SPEC: 46002
CU Compressed 2.4kV NLEPR Insulation PVC Jacket. MV 90
Type MV-90 Single Conductor Copper, No Lead Ethylene Propylene Rubber (NL-EPR) Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) Jacket
Application & Features
Southwire’s 2.4KV cables are suited for use in wet and dry areas, conduits, ducts, troughs, direct burial, and where superior electrical properties are desired. These cables are capable of operating continuously at the conductor temperature not in excess of 90°C for normal operation, 130°C for emergency overload, and 250°C for short circuit conditions. Cable can be installed in conduit without the aid of lubrication. Rated for 1000 lbs./FT maximum sidewall pressure.
