Product Overview
The HEPRZ1 cable is a medium voltage aluminium power cable designed for the transmission and distribution of energy in medium voltage networks. It combines a compacted Class 2 aluminium conductor, HEPR insulation, and a halogen-free polyolefin sheath to deliver reliable electrical performance in fixed and protected installations.
Manufactured according to UNE-HD 620-9E, the HEPRZ1 features a triple-extruded insulation system and an overall copper shield, making it suitable for demanding medium voltage distribution applications where halogen-free construction is required.
