A CSA-type designation used to describe Armored Instrumentation and Control Cable. Available in either 300 Volt or 600 Volt with thermoset or thermoplastic insulation, this cable can be supplied with an overall shield, shielded pairs, shielded triads or unshielded in multi-conductor constructions from 2 to 72 conductors. The overall interlocked armor and PVC jacket provide a (-40ºC), HL, FT4 product (CSA Standard C22.2 No. 239). 600 Volt XLPE Insulation, Aluminum or Steel Interlocked Armored Cable with PVC Jacket Designation for Hazardous Locations (CSA Standard C22.2 No. 174) 300 Volt Non-Metallic Sheath Cable with XLPE or PVC/Nylon Insulation 300 Volt Non-Metallic Sheath Cable with PVC Insulation 600 and 5000 Volt Single and Multiple Conductor with Seamless Corrugated Aluminum Armor. A CSA-type designation for single- conductor or multi-conductor constructions similar to AC90 and ACWU90, except no bonding (grounding) conductor is required in the cable assembly. Also, the armor is a corrugated aluminum sheath, which serves as a bonding (grounding) conductor. The overall PVC covering on RA90 is required for wet or direct burial applications (CSA Standard C22.2 No. 123). 600 and 5000 Volt Thermoset Insulation, 90ºC Rating, Wet or Dry Locations 600 and 1000 Volt Thermoset Insulation, 90ºC Rating, Direct Burial 600 Volt Silicone Rubber Insulated Equipment Wire, Solid or 7-Strand 600 Volt Silicone Rubber Insulated Equipment Wire with Flexible Strand 600 and 5000 Volt Single and Multiple Conductor Cable with Inner Jacket, Aluminum or Steel Interlocked Armor with PVC Jacket Tray Cable Certified for Use in Class 1, Division 2 Areas 600 Volt Thermoplastic (PVC) Insulated Cable Suitable for Wet Locations 600 Volt Thermoplastic (PVC) Insulated Cable Suitable for Direct Burial
