EPR refers to ethylene propylene. Just like the service wire discussed above this Preassembled Aerial MV cable is made of stranded Class B copper conductors which is in accordance to ASTM standards. However, its conductors have a different insulation with a unique jacketing coat.

The copper conductors are shielded with an extruded semi-conductor and then insulated with EPR that offers a maximum of 133% level of insulation that is coated with PVC jacketing on the outer surface. This cable is branded as a top quality cable after approved to meet the following specification standards:

1.Underwriters Laboratory (UL) 1072 for single conductors
2.ICEA S-93-639 or NEMA WC-74
3.RoHS Compliance
4.Sunlight Resistance

Why go for this Cable?
You will agree with me that this type of service wire has a superior double-walled adaptive protection. It is insulated with Ethylene Propylene (EPR) compound ensuring 133 percentage level of insulation, which is heat and moisture retardant and encased on the outer surface by the Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) jacketing layer. PVC offers great protection against creeping, abrasion, corrosive chemicals, moisture, strong UV radiation etc. Polyvinyl chloride is known as a non-biodegradable compound, meaning that it does not decompose even when buried directly under the ground; still will not succumb to fungal attack.

This cable has a higher power voltage rating of 15,000V as compared to other twisted cables. Meaning that it can comfortably serve high power voltages without difficulty, up to 15000 volts making it a cable of choice for heavy load industrial equipment.

Application
The superior insulation and jacketing layer of this cable affirms the reason why it is used in the transmission of 15,000 power voltage. It’s a high voltage heavy duty cable. As the name suggests, it is ideal for industrial and harsh environmental conditions as an aerial wire.
