German Standard Industrial Cables
H00V-D

Application and Description

These high flexible earth conductors are used for earthing of portable equipment and short circuiting. These cables perform a protective function in the live repair of high voltage power supply in railway systems, failing current equipment, alternating current systems and in networks of transmission and distribution. Because of that these are designated as safety cables. These earthing cables offer special characteristics with low weights, high flexibility to a wide temperature range and the behavior in high temperature. The protective overall PVC jacket assure essential function for proper protection against mechanical and chemical stresses.
