About:

This cable features a stranded uncoated copper conductor, offering flexibility and robust electrical performance. The Okoguard insulation, known for its excellent electrical, thermal, and physical properties, is paired with a copper shield and an Okoclear-TS outer jacket. The MV-105 designation signifies that the cable is rated for medium voltage applications, specifically up to 5/8 kilovolts, and is designed to meet the rigorous demands of modern electrical infrastructure.

Also Known As:

• MV-105 Okoguard Cable
• 5/8kV Stranded Copper Power Cable
• Medium Voltage Okoclear-TS Insulated Cable

Applications:

• Okoguard shielded Okoclear-TS Type MV-105 power cables are recommended for use as
feeder circuits, in electric utility generating stations, for distribution circuits, and for feeders or branch circuits in industrial and commercial installations, where a cable with low smoke/zero halogen characteristics is needed.
• 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 in close proximity that conforms with NEC Section 315.36 and 250.4(A)(5), or messenger supported in industrial establishments and electric utilities.
• May be installed in cable trays where permitted by NEC Section 315.32(3).

Standards:

• IEEE 1202 or UL 1685 for fire and smoke performance
• ICEA S-93-639/NEMA WC 74 for 5-35 kV power cables
• UL 1072 for medium voltage power cables
