Three Core Screened Power CablePVC Insulated Screened, PVC 600/1000V 700C Type MCCMK

For connection between frequency

convertor and motor on variable speed

drive systems. The screened cable

ensures that the radiated emissions

from the complete system meet the

requirements of EMC directive

89/336/EEC (amend 92/31/EEC), thus

ensuring operation of nearby radio,

telecommunication, medical equipment

and other devices are not affected. The

screen also offers immunity from other

electrical phenomena such as ESD,

fast transient bursts, radiating magnetic

fields etc. May also be used in

applications where mains cable must

be shielded to prevent disturbance on

nearby sensitive equipment. Screen

also provides low resistance path.

• In accordance with SFS4880

• Conductors: Solid Class 1 or stranded

Class 2 to BS6360/IEC60228

• Insulation: PVC insulation.

• Core Identification: Cores will be

numbered 1-3 in white ink on black

simultaneously (i.e. live and neutral) and the two core rating should be taken. In

instances where several cores are loaded simultaneously, the following rating factors

should be applied to the 2 core current rating:
