Description
Teck Cable, Armored 600 V, CSA TECK90, Multi-Conductor, 10 or 6 AWG (depending on variant sele, Stranded Bare Copper, XLPE/PVC/AIA/PVC.
TECK90 is an interlocked armored cable for use in petro-chemical, pulp and paper, and other industrial application environments. TECK90 can be used in open and concealed wiring, direct burial, and in hazardous locations.
The insulated conductors are made with cross-linked polyethylene and twisted with an uninsulated ground wire. The twisted core is covered with a PVC jacket, then covered with either interlocked aluminum or galvanized steel, and covered with a PVC jacket over the armor.
