cable T13

T13

Tramway signalling
Inter-city rail - Signalling main cables

Benefits

  • Cross-sectionally waterproof
  • Does not contain halogenated compounds
     

Applications

  • Main remote control and remote transmission cable, installed in multi-tubular sheaths, under roads or pavements, along DC-electrified lines up to 1500V
  • For "rail" or "tyre" tram lines at dedicated sites

General characteristics

schéma coupe T13

 

Cable interior

  1. Red copper solid core - Diameter 10/10 or 12/10
  2. Insulation: coloured polyethylene
  3. 4-wire wiring except in 4 pairs (twisted pair wiring)
  4. Shielding by aluminium tape with continuity wire

Protection

  1. Polyethylene water-blocking internal sheath 
  2. Armour by corrugated steel tape, longitudinally laid, with overlap, or by 2 spiral strips with joint
  3. High density polyethylene outer jacket + marking + metric
