• Rated 90°C wet or dry.
• Exceptional resistance to deformation at high temperatures.
• Stable electrical properties.
• Low SIC and power factor.
• Low moisture absorption.
• Mechanically rugged.
• Resistant to weather.
• Smaller diameter.
• More flexible, easier to install, terminate, or splice than XLPE insulation.
• UL Listed, UL Rated VW-1, For CT Use 1/0 AWG & larger, Oil Res I, -40C.
• cUL listed RW75 or RW90.
• UL Type RHH/RHW-2 600/1000V or 2000V, cUL Type RW75/RW90 600V or 2000V, and cUL RWU90 1000V constructions are also available.
