National Standard for HDPE for Optical Cable Sheathing

BS EN 50290-2-24 gives specific requirements for polyethylene sheathing compounds for use in the inner and outer sheathing of communication cables including fibre optic cables. It is expected to be read in conjunction with EN 50290-2-20, the product standards EN 50407 series, EN. This is the standard sheathing material for cables for outdoor use. The material is UV stabilised with using 2. The series covers a wide. The International Electrotechnical Commission's standard IEC 60840 references the requirements for cables and cable accessories with a voltage rating from 30kV (Um 36kV) to 150kV (Um 170kV).
