600/1000V PVC Insulated, PVC Sheathed, Unarmoured Power Cables to IEC 60502 (Single Core)

FGD300 1VV-R (CU/PVC/PVC 600/1000V Class 2)

VDE Code: NYY

Applications

IEC 60502-1 600/1000V PVC Insulated, PVC Sheathed Unarmoured Power Cables are mainly use in fixed installations in industrial areas, buildings and similar applications but not for burial in the ground, either directly or in ducts.

Standard

Basic design to IEC 60502-1

Fire Performance

Flame Retardance (Single Vertical Wire Test) IEC 60332-1-2

Voltage Rating

600/1000V

Construction

600/1000V PVC Insulated, PVC Sheathed, Unarmoured Power Cables Power Cables to IEC 60502 (Single Core)
Conductor Plain annealed copper, stranded according to IEC 60228 class 2.
Insulation PVC/A according to IEC 60502-1.
Outer Sheath Extruded PVC Type ST1/ST2 according to IEC 60502-1.
