Nexans - BS7835 Single Core Armoured Mains Cable CU XLPE AWA LSZH 8.7/15kV - 50mm² to 500mm²

Description

BS7835 cables from Nexans are armoured power cables designed for medium voltage fixed installations, such as power networks, industrial installations, power supply stations and substations. They can be installed indoors, outdoors, underground and in cable ducts. These single core cables have copper conductors with cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation, various screen options, water blocking options, aluminium wire armour and LSZH bedding and outer sheath.

The UV resistant LSZH outer sheath makes the cable suitable for internal use in buildings, power stations and switchboards, where it is often installed on cable tray for industrial applications. Nexans BS7835 cables can also be used externally in cable ducts and, due to the armour, can be buried directly in free-draining soil.
