General Cable EmPowr® 15 kV Copper Tape PVC Jacket Link and Shielded Power Cable Al Conductor TRXLPE Insulation

Product Details

Complete Cable: Lead-free cross-linked semi-conducting conductor shield, insulation and semi-conducting insulation shield are extruded over a solid or stranded aluminum conductor and cured in a single operation. Uncoated copper tape (helically applied) and overlaying black PVC jacket are applied over the cable core. These products meet the latest requirements of ANSI/ICEA S-97-682 and AEIC CS8 as applicable for Tree-Retardant Cross-linked Polyethylene (TRXLPE) insulated shielded power cable. 

Conductor: Solid or Class B compressed concentric lay stranded 1350 aluminum. 

Conductor Shield: Extruded lead-free semi-conducting thermosetting polymeric stress control layer. 

Insulation: Extruded unfilled lead-free Tree-Retardant Cross-linked Polyethylene (TRXLPE). 

Insulation Shield: Extruded lead-free semi-conducting thermosetting layer, clean and free stripping from insulation. 

Copper Tape: Flat uncoated 5-mil-thick copper tape helically applied with minimum 15% overlap. 

Jacket: Black, non-conducting, sunlight-resistant Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC). 

Features and Benefits: 
• Lead-free environmentally friendly cable 
• Triple-extruded for clean interfaces 
• Dry nitrogen cure for enhanced performance 
• Class 10,000 environment utilized for cable core material handling 
• Excellent moisture resistance
