    600/1000V XLPE Insulated, LSZH Sheathed Power Cables to BS 8573 (Single Core)

    FTX300 1RZ1-R (CU/XLPE/LSZH 600/1000V Class 2)

    APPLICATION

    These XLPE insulated and LSZH sheathed cables are generally used for fixed installation. Suitable for building wiring, especially in areas where smoke and fume emissions may cause a potential threat to life but not for burial in the ground, either directly or in ducts. This product type is TUV approved.

    STANDARDS

    Basic design to BS 8573:2012

    FIRE PERFORMANCE

    Flame Retardance (Single vertical wire or cable test) IEC 60332-1-2; EN 60332-1-2
    Reduced Fire Propagation (Vertically-mounted bundled wires & cables test) IEC 60332-3-24; EN 60332-3-24
    Halogen Free IEC 60754-1; EN 50267-2-1
    No Corrosive Gas Emission IEC 60754-2; EN 50267-2-2
    Minimum Smoke Emission IEC 61034-2; EN 61034-2

    VOLTAGE RATING

    600/1000V

    CABLE CONSTRUCTION

    Conductor : Annealed copper conductor, stranded according to BS EN 60228 class 2.

    Insulation : XLPE type GP8 according to BS 7655-1.3. HEPR type GP6 according to BS 7655-1.2 or crosslinked polyolefin material type EI 5 according to BS EN 50363-5 can be offered as option.

    Inner Covering Option : The optional inner covering, where used, shall consist of an extruded layer of synthetic polymeric material. It shall surround the single core and the laid-up two, three, four or five cores, giving the assembly a practically circular shape.
