| 1 – Conductor |
: |
Electrolytic annealed solid copper (CCITT Yellow Book Vol. III-2-G.541 B article, IEC 28 and ASTM B 3). |
| 2 – Insulation |
: |
Color coded solid polyethylene insulation (BS 6234 Type 03 – ASTM D 1248). |
| 3 – Stranding |
: |
Star quads or pairs are assembled into 10 pairs units. Groups having 25, 50 or 100 pairs are stranded together. |
| 4 – Filling Compound |
: |
Cable core is filled with a special jelly filling compound to avoid the water leakage into air spaces. |
| 5 – Wrapping |
: |
A non-hygroscopic and dielectric polyester tape is applied on the cable core longitudinally or helically. |
| 6 – Filling Compound |
: |
Secondary jelly filling is applied between wrapping and screen in order to provide waterproofness. |
| 7 – Screen |
: |
Both sides are coated with copolymer coated flat aluminum tape over cable core longitudinally for screening. |
| 8 – Inner Jacket |
: |
Linear low-density or medium-density, UV resistant black polyethylene inner jacket (ASTM D 1248). |
| 9 – Bedding |
: |
Special tape is applied between inner jacket and armor. |
| 10 – Armor |
: |
Two helically laid galvanized steel tape is applied to increase the mechanical resistance of the cable. |
| 11 – Outer Jacket |
: |
Linear low-density or medium-density, UV resistant black polyethylene outer jacket (ASTM D 1248). |
