Description
120x SM G.657.A1 (5x24)

The Loose Tube Cable All Dielectric Self-Supporting (LTC ADSS)

is a metalfree aerial distribution cable, with dry waterblocking
and aramid yarns under the outersheath. This cable is to be
used under all dielectric circumstances, for example on
distribution and high voltage power lines, railway, tram, trolley
bus lines and between buildings. Because of its strong tensile
members it is suitable for aerial applications without using
additional strenght members. This cable is designed for spans
between approx. 150 and 300 mtrs, depending on installing
and surroundings conditions, with the conditions from the
NESC tables as a basis. For further information, please consult
document Sag & Tension Calculations under characteristic
‘Specification’.
