Description
This 16 AWG 3 conductor tray cable is a general purpose 600 volt shielded control cable for use where shielding from electro-static interference is required in power, control and lighting circuits. It is suitable for a broad range of commercial and industrial uses.
The Exposed Run (ER) rating on this cable means it meets crush and impact testing requirements, and is therefore tough enough to run outside a cable tray without additional protection, unlike standard tray cables which must be installed inside a conduit, raceway or other protection.
Applications:
- In free air, raceways, and direct burial
- In wet or dry locations
- Approved for direct burial
- Class 1, Division 2 industrial hazardous locations per NEC
