SPEC: 46254
CU Compressed 5/8kV NLEPR Insulation 133/100% IL AIA PVC Jacket. MV 105 - Tray Rated - Sunlight Resistant - For Direct Burial
Type MV-105 Three Conductor Copper, 115 Mils No Lead Ethylene Propylene Rubber 5kv(NL-EPR) 133%; 8kv(NL-EPR) 100% Insulation Level, Tape Shield, Aluminum Interlocked Armor (AIA), Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) Jacket. Silicone Free
Application & Features
Southwire’s 5/8KV 133%/100% insulation level cables are suited for use in wet and dry areas, conduits, ducts, troughs, trays, direct burial, and where superior electrical properties are desired. These cables are capable of operating continuously at the conductor temperature not in excess of 105°C for normal operation, 140°C for emergency overload, and 250°C for short circuit conditions. Rated at -35°C for cold bend when UL listed. Rated at -40°C for cold bend and cold impact and marked with "LTGG" when CSA listed or dual UL/CSA listed. For uses in Class I and II, Division 2 hazardous locations per NEC Article 501 and 502.Rated for 1000 lbs./FT maximum sidewall pressure.

* NEC ampacities are based on:
* For Duct: Table 310.60(C)(13) Detail 1.
* For Free Air: Table 310.60(C)(5).
* Inductive impedance is based on non-ferrous conduit with one diameter spacing center-to-center.
* Sequence Impedance values are based on Rho Earth Resistivity: 100 Ohm-Meter/1000ft.
* Capacitive Reactance is between Phase-to-Shield.
