1mm 2C Tinned Copper Unshielded Silicone Rubber LFH 440V Military Vessel Power Cable
Allowable Ampacity for 1mm 2C Tinned Copper Unshielded Silicone Rubber LFH 440V Military Vessel Power Cable: 100 Amps
About:
• Purpose: This cable is specifically designed for military applications, particularly for power distribution in naval vessels.
• Voltage Rating: It is rated for low-frequency, high-voltage applications up to 440 volts.
Also Known As:
• Sometimes referred to as “Military Grade Power Cable” or “Naval Shipboard Power Cable.”
• May also be known by specific product codes or model numbers in military procurement catalogs.
Application:
• Fire resistant cable for power, control, lighting use, etc., in military vessels where the cable is required to retain circuit integrity in the event of a fire, for emergency lighting, alarms, shutdown systems etc. Incorporates LFH (Limited Fire Hazard) sheath for reduced levels of smoke and toxic fumes in the event of a fire.
Construction:
• In accordance with DS 02-527.
• Conductor: Stranded Class 2 tinned copper conductors to BS EN 60228.
• Insulation: Up to & including 16mm2 – silicone rubber insulation to BS7655 + fibre glass braid and lacquer.
25mm2 and above – silicone impregnated glass tapes.
• Core Identification: Cores shall be number printed.
• Outer Sheath: Black LFH (Limited Fire Hazard) outer sheath to DEF61-12 part 31. In addition, the outer sheath also displays the following characteristics:
Minimum oxygen index: 30%.
Maximum HCL emission @ 800°C: 0.5%.
• Flame retardant to BS EN 50266-2-3 NMV 3.5 (IEC60332-3-23 Category B) as a minimum.
• Meets 3 hour 750°C fire test (identical to IEC60331).
