TPEV-CC, TPUEV-CC : POLYETHYLENE INSULATION PVC SHEATHED CABLE ANNEALED COPPER CONDUCTOR

GENERAL

This specification covers the requirements of copper conductor polyethylene insulated and polyvinyl chloride sheathed cable, to be used for connecting subscriber equipments inside the building.

CONSTRUCTION :
Conductor : Solid annealed bare copper wire, 0.40, 0.50,0.65 and 0.90 mm. (26,24,22,19 AWG) in size.
Insulation : Color coded solid high density polyethylene.
Twisted Pairs : The insulated conductors are twisted into pairs with specified color combinations to provide pairs identification
Cable Assembly : Cables having 25 pairs and less are assembled in a single group. Cables having more than 25 pairs are assembled in units each being identification by color coded unit binders.
Identification Tape : A tape, indelibly marked with the following details, shall be laid over the cable core or under the outer lapping tape (nonhygroscopic dielectric material)
     a. Manufacturers Name
     b. Year of Manufacture (Duration of two years)
         Or the marking shall be printed on the outer lapping tape. The marking shall appear at intervals not more than 50 cm throughout the cable length.
Core Covering : Nonhygroscopic dielectric tape.
Jacket : Polyvinyl chloride Colored Ivory or Grey.
Identification Marker : Manufacturer's name, year and kind & size.
Remark : TPEV-CC mean cables having 25 pairs or fewer TPUEV - CC mean cables having more than 25 pairs and the pairs are assembled in units.
