Note:
The classification does only apply for polymeric insulated XLPE cables (dimensions acc. to DIN VDE 0276-620) with extruded conductive screen. Please contact our representative, when using other cable types.

The data given were determined diligently, but do not release our customers of the duty to carry out tests themselves in order to check the suitability of the products delivered by us for the intended use. We reserve the right to modify characteristic and performance data according to the present state of technology. Processing and use of the products cannot be controlled by us and are therefore exclusively in your field of responsibility.

Our products meet the VDE standards respectively correspond to DIN pages and IEC recommendations.

Attention: Before first design in please contact manufacturer.

The products, described in this catalogue, are designed for connection of bare energy cable conductors (Class 1 & 2) with description of round solid (RE), round stranded (RM), as well as sector solid (SE), sector stranded (SM) and round stranded compacted (RMV) for conductor temperatures up to 90 °C. All conductor filling materials like tapes, yarn, powder or similar need to be completely removed before the installation. A check on basis of the actual existing conductor dimensions by the user is indispensable. This applies also for the application of Class 6 conductors or other special conductor types.

Impact wrenches have to be approved by Nexans! Depending on different conductor material or conductor type, indicated values may differ from test values acc. to IEC 61238-1. The use of fine stranded conductors has to be approved by Nexans Power Accessories Germany GmbH.
