Specification For Control Cables

The document provides specifications for a 20 pair steel wire armoured instrumentation cable. It specifies that the cable contains 20 twisted pairs of 7/0.53mm diameter solid copper conductors with polyethylene insulation, aluminum-polyester tape screening, solid polyethylene bedding, galvanized steel wire armouring, fire retardant black PVC sheathing. Key specifications include a minimum bending radius of 6 times the cable diameter, maximum conductor resistance of 13 ohms/km, minimum insulation resistance of 5000 megohms/km, maximum capacitance of 115pF/m, maximum temperature rating of 65°C, and maximum voltage rating of 300/500V RMS.
