Cable Assembly
- Three symmetrical grounding wires are cabled within the interstices of the phase conductors
- Non-hygroscopic fillers when required
- A binder tape is applied over the cabled core CCW
Armor
- Impervious, continuously welded and corrugated aluminum alloy sheath per C22.2 No. 23
Jacket
- Flame-retardant, moisture- and sunlight-resistant Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), black
- Meets CSA Low Gas Emission requirements, AG14
Applications
- Variable Frequency Drives: 3-conductor CCW armored cables with three (3) symmetrical grounding wires are the preferred wiring method for use with AC motors controlled by pulse-width modulated inverters in VFD applications
- CCW armored cables offer an economical, rugged and reliable alternative to labor-intensive cable in conduit wiring methods
- For use in industrial and commercial installations, including hazardous locations, in accordance with the CEC
- Can be installed in wet or dry locations, indoors or outdoors, in cable trays, in a raceway, or direct buried in accordance with the CEC
Features
- 90°C, 1000 V wet or dry XLPE insulation and three (3) symmetrical grounding wires, recommended for use with pulse-width modulated AC drives
- XLPE insulation has a dielectric constant less than 3.0 to withstand momentary voltage spikes common with VFD applications
- CCW armor provides an impervious barrier to moisture, gas and liquids
- CCW armor provides EMI shielding performance
- Factory assembled and tested cable for use as an alternative to cable in conduit wiring systems
- Meets cold bend and cold impact at -40C
- 90˚C continuous operating temperature, wet or dry
- 130˚C emergency rating
- 250˚C short circuit rating
