BVR as the cable designer builds it, 1x1.5 450/750 V
Overall diameter 3.0 mm, about 20 kg/km. Nominal values from the standard's tables for this size, computed, not a maker's data.
| Layer | Material | Thickness, mm | Over the layer, mm |
|---|---|---|---|
| Insulation | PVC | 0.70 | 3.0 |
BVR on a drum
The smallest drum that passes every check, for 3 mm and about 20 kg/km as the cable designer builds it. Drums as their makers print them; lengths are estimates within a few per cent of the cable makers' own tables: whole layers, wound diameter 1.05 × OD, 50 mm freeboard under the flange rim.
| Length | Drum size (its makers) | Layers | Gross weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| 500 m | KTG 3 (390 mm flange), plastic KTG drums (Europe), KTG | 8 of 26 | 12 kg |
| 1,000 m | KTG 3 (390 mm flange), plastic KTG drums (Europe), KTG | 15 of 26 | 22 kg |
Barrel at least 20 × OD = 59 mm for a cable of this kind (Low voltage, single core): KTG table, the cable's datasheet wins. A load rating is the drum maker's own.
