- Technical Data
Conductor : Plain or tinned annealed stranded circular copper, IEC 60228, class 2 or class 5
Insulation : (Code Letter B) Mica Glass Tape + Hard grade Ethylene Propylene Rubber (HEPR)
Twisting : Color coded cores twisted together to form a pair/triad
Collective Screen : (Code Letter C) Pairs/triples are laid-up and collectively screened by copper backed polyester tape in contact with a stranded
tinned copper drain wire. Pairs/triples are identified by printed numbers on insulated conductors.
Inner Covering : (Code Letter F) Flame retardant and halogen-free compound
Armour : (Code Letter C) Galvanised steel wire braid
Outer Sheath : (Code Letter U) Flame retardant, halogen-free thermoset compound, SHF2 (Optional SHF MUD)
Color : Grey (if Intrinsically Safe: Blue)
