646 AWG 3C TC Shielded Nylon Tape Braid EPR GAALSHIP Medium IEEE Type E 8KV Offshore Cable

Allowable Ampacity for 646 AWG 3C TC Shielded Nylon Tape Braid EPR GAALSHIP Medium IEEE Type E 8KV Offshore Cable: 100 Amps

About:

This 646 AWG 3-conductor cable is specifically designed for offshore and marine applications. It features tinned copper conductors, Ethylene Propylene Rubber (EPR) insulation, and a combination of nylon tape and braided shielding. The cable is armored and jacketed to provide excellent protection against harsh environmental conditions. It is rated for medium voltage applications up to 8KV and meets several stringent industry standards.
