NR/SP/ELP/40045 Cable Specification
Powering the Electric Point Heating systems is essential for maintaining railway operations during cold weather and extreme low temperatures. These heavy-duty cables offer protection from abrasion and mechanical impact whilst maintaining flexibility to ease installation. There is also an LSZH sheathed cable variation for use in tunnels and enclosed spaces.
This new standard for points heating cables replaced RT/E/PS/40045.
