600 Volt ECOSAFE™ RHW-2 Cable
Single conductor 600 Volt RHW-2 non-halogenated cable with stranded copper conductors, extruded insulation system consisting of a thermosetting EPR-based insulation, and a thermosetting polyolefin outer insulation.
Design Parameters
Conductor: Annealed, Class B, concentric compressed, round bare copper strands are the standard option. Other strand types in accordance with ASTM specifications are available for enhanced flexibility.
Insulation: This product features a dual-layer design where the inner and outer layers are co-extruded, creating a tightly bonded system. The inner layer is made from an EPR-based compound, optimized for excellent electrical properties. The outer layer consists of a cross-linked EVA-based polyolefin, specifically formulated to provide a durable exterior. This layer also offers the benefits of being low-smoke and halogen-free.
