RHV and RHZ1 Cables

The RHV and RHZ1 cables with rated voltages of 6/10kV are manufactured in accordance with Spanish national standard UNE 21-161-93.The RHV cable is a copper cable with PVC outer sheathing, whilst the RHZ1 is a copper cable with a Halogen-free Polyolefin outer layer. Both are XLPE insulated for a maximum conductor operating temperature of +90oC. It is specified to operate in conditions down to -20^oC. The cables can be used in either static of dynamic installations - the bend radius changes accordingly.

These cables are available in other voltages as required on request, including 8.7/15kV, 12/20kV, and 18/30kV.

Depending on the regulatory requirements of the installation environment, and owing to the Spanish standard specification this cable, both RHV and RHZ1 cables hold CPR Euroclassification compliance. All our MV cables are rigorously QA tested in our MV laboratory under ISO17025 mandated conditions.

Whilst these Medium Voltage cables are designed for general power distribution and can be used in a wide range of applications and installation environments, the RHV and RHZ1 cables have been frequently specified in primary airfield lighting applications. Like the FLYCY & FL2XCY cables they can be used for lighting equipment series circuits linking the Constant Current Regulator and isolating transformers, or interconnecting multiple isolating transformers.
