American Standard UL Industrial Cables
RHH or RHW, EPR/XLPO, 600 Volt

Application and Description

600 Volt EPR/XLPO Type RHH or RHW-2 or USE-2 is suited for use in mass transit and general industry applications where flexibility, fire resistance, and low smoke generation are concerns. May be installed in wet or dry locations (including direct burial for size AWG 8 and larger) in cable trays or in raceways. These cables are capable of operating continuously at a conductor temperature not in excess of 90°C for normal operation, 130°C for emergency overload conditions, and 250°C for circuit conditions.

Cable Construction

Conductor:
Class B compressed concentric stranded bare copper in accordance with ASTM B3 and B8 and ICEA.
Insulation:
Being resistant to moisture, most oils, acids, and alkalies EPR (ethylene propylene rubber) insulation
Jacket:
Flame retardant, moisture and sunlight resistant XLPO
Color:
upon request, black is preferable
