Medium voltage cable 3,6/6 kV with copper (Cu) conductor, PVC insulated and sheathed

Application

Medium voltage cable for outdoor installation, with protection against direct UV radiation, suitable for installation in ground, water, cable ducts, and concrete. It is intended for use in conditions where there is a risk of mechanical damage, but not for continuous mechanical stress or higher tensile loads.
The concentric conductor may be used as a neutral, protective, or earthing conductor. In the event of insulation damage caused by external metallic objects, it provides protection against touch voltage.
