Product Description
- This cable has been custom designed specifically for Irrigation Installations. It consist of two cores of copper wire with conductors with a round profile area each of 2.5 sq.mm.
- The Cable has three ply protection.
- A tough outer polyethylene 'shell' (MDPE).
- PVC Sheath around the copper wire, one coloured red and the other blue.
- Insulation material between the sheaths and the shell. This material is XLPE or PEX and is made from high density polyethylene (HDPE). A 'cross-linking process is carried out during process.
- The cross linking provides three key improvements to the material by:
-
- Enhanced high temperature tolerance.
- Reducing moisture permeability
- Enhanced dielectric properties, which is is important for medium voltage -50kV AC.
- The cable's outer shell is coloured bright orange to enhance visability.
