Description

(–40°C) EXELENE® XLPE Insulated Wire 1 kV 90°C Underground Service Entrance and Branch Circuit Wire

Standards

National :  CSA C22.2 N° 38

Description

CSA File #LL23462 Class 5832 03

 

Single solid or compressed stranded copper conductor with low temperature moisture resisting EXELENE® cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation. Rated 1000 volts.

RoHS compliant.

Colours: Standard colours are available.

 

Application

For direct earth burial (with protection as required by inspecting authority -
direct buried installations must comply with CE Code Rules 12-012 and 4-004).
For exposed wiring where exposed to weather with sunlight resistant insulation. Black and colours 6 AWG and larger are sunlight resistant and marked "SR". For service entrance above or below ground.
Minimum recommended installation temperature minus 40°C (with suitable handling procedures).
Maximum conductor temperature 90°C.  Nexans INSTAGLIDE® reduced friction construction in copper sizes 6 AWG and larger, black and colours.

Notes:
1) Where stated, “nominal” and “approximate” values are provided for information purposes only
and are subject to standard manufacturing tolerances.
2) Based on CE Code Table 1, for single conductors in free air.
3) Based on CE Code Table 2, for not more than 3 current carrying conductors in a cable or 
raceway.
4) For 3-wire 120/240 V and 120/208 V residential services or sub-services the allowable 
ampacity for 6 AWG shall be 60 amperes, and 2/0 AWG shall be 200 amperes. In this case, 
the 5% adjustment Rule (CE Code Rule 8-106(1)) cannot be applied.
5) The overcurrent protection shall not exceed 15 amperes for 14 AWG, 20 amperes for 
12 AWG, and 30 amperes for 10 AWG after any corrections factors for ambient temperature 
and number of conductors have been applied (CE Code Rule 14-104(2)), or as provided for
 by other Rules of the CE Code.
6) The maximum conductor temperature (used to determine the maximum conductor ampacity) 
shall be based on the lowest temperature rating of the electrical equipment, any wire connector, 
or cable (CE Code Rule 4-006).
