P17 BU 0.6/1kV
Description

Application
P17 BU is used for fixed installation on offshore units in all locations except where
there are mud projections. P17 BU type meets IEC 60331 fire resistant
performances, withstands the IEC 60332-3-22 fire test on bunched cables and
performs to the Norwegian Petroleum Directorate (NPD) requirements.
All materials used to manufacture this cable are halogen free. This design
ensures that non corrosive and low toxic gases are emitted in case of fire.

Design
