Shielded XPTC tray cable features stranded copper conductors insulated with crosslinked polyethylene (type XHHW-2) for moisture and heat resistance. Each phase is identified and cabled together with fillers and/or binders as required.

The cabled core is protected with an aluminum-mylar shield and a tinned copper drain wire, followed by an overall black oil and gas-resistant PVC jacket.

KrisTech’s 600 V rated tray cable is built for industrial applications and is suitable for Class 1 and 2, Division 2 hazardous locations. It is direct burial rated, can be safely installed in cable trays, raceways, and conduit, and performs well across wet and dry locations, indoors and outdoors, and in temperatures ranging from -25°C to 90°C.

Tray cable is used for power, lighting control, or signaling, and has applications in oil and gas, wastewater treatment plants, pulp and paper, and electrical co-generation.

Standard Products

KrisTech’s shielded XPTC tray cable meets the following standards and tests, including:

  • UL 1277
  • ICEA S-73-532 / NEMA WC 57
  • ICEA S-95-658 / NEMA WC 70

  • Conductors – Single conductors are solid or stranded and annealed or hardened uncoated copper. Tinned conductors and other stranded configurations are available upon request.
  • Insulation – Single conductors are insulated with a concentrically applied XLPE (crosslinked polyethylene) insulation that is VW-1 flame and “Oil and Gasoline Resistant I” rated. All black insulation is rated “Sunlight Resistant.” All colored insulation is rated “Sunlight Resistant” in sizes #6 AWG and larger, and optional in sizes #8 AWG and smaller.
  • Shield – The assembly is lined with an optional tinned copper drain wire and then wrapped with an Aluminum-Mylar shielding.
  • Jacket – The assembly is jacketed with a concentrically applied PVC jacket. The overall cable profile will be similar to the interior conductor assembly layout.

Print legends on the wire include the manufacturer, conductor size, voltage rating, UL symbol (if applicable) and type designation. Standard length spools are 500 or 2,500 feet.
