DESCRIPTION

Single core cables with solid or stranded copper conductors, PVC insulated, rated 450/750 V conforming to SASO:55 specification.

CONSTRUCTION

Conductor
Plain annealed circular copper conforming to IEC:228, class 1 and 2 (also available in aluminium conductors sizes 16 to 630 mm2).

Insulation
PVC type 5 to BS:6746 rated 85°C, (PVC type 1 to BS:6746 rated 70°C also available).

APPLICATION

Typical applications include building wiring, equipment wiring, switching and distribution installations in conduits above or under plaster.

FEATURES

Insulation adheres tightly to conductors yet strips easily, leaving conductor clean. PVC insulation has good electrical properties.

TO ORDER
Order by catalogue number, quantity and packaging required.

Example
CJA1-10A 2000 meters in 100m coils.

Note: if 70°C rated PVC insulation is desired, change the second letter to ‘D’ in the catalogue number.

Example
The catalogue number for 25 mm2, copper conductor with white coloured PVC insulation rated 70°C will be CDA1-10W.

Note: In the interests of product improvement, SCC reserve the right to alter cable specifications.
