Description
Belden 29500 010 is a 300% ground flexible VFD cable for Variable Frequency Drives (VFD), AC motor and drive systems, and Class 1 Division 2 hazardous locations. It is built with (3) 16 AWG (26x30) TC - Tinned Copper circuit conductors with XLPE insulation, plus a PVC insulated ground and an additional 16 AWG TC - Tinned Copper ground/drain. For noise control, it uses an overall Beldfoil® shield with 100% coverage and an 85% Tinned Copper braid. The cable has a black PVC outer jacket with ripcord and includes 600V TC-ER 90C Dry/Wet and 1000V Flexible Motor Supply Cable WTTC 1000V ratings.
