646 MCM 1C TC Shielded Nylon Tape Braid EPR GAALSHIP Medium IEEE Type E SC 5KV Offshore Cable

Allowable Ampacity for 646 MCM 1C TC Shielded Nylon Tape Braid EPR GAALSHIP Medium IEEE Type E SC 5KV Offshore Cable:100 Amps

About:

The 646 MCM 1C TC Shielded Nylon Tape Braid EPR GAALSHIP Medium IEEE Type E SC 5KV Offshore Cable is designed for medium voltage applications in harsh offshore and marine settings. It features a single tinned copper conductor with nylon tape and metallic braid shielding, insulated with Ethylene Propylene Rubber (EPR). This configuration ensures excellent electrical performance and durability against environmental and chemical hazards. The cable is ideal for powering critical systems on offshore platforms and marine vessels where reliability and safety are paramount.

Also Known As:
