POWERHARD M RVMV-K cable has been specially designed for installations in potentially explosion hazard locations (ATEX), provided that local regulations allow it. It is highly recommended for use in petrol stations, petrochemical plants, flammable product warehouses, etc. At the same time, it can be used in installations such as production plants, agricultural facilities, street lighting and installations in general where the cable is subject to high mechanical aggression.

POWERHARD M RVMV-K cable design
Conductor
Electrolytic copper, class 5 (flexible), based on EN 60228 and IEC 60228.
Insulation
Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE).
The standard identification of insulated conductors is the following:
1 x natural
2 x Blue + Brown
3 G Blue + Brown + Green/yellow
3 x Brown + Black + Grey
3 x + 1 x Brown + Black + Grey+ Blue (reduced cross section)
4 G Brown + Black + Grey + Green/yellow
4 x Brown + Black + Grey + Blue
5 G Brown + Black + Grey + Blue + Green/yellow
6 G or more conductors:
Black numbered + Green/yellow.
Armour bedding
PVC.
Armour
Galvanized steel wire armour. Aluminium armour is used in single-core cables to avoid parasite currents that may overheat the cable.
Outer sheath
Flexible PVC, black colour.
