Allowable Ampacity for 18 AWG 1P Stranded BC Shield Al Tape XLPE Armour PVC RE-2X(St)Y-f 300V Instrumentation Cable:100 Amps
About:
This type of cable is designed for instrumentation applications, providing reliable signal transmission while minimizing electrical interference. The specific designation “RE-2X(St)Y-f” refers to various construction characteristics, including the materials used and the cable’s intended use.
Also Known As:
• Instrumentation Cable
• Stranded Bare Copper Shielded Cable
• Aluminium Tape Armoured Cable
• XLPE Insulated PVC Sheathed Cable
Applications:
These cables are used for transmission of analoge and digital signals in instrument and control systems at chemistry and petrochemistry industry plants, natural gas and petroleum plants. With blue sheath it is suitable for intrinsically safe systems. these cables are for indoor/outdoor installation, in dry and wet locations, on rack trays, in conduits.
