ABC – Aerial Bundled Cables

acc. to BS 7870-5: 1999

XLPE insulated bundled overhead line
Standard: BS 7870-5:1999 in connection with IEC 60502-1

Design
1 Aluminium conductor with increased breaking load, round stranded compressed (RM)
2 Core insulation (XPLE black, UV-resistant, not flame retardant); 2 up to 4 cores of equal cross section are stranded together in left-hand lay, additionally 1 or 2 cores of reduced cross section can be co-stranded.
Application
Can be used for fixed installation as overhead power lines up to 1.000 V incl.
Not suitable for direct burial.
This over-head cable provides reinforced insulation acc. IEC 61140 and fulfill therefore Class II acc. IEC 61140 It is not flame retardant. But this could be if requested change to a flame retardant cable
Technical Data
Rated voltage: kV     0.6/1
Test voltage: Veff kV     4
Laying temperature: °C     min. -20
Operating temperature: °C     -30 bis +80
Conductor temperature: °C     max. +80
Short-circuit temperature: °C/s     max. +130 /5
Core identification (acc. British Standard): 1, 2 resp. 3 raised longitudinal ribs on the surface of the cores. The surface of the neutral core should have at least 12 ribs for cross-sections up to 50 mm² and a minimum of 16 ribs for cores above 50 mm². In the case of five core bundles the surface of the protective core should be smooth.
Bending radius (min.):       18 × ø of cable
