confirms to IEC 332. For installation where fire and associated problems such as
emission of smoke and toxic fumes offer a serious potential threat, special LSF (Low
smoke & fumes) compound can be provided. LSF compound is Halogen free
(Flourine, Chlorine, Bromine) when tested as per BS 6425 (Pt 1) & IEC 60754
(Pt 1). The acid gas evolved during combustion is less than 0.5% by weight of
material.

Short Circuit Current Ratings for XLPE Cables

Short Circuit Rating for I second duration for Copper and Aluminium XLPE Cables (Isc Current in KAmps)
Ratings for any other duration :
1) Max. Initial Conductor Temperature during operation : 90oC
2) Max. Final Conductor Temperature during short circuit : 250oC
Formula relating short Circuit Rating with t second duration
1t=1sc t
Where 1t = Short Circuit Rating for t seconds.
t = Duration in seconds.
1sc = Short Circuit rating for 1 second.
Emergency overload : Cable may operate under overload conditions. Under such condition conductor temperature not to exceed 130o C for maximum 100 hours per year
and not more that 500 hours during lifetime of cable. This is approximately 20% higher than specified rated current during the emergency period.

Assembly

Insulated conductors are laid up together, if necessary interstices may be filled with
fillers.

Fillers

Non-hygroscopic Poly propylene fillers are included between laid up cores wherever
required.
A separator tape of non-hygroscopic poly propylene material is applied over laid up
core wherever necessary.

Bedding

Extruded PVC compatible with operating temperature

Armour

For Single Core - Aluminium round wire / flat wire. For Multicore - Galvanised Steel
round wire / flat wire / tape.

Outer Sheath

Extruded PVC / Special PVC compound such as Flame Retardant (FR), Flame
Retardant Low Smoke (FRLS), Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSOH) can be used for
outer sheath to suit a variety of environment and fire risk conditions. Flamabillity test
confirms to IEC 332 & Swidish chimeny. For installation where fire and associated
problems such as emission of smoke and toxic fumes offer a serious potential threat,
special LSF (Low smoke & fumes) compound can be provided. LSF compound is
Halogen free (Flourine, Chlorine, Bromine) when tested as per BS 6425 (Pt 1) & IEC
60754 (Pt 1). The acid gas evolved during combustion is less than 0.5% by weight of
material.

Assembly

Insulated conductors are laid up together, if necessary interstices may be filled with
fillers.

Fillers

Non-hygroscopic Poly propylene fillers are included between laid up cores wherever
required
A separator tape of non-hygroscopic poly propylene material is applied over laid up cores
wherever necessary.

Bedding

Extruded PVC compatible with operating temperature.

Armour

For Single Core - Aluminium round wire / flat wire.

For Multicore - Galvanised Steel round wire / flat wire / tape.

Outer Sheath

Extruded PVC / Special PVC compound such as Flame Retardant (FR), Flame Retardant
Low Smoke (FRLS), Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSOH) can be used for outer sheath to
suit a variety of environment and fire risk conditions. Flamabillity test confirms to IEC 332
& Swidish chimeny. For installation where fire and associated problems such as
emission of smoke and toxic fumes offer a serious potential threat, special LSF (Low
smoke & fumes) compound can be provided. LSF compound is Halogen free (Flourine,
Chlorine, Bromine) when tested as per BS 6425 (Pt 1) & IEC 60754 (Pt 1). The acid gas
evolved during combustion is less than 0.5% by weight of material.
Minimum Bending radius :12 times the cable diameter
Admissible Pulling Force : Aluminium - 30N/mm2

THERMOCOUPLE EXTENSION / COMPENSATING

CABLES
Thermocouple extension and compensating cables are designed for interconnercion between
thermocouple probes and control instrumentation. They are generally available in the following types:
Type (1)
Unarmoured cables with conductors insulated with PVC and twisted together in pairs, sheathed overall
with PVC.
Type (2)
Armoured cables with conductors insulated with PVC and twisted together in pairs, PVC bedding,
Galvanised steel wire armour and sheathed overall with PVC.
All of the above types of cables can be supplied unscreened or screened (individually, collectively or both)
with an Aluminium Polyster tape screen incorporating tinned copper drain wire.
The construction is similar to paired instrumentation cable but the conductor material is different.
Thermocouple are used in processes to sense temperature and is connected to the pyrometers for
indication and control. The thermocouple and pyrometers are electrically connected by thermocouple
extension/compensating cables. The conductors used for these cables are required to have similar
thermo-electric (emf) properties as that of the thermocouple used for sensing the temperature.

Circular conductor 1.0-16mm, Shaped conductor >= 25mm. Installation methods for current rating in accordance with BS7671/IEE Wiring
Regulations *.
The tabulated rating is as a two core cable and may be used where the number of cores carrying current does not exceed the square root of the
total number of cores. +Size not included in BS7846

Installation methods for current rating "Enclosed in conduit on a wall or in trunking" in accordance with BS7671/EE Wiring Regulations. The tabulated
ratings are based upon a 30C ambient temperature and 90 C operating temperature. For other ambient temperatures or where several circuits are
grouped together, the following rating factor should be applied.
