Insulation
Okoguard is Okonite's registered trade name for its exclusive ethylene-propylene rubber (EPR) based, thermosetting compound, whose optimum balance of electrical and physical properties is unequalled in other solid dielectrics. Okoguard insulation, with the distinctive red color and a totally integrated EPR system, provides the optimum balance for long, problem free service.

Jacket
The Okolon jacket on this cable is a vulcanized chlorosulfonated polyethylene based compound which is mechanically rugged, flame, radiation and oil resistant.

Applications
Okoguard-Okolon 2.4 kV cables are heavy duty nonshielded cables designed for use at up to 2.4 kV phase-to-phase in wet or dry locations in accordance with NEC Section 310.6 and Table 310.63.

Okoguard-Okolon nonshielded cables are recommended for power distribution and motor circuits in generating plants and substations; in industrial and commercial buildings.

Single conductors may be installed in industrial or commercial occupancies in triplexed or random lay in any raceway or duct in wet or dry locations, or in open runs as permitted by NEC Articles 396.

Sizes 1/0 AWG and larger, may be installed in cable trays where permitted by NEC Section 392.3.

(2) Ampacities are in accordance with Table 310.73 of the NEC for three single Type MV-90 conductors, or single conductors twisted together (triplexed) and installed in an isolated conduit in air at an ambient temperature of 40°C and a conductor temperature of 90°C.

(3) Ampacities are in accordance with Table 310.77 of the NEC for three single conductors or triplexed cable in one underground raceway, three feet deep with a conductor temperature of 90°C, 100% Load Factor, an ambient earth temperature of 20°C, and thermal resistance (RHO) of 90.

(4) Ampacities based on single Type MV-90 conductors, or single conductors twisted together (triplexed, quadruplexed, etc.), size 1/0 Awg and larger, installed in uncovered cable tray in accordance with Section 392.13 of the NEC at an ambient temperature of 40°C and a conductor temperature rating of 90°C. In accordance with NEC Section 392.13(B)(1), the ampacities are 75% of the values given in NEC Table 310.69 (copper conductors). Where the cable tray is covered for more than six feet with solid unventilated covers, the ampacities shall not exceed 93% of the values shown above.

Refer to the NEC, IEEE/ICEA-S-135 Power Cable Ampacities, or the Okonite Engineering Data Bulletin for other ambient temperatures, circuit configurations or installation requirements.

(5) Recommended size of rigid or nonmetallic conduit for three conductors based on 40% maximum fill.

*The jam ratio, conduit I.D. to cable O.D. should be checked to avoid possible jamming.
