Construction

Conductor:Bare, soft drawn, annealed, flexible, rope-lay stranded copper per ASTM B3/B172
Separator Tape:Non-conducting tape applied between the conductor and insulation to facilitate stripping
Insulation:Ethylene Propylene Dien Monomer (EPDM). Color coded black, white, blue, red for sizes #4/0 and smaller and black, white, red, orange for sizes over 250 kcmil
Ground Conductors:Four insulated, bare, soft drawn, annealed, rope stranded, flexible lay copper per ASTM B3/B172
Fillers:Paper fillers applied as needed to round the cable core
Tape:Reinforcing tape applied over the cabled core for improved mechanical integrity and ease of stripping
Reinforcement Binder:Reinforcing twine applied over the tapped core
Jacket:Black, flame resistant, thermosetting Chlorinated Polyethylene (CPE)
