(1) Ampacities are in accordance with Table 310.60(C)(73) of the NEC for triplexed or three single conductor copper cables in isolated conduit in air based on a conductor temperature of 90˚C (194˚F) or 105˚C (221˚F), temperature denoted in column header, and an ambient air temperature of 40˚C (104˚F). (2) Ampacities are in accordance with Table 310.60(C)(77) of the NEC for triplexed or three single conductor copper cables in underground ducts (three conductors per duct), based on a conductor temperature of 90˚C (194 ˚F) or 105˚C (221˚F), temperature denoted in column header, and an ambient earth temperature of 20˚C (68˚F), electrical duct arrangement per Figure 310.60 Detail 1, 100% load factor, and earth thermal resistance (rho) of 90. (3) Ampacities are based on single conductor Type MV-105 sizes #1/0 AWG and larger in an uncovered tray in accordance with Section 392.80(B)(2) of the NEC at an ambient air temperature of 40˚C (104˚F) the ampacities are based on 75% of the values per Table 310.60(C)(69), operating temperature denoted in column header. For cable trays with unventilated covers for more than 6 feet, the ampacities shall not exceed 70% of the values per Table 310.60(C)(69). (4) Based on nominal cable diameters, three single cables in the duct (PVC Schedule 40) with no ground wire and a maximum of 40% fill. Jam ratio has been considered but should be checked for individual installations. Note: a) Sizes smaller than 1/0 AWG do not include “FOR CT USE”. b) The NESC Lightning bolt symbol is on all Uniblend® constructions. 293 363 469 537 621 726 883 1049 1195 1555 2083 2981 3808 436 540 698 799 924 1080 1314 1561 1778 2314 3100 4436 5666 126 178 259 315 386 474 585 725 849 1165 1639 2427 3210 188 83 93 265 110 120 385 150 165 468 170 190 575 195 215 706 225 255 871 260 290 1080 295 330 1263 330 365 1735 395 440 2439 480 535 3611 585 655 4777 675 755 AMPACITY UNDERGROUND DUCT (2) 90˚C 90 115 155 175 200 230 260 295 325 390 465 565 640 TRAY (3) 105˚C 90˚C 105˚C 97 125 165 185 - - - - - - - - 215 195 220 245 225 250 275 260 290 315 300 335 345 335 370 415 415 460 500 515 575 610 665 745 690 795 890 SIZING (4) (INCHES) 2 2.5 2.5 2.5 3 3 3 3 3.5 3.5 4 5 5 CONDUIT Applications: • Superior performance in petrochemical plants, pulp and paper mills, sewage and water treatment plants, environmental protection systems, railroads, mines, utility power generating stations, steel mills, textile plants and other industrial three-phase applications • For use in wet or dry locations when installed in accordance with NEC • For use in aerial, conduit, open tray and underground duct installations • For use in direct burial if installed in a system with a ground conductor that is in close proximity, and conforms with NEC 250.4(A)(5) Features: • Rated at 105˚C • Excellent flame resistance – burns to an ash; does not exhibit thermoplastic drip • Excellent heat, moisture and sunlight resistance • Excellent flame resistance • Outstanding corona resistance • Flexibility for easy handling • High Speed low friction technology for easy cable pulling • High dielectric strength Compliances: • National Electrical Code (NEC) • UL 1072 • ICEA S-93-639/NEMA WC74 • ICEA S-97-682 • AEIC CS8 • UL listed as Type MV-105 for use in accordance with NEC, UL File # E90501 • UL 1685 (Sizes 1/0 AWG and larger) UL Flame Exposure Test • Sizes 1/0 AWG and larger are listed and marked “Sunlight-Resistant FOR CT USE” in accordance with NEC • IEEE 1202 (70,000 BTU/hr)/CSA FT4 • EPA 40 CFR, Part 261 for leachable lead content per TCLP method • OSHA Acceptable • RoHS Compliant Packaging: • Material cut to length and shipped on non-returnable wood reels.
