Product Information

Specification

Insulation
Okoguard is Okonites registered trade name for its exclusive ethylene-propylene rubber (EPR) based, thermosetting compound, whose optimum balance of electrical and physical properties is unequaled in other solid dielectrics. Okoguard insulation, with its distinctive red color and a integrated EPR system, provides the optimum balance of electrical and physical properties for long, problem-free service.
The triple tandem extrusion of the screens with the insulation provides optimum electrical characteristics.

Jacket
The Okoseal (PVC) jacket supplied with this cable is mechanically rugged and resistant to flame, oil, acids, and most chemicals.

Applications
Okoguard-shielded Okoseal Type MV-105 power cables are recommended for use as feeder circuits, in electric utility generating stations, for distribution circuits, and feeders or branch circuits in industrial and commercial installations.
Type MV cables may be installed in wet or dry locations, indoors or outdoors (exposed to sunlight), in any raceway or underground duct, directly buried if installed in a system with a grounding conductor close that conforms with NEC Section 250.4(A)(5), or messenger supported in industrial establishments and electric utilities. Sizes 1/0 AWG and larger may also be installed in the cable tray.
