Vanlige spørsmål

Hva er kabelen THW?

THW: Thermoplastic heat- and moisture-resistant building wire, 75 C. Merkedata: 600 V, 75 C dry and wet. Standard: UL 83; NEC Article 310. Navnet leses: T (Thermoplastic (PVC) insulation) + H (Heat resistant, 75 C (one H)) + W (Approved for wet locations).

Hva er kabelen AEIC-CS9?

AEIC-CS9: High voltage XLPE power cable, single conductor, 69 to 345 kV, as the makers print its legend (size, metal, wall in mils, class). Merkedata: 69, 115, 138, 161, 230 and 345 kV, 90 C. Standard: AEIC CS9-06 (1st edition, 2006); ICEA S-108-720.

Hva er forskjellen mellom THHN og TFFN?

THHN: Thermoplastic high heat-resistant nylon-coated building wire, 600 V, 90 C dry and damp locations. TFFN: Thermoplastic flexible fixture wire, nylon-coated, 600 V, 90 C. Navnene skiller seg i: THHN: HH (High heat resistant, 90 C (one H means 75 C)); TFFN: FF (Flexible fixture (stranded) wire).

NEC / UL (USA): hva betyr T i et kabelnavn?

T har mer enn én betydning, avhengig av typen: Thermoplastic (PVC) insulation (TW, THW, THHW, THWN +6); Thermoplastic (PVC) insulation and jacket (SJT, SJTW, SJTO, SJTOW +6); Thermoplastic (PVC) (SPT-1, SPT-2, SPT-3, SPT +1).

NEC / UL (USA): hva betyr 100% ved siden av et kabelnavn?

100%: Insulation level 100 %: ground faults cleared within one minute (ICEA). Skrives som 100%, 100 %, 100% INSULATION, 100 PERCENT.

Hva er kabelen THHN?

THHN: Thermoplastic high heat-resistant nylon-coated building wire. Merkedata: 600 V, 90 C dry and damp locations. Standard: UL 83; NEC Article 310. Navnet leses: T (Thermoplastic (PVC) insulation) + HH (High heat resistant, 90 C (one H means 75 C)) + N (Nylon outer covering).
