    This document provides specifications for airport lighting cable that is used for runway and control system lighting circuits. The cable comes in 600 volt and 5kV versions with copper conductors and cross-linked polyethylene insulation. It is capable of operating at temperatures up to 90°C normally, 130°C in emergencies, and 250°C in short circuits. The cable meets FAA and ICEA standards and has 7-strand copper conductors with insulation thicknesses ranging from 60-110 mils depending on voltage and gauge.

    Airport Lighting Cable

    600 Volt and 5kV. Copper Conductor. XLP Insulation.

    APPLICATIONS
    Southwire Airport Lighting Cable is primarily used for series lighting circuits for runways, control systems, and other multi-purpose installations. It can be used for direct burial, conduit, or raceway. These cables are capable of operating continuously at a conductor temperature not in excess of 90C for normal operation, 130C for emergency overload conditions, and 250C for short circuit conditions. Voltage rating for conductors is 600 volts and 5,000 volts.

    SPECIFICATIONS
    Southwire Airport Lighting Cable meets or exceeds FAA Specification L-824, AC150/5345-7D, and ICEA S-66-524.

    CONSTRUCTION
    Southwire Airport Lighting Cable conductors are annealed (soft) copper, compressed 7 strand. 600V cable insulation is an abrasion, moisture, and heat resistant black cross-linked polyethylene. 5kV cable has an extruded semi-conducting cross-linked conductor shield with an abrasion, moisture, heat, and 20-mil track resistant cross-linked polyethylene insulation.
