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
