Flexible Screened Round Festoon CablesRHEYFESTOON®(C) (N)3GRDGC5G

Flexible Screened Round Festoon Cables

0.6/1 (1.2) kV

Applications

Heavy duty rubber cable for power supply. For festoon applications with mechanical tensile stress compared with dynamic stress. Especially developed to prevent electrical and electromagnetic disturbances and to protect parallel laying control cables against interferences.
