BS 6346 PVC Insulated Cables,1900/3300V
Three-core 1900/3300 V cables with stranded copper conductors
APPLICATION
These cables are used for power and control circuits, they can offer excellent protection through the use of a heavy galvanized steel wire armour, so they are well adapted to underground use in industrial applications, in moist areas.
