ULTROL® 60+ Control Multi-Conductor Cable
ULTROL® 60+ instrumentation cable is a 600 V multi-conductor cable designed with a thermoset, Class 1E-rated construction. This cable is specifically intended for both safety-related and non-safety-related applications in nuclear generating stations, where flame retardancy and radiation resistance are critical. It is suitable for use in Class 1E power distribution and control circuits, including lighting and control systems. The cable can be installed in trays, conduit, ducts, or directly buried in the ground.
