Superior Essex Cable Buried Wire Aluminum Filled Cable Superior Essex Cheap Sale

Product Details

The Buried Wire Aluminum Filled (BW AF) cable is designed for direct burial applications and is available in 2, 3, 5 and 6 pair sizes. It is filled with an ETPR compound which is chemically and electrically compatible with all other materials in the wire. The compound completely coats each insulated conductor and fills the space between conductors. BW AF can also be used for distribution circuits and service entrance wires. Each conductor is insulated with solid polyolefin in distinctive colors. The insulation of the tip conductor is marked with a stripe of the mating ring insulation color to reduce the possibility of splitting pairs during installation. A black, weather-resistant polyvinyl chloride jacket is extruded over the shield and rip cord to protect the core from minor mechanical damage, degradation by sunlight and ingress of moisture and water.

Features 
• Non-hygroscopic core wrap
• Adhesive compound floods shield’s outer surface
• Rip cord

Benefits
• Protects the core and provides improved mechanical and electrical characteristics
• Provides a moisture barrier and inhibits corrosion
• Facilitates jacket removal

Specifications
Conductor – Solid annealed copper

Insulation – Polyolefin

Core Assembly – Individual conductor dimensions are tightly controlled to limit resistance unbalance of twisted pairs; pair twist lays are varied to minimize crosstalk and meet capacitance unbalance limits

Core Covering – Non-hygroscopic core wrap

Filling Compound – Wire core is completely filled with 80°C ETPR compound, filling the spaces between insulated conductors

Shield – Corrugated 6-mil (2-pair/3-pair) or 8 mil (5-pair/6-pair) bare aluminum tape longitudinally applied over the core wrap

Rip cord – Rip cord applied over shield and beneath jacket

Jacket – Weather-resistant PVC
