BS7835 3 Core Armoured Mains Cable CU XLPE SWA LSZH 8.7/15kV - 50mm² to 500mm²

Description

BS67835 cables are armoured power cables designed for medium voltage fixed installations, such as power networks and industrial installations, including power supply stations, and sub stations. Can be installed indoors, outdoors, underground, and in cable ducts. These 3 core cables have copper conductors with cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation various screen options, water blocking options, steel wire armour and LSZH bedding and outer sheath.

BS7835 have a higher CPR classification than BS6622 which is the available PVC option. The UV resistant LSZH outer sheath means this cable is 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 steel wired armour can be buried directly in free draining soil
