APPLICATIONS
UL listed and OSHA acceptable. Recognized for use in Class 1 or 2, Division 2 hazardous
locations and for installation in trays, wireways, troughs, channels, ducts and conduit.
Specifically approved for direct burial, wet or dry locations and outdoors in cable trays where
a sunlight resistant rating is required. Designed for control, power, lighting, telemetering,
signals and relay or traffic control where a low loss, high temperature insulation is specified.
SPECIFICATIONS
This specification covers multiconductor cables having stranded, tinned copper conductors;
flame retardant cross-linked polyolefin insulation, and a heavy duty, flame and sunlight
resistant gas/vapor-tight chlorosulfonated polyethylene (CSPE) jacket. Cables conform to
Article 392 “Cable Trays” and Article 336 “Power and Control Cable Type TC” of the 2002
NEC®, and Standard 1277 of Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. and ICEA S-73-532. They
meet the requirements of the ICEA T-30-520 flame tests as well as the 70,000 BTU “Cable
Tray Propagation Test” per IEEE-383 and show reserve capabilities by also passing the ICEA
T-29-520 210,000 BTU flame test. Rated 600 volts, 90°C wet and dry. Sizes 14, 12, and
10 AWG conductors are UL Type XHHW-2. UL file no. E60749. They also meet the CSA
FT4 and the IEEE 1202 70,000 BTU flame tests.
