X-VOLT RHVhMVh 3x Cu +H1 cable design
Conductor
Electrolytic annealed copper, class 2, based on EN 60228 and IEC 60228.
Internal semiconductor
Screen over the conductor, made of thermosetting semiconductor material.
Insulation
Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) according to IEC 60502-2, in dry atmosphere catenary tube, through a triple layer extrusion process.
External semiconductor
Screen over the insulation, made of thermosetting and strippable semiconductor material.
Cable conductor identification
The conductors are identified with a tape placed along the cable between the external semiconductor and the metallic screen. Colors are; brown, green and yellow.
Metallic screen
Screen of copper tape. It consists in two copper tapes of 0,1 mm of thickness placed helicoidally and overlapped (H1 screen) over the outer semi-conducting screen.
Cabling
The three conductors are wound helicoidally with their screens in contact.
Bedding
The special PVC compound bedding gives a high level of resistance to hydrocarbons and mineral oils.
7. Armour
Galvanized steel wire wrapped helicoidally around the cable and fixed with a counter-wound metal tape.
8. Outer sheath
The special PVC outer sheath compound gives a high level of resistance to hydrocarbons and mineral oils. Red color.
