    600/1000V PVC Insulated, PVC Sheathed, Armoured Power Cables to IEC 60502 (2-4 Cores)

    FGD400 1VVMV-R (CU/PVC/PVC/SWA/PVC 600/1000V Class 2)

    Application

    The cables are mainly used in power stations, mass transit underground passenger systems, airports, petrochemical plants, hotels, hospitals, and high-rise buildings.

    Standards

    Basic design adapted to IEC 60502-1

    Fire Performance

    Flame Retardance (Single Vertical Wire Test) IEC 60332-1-2

    Voltage Rating

    600/1000V

    Cable Construction

    Conductor Annealed copper wire, stranded according to IEC 60228 class 2.
    Insulation PVC/A according to IEC 60502-1.
    Inner Covering Extruded PVC or polymeric compound.
    Armouring Galvanized steel wire
    Outer Sheath Extruded PVC Type ST1/ST2 according to IEC 60502-1.
    Outer Sheath Option UV resistance, hydrocarbon resistance, oil resistance, anti rodent and anti termite properties can be offered as option. Compliance to fire performance standard (IEC 60332-1, IEC 60332-3, UL 1581, UL 1666 etc) depends on the oxygen index of the PVC compound and the overall cable design. LSPVC can also be provided upon request.
