SUPERIOR ESSEX 04-093-85 6 PAIR 24AWG REEL/1000' FILLED CABLE DROP WIRE NEW Product Description
BDW A is a filled, double-jacketed buried wire intended for direct burial applications. Applications include distribution circuits and service entrance wires.
BDW A is designed to withstand installation stresses. BDW A is filled with an ETPR compound, which completely coats each insulated conductor and fills the air space between conductors. BDW A is recommended for non-gopher areas.
Physical Description
CONDUCTORS: Solid annealed copper in 19, 22 and 24 AWG.
INSULATION: Each conductor is insulated with solid polyolefin in distinctive colors. The insulation of the tip conductor is marked with a stripe of the mating ring insulation color to reduce the possibility of splitting pairs during installation.
CORE ASSEMBLY: Individual conductor dimensions are tightly controlled to limit resistance unbalance of twisted pairs. Pair twist lays are varied to minimize crosstalk and meet capacitance unbalance limits.
FILLING COMPOUND: The wire core is completely filled with an 80°C ETPR compound, filling the air spaces between insulated conductors.
INNER JACKET: A polyethylene inner jacket provides additional mechanical and moisture protection.
SHIELD: BDW A - A smooth, copolymer-coated, 8-mil aluminum tape is applied longitudinally over the inner jacket and is bonded to the outer jacket. The space under the tape is flooded to eliminate all air space.
OUTER JACKET: A black, linear low-density polyethylene provides a tough, flexible, protective covering that withstands exposure to sunlight, atmospheric temperatures, ground chemicals and stresses expected in standard installations
