Arctic Grade Cable
- Eland Product Group:
- A5A
- Application:
- Designed to withstand severe external temperatures remaining flexible at temperatures as low as -20°C. Arctic Grade PVC mains cords generally manufactured to BS6500 will remain flexible at temperatures down to minus 20°C making them particularly suitable for outdoor applications and for use where flexibility is required at sub zero temperatures. At normal temperatures the cable is very limp and flexible, offering some of the characteristics usually found in elastomeric cables.
