Allowable Ampacity for 1 AWG 3C Stranded Bare Copper Tape Unshielded XLPE PVC RE4H1(O)R 12/20KV Medium Voltage Cable: 100 Amps

About:

This cable is designed for medium voltage (12/20 kV) applications and is constructed with a 1 AWG (American Wire Gauge) size, making it suitable for significant power transmission over medium distances. The "3C" indicates it has three conductors, typically used in three-phase electrical systems. The stranded bare copper conductors ensure good flexibility and conductivity.

Also Known As:

This type of cable might also be known in the industry by other names or acronyms related to its construction and applications, such as MV (Medium Voltage) power cable, 12/20 kV unshielded power cable, or XLPE insulated cable.

Application:

• Indoor and outdoor installations in medium voltage applications.
• Power distribution in utility networks, industrial plants, and infrastructure projects.
• Connection to transformers, switchgear, and other MV equipment.
