Abstract
An electric installation cable in which the insulated wires forming the core and serving to conduct electricity are bound together as one unit. For the simultaneous, undisturbed utilization of the cable for high frequency signals, the unit is made up of 4 cores (A) bound together to form a star-quad. A shield (3) made up of a plastic film (8) coated on both sides with aluminum is arranged over the cores (A). Tinned copper wires (4) are wrapped around the shield (3) to function as a ground wire (4) and a coat (5) of insulation material is arranged around the tinned copper wires (4).
Claims7
An electric installation cable with a core, in which insulated conductors, each comprising a wire and a surrounding insulation, forming the core and serving to conduct electricity are bound together as one unit, characterized in that:
- the unit comprises four of said insulated conductors (A) twisted together to form a star-quad;
- the insulation (2) of the conductors (A) has an inner layer (6) made up of a cross-linked polyolefin and an outer layer (7) made up of a foamed, also cross-linked polyolefin;
- an inner sheath (12) is extruded around the conductors (A);
- the inner sheath (12) is surrounded by a shield (3) of plastic film (8) coated with aluminum on both sides;
- tinned copper wires functioning as a ground wire (4) are twisted around the shield (3) in at least one layer;
- and
- the tinned copper wires (4) are surrounded by a jacket (5) made of insulating material.
An installation, comprising:
- a building comprising electric machines;
- and
- an electric installation cable installed in the building, the electric installation cable comprising a core in which insulated conductors, each comprising a wire and a surrounding insulation, forming the core and simultaneously conducting electricity and communications signals to the electric machines within the building, are bound together as one unit, characterized in that:
- the unit comprises four of said insulated conductors (A) twisted together to form a star-quad;
- the insulation (2) of the conductors (A) has an inner layer (6) made up of a cross-linked polyolefin and an outer layer (7) made up of a foamed, also cross-linked polyolefin;
- an inner sheath (12) is extruded around the conductors (A);
- the inner sheath (12) is surrounded by a shield (3) of plastic film (8) coated with aluminum on both sides;
- tinned copper wires functioning as a ground wire (4) are twisted around the shield (3) in at least one layer;
- and
- the tinned copper wires (4) are surrounded by a jacket (5) made of insulating material.
