Multicore LV Armoured Cables (Kahramaa)

DESCRIPTION
Scope

This specification covers multi-core, XLPE insulated cables for use on the
KAHRAMMA low voltage Distribution System . These cables are complying with IEC
60502-1 and Kahramaa Standard specification No.EP-MS-P4/S3-040 issue : 3

Design

1. Conductor

Plain annealed high-conductivity Stranded ,Compacted Copper Class 2 conforming to STANDARDS

IEC 60228.
International IEC 60332-1;
2. Insulation IEC 60502-1
Extruded XLPE conforming to IEC 60502-1.

3.Innersheathing or Bedding

Extruded PVC suitable for the operating conditions and conforming to IEC 60502-1

5. Armour

Single layer of Galvanized Steel Wire Armour (SWA) + Tinned Copper Wires (TCWA)
with Non-conducting Water Blocking Tape above and below the armour layer The
conductivity of the copper wires alone is at least 50% of that of any phase conductor,
at their respective normal working temperatures.

6. Outer Sheath

Polyvinyl Chloride 'PVC' Type ST2

- Flame retardant : IEC60332-1

- Colour : Black
