Insulation / sheathing material used are PVC, HR-PVC and Polyethylene as per
customer's requirement.
Shielding material shall be as per customer's requirements. Some types of
shielding materials used are given below:-
a) Aluminium-mylar tape screening along with drain wire of ATC.
b) Copper tape screening along with drain wire of ATC.
c) ABC / ATC wire braiding
Armouring material in case of armoured cables shall be of galvanised steel round
wire/strip.
Cables can also be supplied with Flame Retardant (FR) or Flame Retardant Low
Smoke (FRLS) or Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) sheathing compounds as per specific
requirements of customer.
