202-10-2509 Okonite-FMR Okolon TS-CPE Type TC-ER Cable 10 AWG – 9 Conductors
[short]
[/short]
Insulation
Okonite-FMR is Okonite’s trade name for its heat, moisture, flame and chemical resistant, mechanically rugged ethylene-propylene insulating compound.
The single conductors are color coded with solid and tracer colors as required for proper identification.
The properties of Okonite-FMR insulation substantially enhance the well known features of ethylene-propylene rubber insulations.
Overall Jacket
The overall Okolon TS-CPE jacket is thermoset chlorniated polyethylene compound. This combination construction assures circuit integrity because of its high mechanical strength and excellent resistance to moisture, ozone, and most chemicals.
Applications
Okonite-FMR Okolon TS-CPE Type TC-ER tray cable is permitted for use on power, lighting, control, and signal circuits; indoors or outdoors; in cable trays, raceways, direct burial in the ground, or where supported in outdoor locations by a messenger wire; for Class 1 circuits as permitted in Article 725 of the NEC; and in cable trays in Class I, Division 2 hazardous locations in industrial establishments where the conditions of maintenance and supervision assure that only qualified persons will service the installation.
Cables Marked TC-ER may also be used between a cable tray and the utilization equipment or device, when installed in accordance with NEC 336.10(7).
