ABC Cable with PVC Insulated Use for Overhead STANDARD: ASTM B230, B231, B232 and B-399, B498, ICEA S-76-474
Duplex Service Drop Wire
APPLICATION
Primarily used for 120 volt overhead service applications such as street lighting, outdoor lighting, and temporary service for construction. To be used at voltage of 600 volts phase-to-phase or less and at conductor temperatures not to exceed 75°C for polyethylene insulated conductors or 90°C for crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) insulated conductors.
Duplex Service Drop Wire STANDARD:
ASTM B230, B231, B232 and B-399, B498, ICEA S-76-474
Duplex Service Drop Wire CONSTRUCTION
The phase conductors are concentrically stranded compressed 1350-H19 aluminum and insulated polyethylene or crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE), The neutral messengers are concentrically stranded AAC, ACSR, or 6201 aluminum alloy.
