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 of
electrical and physical properties 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, oil and sunlight resistant.
Applications
Okoguard-Okolon 8kV cables are heavy duty nonshielded cables designed for use at up to 8kV
phase-to-phase in wet or dry locations in accordance with NEC Section 310.6 and Table
310.63.
Single conductor cables may be installed in a raceway, in free air on insulators; as
connectors between transformers; as aerial lines on pole tops or preassembled or fieldspun
to a messenger.
Single conductors may be installed 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. |
