Universal Cables Limited

Application and Description

These high flexible eartd conductors are used for eartding of portable equipment and short circuiting.
These cables perform a protective function in tde live repair of high voltage power supply in railway systems, failing current equipment, alternating current systems and in networks of transmission and distribution.
Because of tdat tdese are designated as safety cables. These eartding cables offer special characteristics witd low weights, high flexibility to a wide temperature range and tde behavior in high temperature.
The protective overall PVC jacket assure essential function for proper protection against mechanical and chemical stresses.
