Listed diameter, mass and bending radii are for PVC/HDPE Composite Sheath.
Bending radius based on 25x OD (during installation) and 15x OD (installed) for PVC/HDPE sheath.
Bending radius may be lowered to 18x OD (during installation) and 12x OD (installed) for PVC sheath.

Lengths and packing can be supplied to customers requirements.
For glanding details, contact your local service centre.
NB: Stranding in compacted conductors may be subject to minor variations.

(a)- Based on 30C ambient air temperature and where applicable,
burial depth of 0.8m, soil temperature of 15C and thermal resistivity
of 1.2Cm/W.

(b)- For fault durations other than one second, divide the appropriate
given value by the square root of the required time (in seconds).

Screen fault ratings are based on an initial temperature of 80C and a
final temperature of 250C.

Conductor fault ratings are based on an initial temperature of 90C
and a final temperature of 250C.
