Australian Standard (Medium Voltage)

3.8/6.6kV Three Core Individual Screened & PVC Sheathed (Al Conductor)

Application

3.8/6.6kV Three Core Individual Screened & PVC Sheathed (Al Conductor) cables are designed to be used for the

supply of electrical energy in fixed applications up to the rated voltages at a nominal power frequency between

49Hz and 61Hz., 3.8/6.6kV Three Core Individual Screened & PVC Sheathed (Al Conductor) cables are suitable

for use in distribution installation, electrical power station , they are applied for installation, outdoors,

underground where subject to mechanical damage.
