AutomationDirect: Instrumentation & PLTC Cables

December 8, 2020

AutomationDirect offers 300V UL Instrumentation Cable available with 16 AWG, 18 AWG or 20 AWG conductors in 1, 2, 4, or 8 twisted pairs with an overall shield or in 2, 4, or 8 individually shielded twisted pairs with an overall shield.

  • The overall shielded cables have an aluminum/polyester foil shield with 100% coverage and a tinned copper continuous drain wire for protection against external electrical noise interference.
  • Cables with both individually shielded pairs and an overall shield have aluminum/polyester foil shields with 100% coverage complete with separate tinned copper continuous drain wires for maximum effectiveness against both external electrical noise interference and crosstalk between pairs.
  • Individual conductor pairs are stranded bare copper with black and white premium grade PVC insulation and marked with alpha-numeric print for easy identification. The cable’s outer jacket is a black premium grade PVC that is sunlight and moisture resistant.
  • A convenient 22 AWG orange PVC insulated communications conductor (talk wire) is included on 16 AWG & 18 AWG multi-pair cables.

 

Industrial Applications

These instrumentation cables are dual listed as UL 2250 Type ITC (Instrumentation Tray Cables) and UL 13 Type PLTC (Power Limited Tray Cables).

  • Type ITC cables can be used for instrumentation and control circuits operating at 150 volts or less and 5 amperes or less as described in NEC Article 727.
  • Type PLTC cables can be used for Class 2 and Class 3 remote-control, signaling, and power-limited circuits as described in NEC Article 725. Additionally these cables are permitted for use in hazardous locations as described in NEC Articles 501 through 505.
