Type P 2kV Armored Single Conductor Marine Power Cable is a single-conductor power cable for marine, offshore and oilfield installations that need mechanical protection and moisture-resistant construction. The documented design combines flexible tinned copper, irradiated XLPO insulation, metallic braid armor and a heavy-duty CSPE Type CP sheath.
Applications
Use this cable for power distribution on marine vessels, fixed or floating offshore facilities, and oilfield equipment. Final selection must match the installation route, operating voltage, environmental exposure and project requirements.
