Variable-Frequency Drive Motor Cable
This cable is used in variable-frequency drive motors. It has a layer of braid and foil shielding that provides excellent protection against signal interference caused by voltage fluctuations and current spikes. The industry designation is WTTC, so it can be installed in cable trays or raceway in a wind turbine generator. It’s flame rated FT4 to meet requirements for preventing the spread of flames based on a timed test with material mounted to a vertical tray. The insulation resists oil.
Cable with power wires sends electricity to run a motor. Cable with three uninsulated ground wires pairs a ground wire with each power wire, so you can create multiple circuits from the same cable. These wires aren’t counted in the cable’s number of wires.
