- What are Cables?
- Cables transmit electrical power, control signals, instrumentation signals, and data throughout vessels. Common types include Power Cables (for main electrical distribution), Control Cables (for control systems), Instrumentation Cables (for sensors and measurement circuits), and Data Cables (for communication and network systems).
- What are the different types of Cables?
- Common types include Power Cables, Control Cables, Instrumentation Cables, Data Cables.
- What standards apply to Cables?
- Products in this category typically reference IEC 60092-350:2020 (Power), IEC 60092-376:2017 (Control and Instrumentation), and IEC 61156 (Data). Flame retardant testing (IEC 60332) is typically required.
- Buyer requirements
- Procurement typically requires Conductor Size (mm²), Number of Cores, and Voltage Rating to match circuit breaker and load requirements. Conductor Material (Copper; Aluminum), Insulation Type (EPR; XLPE), Sheath Material, Flame Retardant Test certification (IEC 60332-1; 3), and Temperature Rating are critical for safety and environmental compatibility. Instrumentation cables typically require Shielding Type specifications for noise immunity. Data cables require Impedance specifications (100Ω for Ethernet).
