Nexans - BS6622 XLPE/PVC Medium Voltage 3 Core Copper Mains Cable 19/33kV - 70mm² to 400mm²

Description

BS6622 cables from Nexans 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 3 core cables have copper conductors with cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation, various screen options, water blocking options, steel wire armour and PVC bedding and outer sheath.

They are suitable for internal use in buildings, power stations or switchboards and are often run in cable tray for industrial applications. Nexans BS6622 cables can also be used externally in cable duct and, due to being armoured, can be buried directly in free-draining soil.
