We manufacture a range of specialized wires for various applications such as domestic, commercial and panel manufacturing purpose. We manufacture the following types of wires:
1. Flame Retardant PVC Insulated Single core, Unsheathed Copper wire (up to 1100V AC)
Conductor: The conductors drawn from bright electrolytic grade copper, annealed and bunched together.
Insulation: The bunched conductors are insulated with specially formulated FR PVC compound with a high insulation resistance value. The insulation process is carried out on modern high-speed extrusion lines, which ensures high accuracy and consistency in performance. Flame retardant properties enable the cable to withstand overloads. The insulation is resistant to boiling water, steam and vapors.
Colors: Red, Yellow, Blue, Black, Green, Grey
Tests Performed:
| Test | Specification | Specified Values |
|---|---|---|
| Critical Oxygen Index | ASTM-D 2863 | Minimum 29% |
| Temperature Index | ASTM-D 2863 | Minimum 250 deg C |
TriCare Range of Wires:
(A) TriCare Bare Copper Conductor, PVC Insulated Unsheathed 1100V, Single Core wire for panel boards as per IS: 694-2010 (Up to 400sqmm)
(B) TriCare Bare Copper Conductor, PVC Insulated Unsheathed 1100V, Multi-Core wire for panel boards as per IS: 694/1990
(C) TriCare Plain Copper Conductor, PVC Insulated Unsheathed 1100V, Multi-Core wire
2. Flame Retardant Low Smoke PVC Insulated Single core, Unsheathed Copper Cable (up to 1100V AC)
Conductor: The conductors drawn from bright electrolytic grade copper, annealed and bunched together.
Insulation: The bunched conductors are insulated with specially formulated Flame Retardant Low Smoke compound. During a fire situation, the FR-LSH compound restricts the spread of flame. The smoke emission is also minimal.
Colors: Red, Yellow, Blue, Black, Green, Grey
Tests Performed:
| Test | Specification | Specified Values |
|---|---|---|
| Critical Oxygen Index | ASTM-D 2863 | Minimum 29% |
| Temperature Index | ASTM-D 2863 | Minimum 250 deg C |
| Acid Gas Generation | IEC 60754-1 | Minimum 20% |
| Smoke Density Rating | ASTM-D 2843 | Minimum 60% |
3. Zero Halogen Flame Retardant Insulated Single core, Unsheathed Copper Cable (up to 1100V AC)
Conductor: The conductors drawn from bright electrolytic grade copper, annealed & bunched together.
Insulation: The bunched conductors are insulated with a specially formulated grade of Halogen-free retardant (HFR) compound is used. The insulation does not melt or drop in case of fire. The smoke emitted is transparent, non-toxic and minimal. The victims trapped in a fire do not suffocate and evacuation is convenient.
Colors: Red, Yellow, Blue, Black, Green, Grey
Tests Performed:
| Test | Specification | Specified Values |
|---|---|---|
| Critical Oxygen Index | ASTM-D 2863 | Minimum 29% |
| Temperature Index | ASTM-D 2863 | Minimum 250 deg C |
| Acid Gas Generation | IEC 60754-1 | <0.5% |
| Smoke Density Rating | ASTM-D 2843 | Minimum 60% |
4. Solar Wire/Cable
Application: ATC flexible conductor, dual wall electron beam irradiation insulated for Photovoltaic Power applications for connection from PV Cell to Junction Box/Inverter in dry, damp or wet conditions.
Construction: Annealed Electro-Tinned fine copper strands (bunched to meet class 5 flexibility as per IEC 60228/VDE 0295), insulated and sheathed with Polyolefin Co-Polymer (XLPO), Electron beam crosslinked.
Sheath Colors: Red or black, black with red stripe also available (black recommended).
Advantages of Electron Beam Cross Linked XLPO:
- Continuous operating temperature of 120 deg C, hence higher current carrying capacity.
- Better UV & ozone resistance and improved weather resistance in adverse conditions.
- Improved oil and chemical resistance, improved crack resistance.
- Improved mechanical properties of the cables in elevated temperature conditions.
- Improved flammability properties, halogen free.
Standard/Material Properties:
- Fire Performance: IEC 60332-1-2
- Smoke Emission: IEC 61034-2/EN 50268-2 (light Transmission>60%)
- Halogen free: IEC 60754-1 (HCL content<0.5%) Expected life of cable: >25years at 90deg C
- Conforming to TUV 2Pfg-1169/08.2007 PV1F
- Solar DC cables as per standard EN 50618 are also available.
