BS6622 XLPE/PVC Medium Voltage Single Core Copper Mains Cable 12.7/22kV-50mm² to 500mm²

Description

BS6622 cables are armoured power cables designed for medium voltage fixed installations, such as power networks and industrial installations, including those in power supply stations, indoors, outdoors, underground, and in cable ducts. These 33kV single core cables have copper conductors with cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation various screen options, water blocking options, aluminium wire armour and PVC bedding and outer sheath.

BS6622 cables are suitable for Internal use in buildings, power stations, or switchboards and are often run in cable tray for industrial applications. They can also be used externally in cable duct and due to the aluminium wired armour can be buried directly in free draining soil.
