Rubber Cable Is 9968 P2
Polycab offers a comprehensive range of HT rubber flexible cable conforming to IS 9968-2. These cables
are available in voltage grade of 1.9/3.3kv(E), 3.8/6.6kv(E), 6.35/11kv(E) or 6.6/6.6kv(UE), 12.7/22kv (E)
or 11/11kv(UE), 19/33kv(E), single core & three core with operating temperature 90°C and short circuit
conductor temperature 250°C.
The highly flexible and robust Polycab HT Rubber cable makes its use in steel mills, wind power mills, ships,
textile machines and turbines. Polycab Flexible rubber cable is highly resistant to Heat, oil, ozone & UV.
Conductor: High conductivity tin coated flexible copper conductor produced in-house from state-of-the
art Machine.
Screening: Conductor screened by semi-conducting tape followed by extruded semi-conducting layer for
voltage ratting 6.35/11kv(E) and above.
Screening: Insulation screened by semi-conducting tape followed by extruded semi-conducting layer and
tinned copper wire braiding as metallic screening for voltage ratting 6.35/11kv(E) and above.
Sheath: HOFR (Heat & Oil resistant flame retardant) reinforcing sheath.
Polycab assures the highest quality standard in every product by having stringent quality control with
requisite testing which are applied at every single stage from raw material to finished goods.
The construction is based on the application and requirement of the user against IS 9968-2.
