VFD Power Cable soft drawn copper conductors are insulated with XLP as per UL-44. XLP insulation offers protection to the conductors against heat and moisture damage. Insulated conductors are wrapped with an extruded filler belt and then twisted together with a grounding wire to form an assembly. This assembly is shielded with a metallic tape which holds the conductors firmly together and armored by a polymeric airbag that is sheathed with a thermoplastic material.

Why go for this cable?
The cross linked polyethylene (XLP) insulation ensures no contact between the copper conductors and the grounding wire, thus improving the power conductivity of the cable. Emi shield and the extruded filler belt both ensures that the phase identification of the core is held firmly in place, hence keeping the conductors away from overlapping each other.

Polymeric armor acts as barrier to abrasion. It is a tough coat that prevents harsh environmental conditions from damaging the cable. Heavy duty industrial and offshore environment is very demanding more so if it presents the cable with corrosive chemicals, wear and tear due to moving parts. Therefore only special cables with superior polymeric armor can withstand such conditions and not an ordinary standard cable protection. Go for Prysmian’s VDF Power Cable to enjoy a long term power service.

Applications
A power cable with more advanced adaptive insulation and armor features like this Prysmian Cable, is meant to serve in punishing conditions and is applied in various industrial fields and marine offshore drills.

There are lots of low voltage onshore and offshore cables at Nassau Electrical and other types available include; Prysmian 3/C Air-guard Commercial and Industrial Cable and Prysmian 2 AWG Copper Air-guard Cable.
