HEPRZ1 Cable – UNE-HD 620-9E LSZH Medium Voltage Aluminium Cable

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.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Medium Voltage Performance: Designed for medium voltage energy transmission and distribution networks.

  • Aluminium Conductor: Stranded, circular, and compacted Class 2 aluminium conductor according to IEC/EN 60228.

  • HEPR Insulation: Internal semiconductor, HEPR insulation, and semi-detachable external conductor applied by simultaneous triple extrusion.

  • Halogen-Free Sheath: Polyolefin outer sheath supports LSZH / halogen-free cable requirements.

  • Copper Shield: Annealed copper wire core arranged in open helix plus copper strap for overall cable shielding.

  • High Conductor Temperature: Maximum conductor temperature of +105°C.

  • Short-Circuit Withstand: Maximum short-circuit temperature of +250°C for max. 5 seconds.
