U-1000 AR2V is a low voltage armored power cable designed for fixed installations in both industrial and commercial environments. It complies with NF C 32-322 / CENELEC HD 603 standards and is suitable for 0.6/1 kV voltage levels. These cables for energy distribution are suitable for all types of low voltage industrial-type connection, in urban grids, building installations, etc. Particularly suited in cases of high operating temperature and when high resistance to solar radiation and atmospheric agents is required. Good resistance to low temperature and chemical agents. Can be used without additional mechanical protection in the open air, fixed to walls or in raceways, inside walkways, and in empty in Cable Constructions in general. Can be laid underground with mechanical protection constructed from slabs, tiles, or bricks. They are not recommend to lay this cable in ground flooded for more than two months per year. With appropriate mechanical protection it can be use in areas subject to risk of explosion, but in this case the permitted current load is reduced by 15%.
U-1000 AR2V Cable Typical Applications:
Power Distribution Networks
Used in low voltage electrical distribution systems for power supply and lighting.
Direct Burial Installations
Thanks to its steel tape armor (A), this cable can be installed directly underground without additional mechanical protection.
Industrial Environments
Suitable for areas where cables may be subject to mechanical stress, crushing, or impact (e.g., factories, warehouses).
Buildings and Infrastructure
Commonly used in commercial buildings and residential infrastructure for main power connections.
Cable Trays, Conduits, and Trenches
Can be installed in trays, ducts, or buried in trenches due to its strong mechanical resistance.
