12G2.5 mm² Bare Copper Unshielded PVC Gaalflex Tray 1002 MTW Flexible Cable
Allowable Ampacity for 12G2.5 mm² Bare Copper Unshielded PVC Gaalflex Tray 1002 MTW Flexible Cable: 100 Amps
About:
This cable features two conductors, each with a cross-sectional area of 2.5 mm², made of bare copper. It is unshielded, meaning there is no additional layer for electromagnetic interference protection. The PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) refers to the insulation material. The “Gaalflex Tray 1002 MTW” designation suggests that it is a flexible cable suitable for tray applications, and “MTW” signifies it’s designed for machine tool wiring, commonly used in industrial environments.
Also Known As:
Depending on the region or manufacturer, this type of cable may be referred to as “2-Core 2.5 mm² Copper Tray Cable,” “Unshielded 2.5 mm² PVC Cable,” or “Flexible Machine Tool Wiring Cable.”
Application:
These cables are typically used in industrial settings for power and control wiring. They are suitable for installation in cable trays, conduits, and possibly in outdoor locations where flexibility and resilience are necessary. It’s often utilized in machinery, manufacturing plants, and large-scale HVAC installations.
Standards:
This cable likely adheres to various safety and industry standards, such as those set by UL (Underwriters Laboratories), including UL 1002 for Tray Cables and UL MTW for machine tool wiring. It may also comply with certain NEC (National Electrical Code) guidelines for power and control cables.
