Application: |
|
|
| PVC Insulated, copper covered, steeld reinforced drop wire cables are designed for extending and open wire line or distribution cable pair from a pole and/or cable terminal to a building |
Construction: |
|
|
Conductor
Two round 18.0 AWG solid 30% conductivity extra strengthened copper/ steel wires serve dually as conductors and strength members. Optimized tensile breaking strength and elongation assure superior toughness against ice loading and impact from falling ice- covered tree limbs and other mechanical impacts.
Insulation
Conductors are laid in a paralel configurationand covered with fşame and abrasion resistant, black poliyvinyle chloride compound that serves as both insulation and jacket. One raised ridge tracer on one edge of jacket provides conductor polariry identification. |
