• Traffic signal cable is used for the interconnection of traffic signal equipment or other applications
  requiring high core configurations with mechanical robustness.

• Standard and Approval:

  BS 6346, BS 6360, BS 7655

Cable Construction: :

• - Conductor: Solid plain annealed copper, comply with BS 6360, Class 1 - Insulation: Polyvinyl chloride (PVC), TI1, comply with BS 7655 - Bedding(for Armoured Cable Only): Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) compound - Armor(for Armoured Cable Only): Galvanized steel wire armor - Sheath: Polyvinyl chloride (PVC), TM1, comply with BS7655 - Sheath color: Orange

Core Identification :

• 4 core - Red, Blue, Yellow, Green
  8 core - Brown, Yellow, Green, Red, White, Blue, Black, Orange
  12 core - Brown, Yellow, Green, Red, White, Blue, Black, Orange, Red/White, Grey, Red/Blue, Violet
  16 core - Brown, Yellow, Green, Red, White, Blue, Black, Orange, Red/White, Grey, Red/Blue, Violet,
