BS5308 Cable Part 1 Type1 XLPE-OS-LSOH

 

Applications :

  • The unarmoured LSOH versions (Part 1 Type 1) are generally use for indoor installation and suitable for wet and damp areas. Generally used within industrial process manufacturing plants for communication, data and voice transmission signals and services, Also used for the interconnection of electrical equipment and instruments, the LSOH sheath can reduce toxic smoke and fume emission.

Construction :

  • Conductor Annealed or tinned copper, sizes: 0.5mm² and 0.75mm² mulitistranded(Class 5), 0.5 mm², 1.0 mm² solid(Class 1), 1.5mm² or 2.5mm², multistranded(Class 2) to BS6360
    Insulation XLPE (Cross Linked Polyethylene), or PE (optional)
    Pairing Two insulated conductors uniformly twisted together with a lay not exceeding 100mm
    Colour code See technical information
    Binder tape PETP transparent tape
    Collective screen Aluminium/polyester tape is applied over the laid up pairs metallic side down in contact with
    tinned copper drain wire, 0.5mm²
    Outer sheath LSOH(Low Smoke Zero Halogen) sheath
    Flame retardant to IEC60332-3-22
    Fire resistant to IEC60331
    Halogen free to IEC60754-1
    Low smoke emission to IEC61034-1-2
    Sheath colour Black or blue
