14 HO7RN-F FLEXIBLE GENERAL PURPOSE TRAILING CABLE Cable Construction Flexible copper conductors (Class 5 Annealed Copper Conductors), EPR based rubber insulated, cores laid up and Neoprene Rubber sheathed. Application This cable is suitable for use in dry, humid or wet environments and in open air. This cable is suitable for medium mechanical stress, in workshops and general industry. It is mostly used on industrial machinery, however is also suitable for use on home tools, electric motors and portable generators. HO7RN-F cable is highly suitable as a general purpose cable for temporary power supply, but also for use when installing cable in limited space or for use with small bending radius. Neoprene (CR) provides many of the attributes of natural rubber in jacketing but it does offer significantly better heat, ozone-corona, weather, chemical, oil and flame resistance. The mechanical characteristics of Neoprene makes it highly suited to a diverse range of applications including jacketing for all types of heavy duty and extra-heavy-duty mining cables. Max continuous operating conductor temperature in normal use: +60ºC (in every case of mobile installation) +85ºC (fixed protected installation) +200ºC (in short circuit) Permissible current rating is measured for an ambient temperature of 30ºC and a maximum operating and conductor temperature of 85ºC.

17 BELLS AND MAINS LOW VOLTAGE PVC CABLE Useful Technical Data Flamosafe Range of Fire Preformance Electric Cables Description FR (Flame Retardant) Red Stripe cables are designed to reduce the spread of fire along a cable tray or duct. However, when these cables burn, they give off large quantities of toxic gases and smoke. (FYRGARD ) (Common Type) LHFR (Low Halogen) Blue Stripe cables have specially formulated PVC that reduces the emission of hydro-chloric acid during burning of the cables. (LOHAL ) NHLSFR (Non Halogen) White Stripe cables are designed to reduce flame propagation and smoke in those instances where a fire may develop. By replacing the standard PVC with XLPE insulation and EVA bedding and outer sheath, no HCI gases will be liberated during the burning of the cables.

27 ARMADAC PVC PVC SWA PVC (FR) Black/Red 1.9/3.3kV d Cable Description Electrical and physical properties of 3 core PVC insulated PVC bedded SWA PVC sheathed 1.9/3.3kV cables with copper conductors and manufactured to D1 = Diameter over bedding sheath SANS d = Diameter of armour wire D1 D2 = Diameter over outer sheath D2 Installation Information The cost effectiveness of transferring power over long distances through intermediate step-up and step-down systems is desirable for the electrification of industrial and residential installations, including game lodges and agricultural industry applications. Armadac consists of 3 circular stranded plain soft copper conductors, PVC insulated, PVC bedded, Steel Wire Armoured, PVC sheathed, 1.9/3.3kV manufactured to SANS Ideally utilised for the transfer of electricity over long distances. Advantages of using an intermediate voltage cable over the conventional 400V 3-phase system offered by the increased voltage of 3,3kV include the fact that volt drop will be considerably lower and small conductor sizes (10mm², 16mm² or 25mm²) will suffice for most applications. The Armadac cable is steel wire armoured and provides a robust mechanical protection to the cable, hence it is suitable to be installed underground. Furthermore, Armadac offers additional protection against attack by rodents and other animals as provided by the steel wire armouring. The steel wire armouring can also be utilised as an earth continuity path, therefore eliminating the need for an external earth conductor. Armadac makes use of circular cores which limits electrical stress in the insulation and also incorporates a flame retardant PVC Sheath, which limits the spread of fire.

30 OVERHEAD ALUMINIUM CONDUCTORS ACSR Aluminium Conductor Steel Reinforced Overview Aluminium conductors have achieved wide acceptance all over the world for use in overhead transmission and distribution lines. Generally a steel core is used with the aluminium to give the conductor mechanical strength. This arrangement is termed Aluminium Conductor Steel Reinforced or ACSR. Conductors comprised entirely of aluminium are known as All Aluminium Conductors or AAC. These conductors are extensively used for busbars in outdoor substations where spans are short. All Aluminium Alloy Conductors or AAAC consist of an alloying of aluminium to give a tensile strength in excess of that of AAC, allowing longer spans. These conductors are recommended for coastal areas where severe corrosion is a problem. Hard drawn aluminium in H9 temper is used in both ACSR and AAC. High strain steel wire is used in ACSR and this is sometimes protected from corrosion by an application of grease. Such measures are particularly adopted when the conductor is intended for use in aggressive environments as encountered in coastal regions.

32 MV XLPE CABLE Medium Voltage Electric Cable 6.6kV to 33kV Properties and applications Due to the fact that Vultex XLPE insulation is resistant to high temperatures, it is obvious that higher temperatures are permissible in the cable. For XLPE, continuous conductor temperature up to 90 C are permissible, whilst for some hours a temperature of 130 C is permissible. In case of short-circuit the conductor can withstand considerably higher temperature (up to 250 C). This important specific characteristic, in contrast with those generally applicable to plastics, give XLPE insulated cables the following advantages: Suitable for a sustained conductor temperature of 90 C as a result of which a high current carrying capacity is obtained. Suitable up to 125 hours/annum, (no event being longer than 8 hours continuously) at a conductor temperature of 130 C so that emergency loads can be tolerated. No drainage problems. Clean handling. Relatively low cost per installed kva.
