Applications

As flame-retardant multi-conductor control, signal or power cables rated 600V, 90°C in wet or dry locations. Specifically approved for installation in cable trays per Article 336 of the NEC. Also approved for use in Class I remote-control and signaling circuits per Article 725 of the NEC. Type TC cable is suitable for use in Class I and II, Division 2 hazardous locations. Cables may be installed in air, in ducts or conduits, in tray or trough, and are suitable for direct burial.

Construction

Stranded uncoated copper conductors, 30 mils FR-XLPE flame-retardant cross-linked polyethylene insulation, color coded, conductors twisted with suitable fillers where necessary to make round, cable tape, helically applied copper tape shield, PVC jacket overall, surface printed.
