20 AWG 20T Stranded Bare Copper Al Tape PVC Gaalflex Instrumentation ITC-PLTC 300 STOS Tray Cable
Allowable Ampacity for 20 AWG 20T Stranded Bare Copper Al Tape PVC Gaalflex Instrumentation ITC-PLTC 300 STOS Tray Cable: 100 Amps
About:
This cable is designed for specific industrial and instrumentation applications. The “20 AWG” indicates the size of the wire, with “20T” likely referring to a two twisted pair configuration. “Stranded Bare Copper” suggests that the conductive material is made up of multiple small-gauge wires twisted together, which allows for more flexibility than a solid conductor.
Also Known As:
This type of cable might be known under various trade names, depending on the manufacturer, but generally, it could be referred to as Instrumentation Tray Cable, PLTC (Power Limited Tray Cable), or STOS (Shielded Tray Oil Resistant Sunlight resistant) Cable.
Application:
These cables are typically used in industrial settings for connecting control systems, instrumentation, intercom systems, and various other electronic equipment. They are designed to be used in cable trays, raceways, and outdoor locations where resistance to oil, chemicals, and sunlight is necessary.
Standards:
The cable likely complies with standards such as UL 13 for Power-Limited Circuit Cables, UL 2250 for Instrumentation Tray Cables, and may also be rated for certain NEC (National Electrical Code) compliance for use in hazardous locations, depending on its exact specifications.
