Class 2 Stranded Copper/ Low Smoke Zero Halogen Insulation / Aluminum Screen / Low Smoke Zero Halogen Sheath

Application

Designed for fixed wiring applications in which the cable is to be concealed within a partition or a building void. The product is designed to withstand a short circuit fault current when accidentally penetrated by a nail or other sharp object.

The cable is manufactured with a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) sheath, making it suitable for installations in public buildings where, in the event of fire, smoke and acid gas evolution would pose a hazard to public life and equipment.
