Description:
Type UF-B cable is an underground feeder power cable that has a ground wire and two or three phase conductors. The conductors have a tough insulation that can counter the excess moisture and high heat available underground. The conductors are available in stranded and solid types. The solid conductors are excellent for grounding because they have very little surface area- exposure.
Type UF-B cable has a maximum ampacity of 600V. This is for operation in both wet and cold locations. It can operate in environments with temperatures not exceeding +90°C.
Applications:
For all the indoor or outdoor applications, industrial or commercial applications, the working temperature of Type UF-B cable should not exceed 90OC and an ampacity of 600V. Functions in both indoor and outdoor applications.
• Direct burial applications
• Underground distribution
• Used for wiring in branch circuits; for indoor agricultural and residential buildings
• Power distribution from inside to the outside of s building. i.e. outdoor lamps and pumps.
Conductor:
• Soft annealed copper conductor; has optimum stability and conductivity
• Type THWN-2 or THHN conductors
• Comes in; two or three phase conductors
• A single ground wire; solid copper wire
Insulation:
• Individual conductor insulation with, Polyvinyl-Chloride, PVC
• The PVC is lead free, moisture resistant and always dry
• Color-coded individual insulation for easy identification
Jacketing:
• Individual conductor jacketing; gray PVC armor
• Overall cable jacketing with PVC armor
• The PVC has high dryness, moisture free and moisture resistant.
• Resistance to fungus and UV rays
Stranding:
Available in two types of stranding;
• Compressed stranding;
• Solid wire design
• Compressed design – recommended tasks requiring high flexibility.
• Solid copper design – highly corrosive outdoor environments; it has a low surface area exposure. Is also cost effective.
Features:
• Excellent resistance from fungi and insect bites
• Resistant to water and moisture
• Lead-free
• Resistance to sunlight, UV
• Functions in wet and dry environments
• 600v ampacity
• Maximum of +90°C working temperature
Specifications:
• Meets the standard 83 of UL
• Standard 493 of the UL
• NEC compliant
• ANSFI/NFPA
• A-A-59544 Federal Specification.
