    600/1000V twisted pair control cables to AS/NZS 2373

    Application

    These cables are used in control, supervisory, protection and instrumentation circuits or used as pilot cables. They commonly occur in power stations, substations or in industrial applications.

    Standard

    AS/NZS 2373

    Rated voltage

    600/1000V

    Construction

    Conductor : Single wire plain annealed copper, complying with AS/NZS 1125.

    Insulation : PE complying with AS/NZS 3808.

    Lay-up : An adequate number of separate, identifiable lengths of lay of twisted pairs shall be used to minimize crosstalk.

    Fillers and Tapes : Fillers, binder and wrapping tapes shall be of suitable non-metallic materials.

    Collective screen : Copper tape or aluminum (min. thickness of 0.07mm) or aluminum/polyester tape (min. thickness of 0.023)

    Drain wire : Tinned copper consisting of seven wires of at least 0.25 mm nominal diameter for aluminum tape.

    Armor (optional) : Steel tape or steel wire complying with AS/NZS 5000.1

    Sheath : PE, 4V-75 or HFS-75-TP complying with AS/NZS 3808.

    Color Code

    When the twisted pairs in the cable are identified by colors, the color coding of the pairs shall progress in sequence from the center of the cable as given in the following table. alternatively, each pair may contain a black and a white insulated core. One or both cores in each pair shall be numbered in a contrasting color. The numbering of pairs shall progress in sequence from the center of the cable.

    Centre or Layers Insulation color
    Pair 1 Pair 2 Pair 3 Pair 4 Pair 5 Pair 6 Last Pair
    1-paircenter Orange-white            
    2-paircenter Orange-white Violet-black

    4-paircenter Orange-white Red-grey Blue-brown Violet-black      
    Layers Orange-white Red-grey Blue-brown Red-grey Blue-brown * Violet-black

    *Pair colors shall repeat from red-grey
