TC-ER Tray Cable – Exposed Run Industrial Cable – 300V/600V – PVC/XLPE Insulation

TC-ER Cable (Tray Cable, Exposed Run) is a multi-purpose control cable widely used in industrial, commercial and construction applications, especially in cable trays, ladder racks or exposed installation environments. Below is the product description and common parameters about TC-ER cable:

Conductor Material: Copper conductor (bare or tinned copper)
Conductor structure: stranded conductor to provide better flexibility
Insulation material: PVC, XLPE, TPE
Insulation thickness: according to cable specifications and voltage level
Sheath material: PVC, CPE or TPE
Sheath colour: black, grey or other customised colours
Voltage rating: typically 300V or 600V
Operating temperature: -40°C to 90°C
Heat resistance: some models can withstand temperatures up to 105°C
Shielding type: Unshielded (UTP) or Shielded (STP)
Shielding material: Aluminium foil shielding or braided copper mesh shielding

1.Cable structure
Number of Conductors: from 2 cores to tens of cores.
Conductor size: usually 18 AWG to 10 AWG.
Outer diameter: varies depending on the number of cores and gauge.
Flame Retardant Performance: Conforms to UL flame retardant standards (e.g. CMR, CMX, etc.).
Bend radius: typically 6 times to 10 times the cable’s outside diameter.

2.Application Scenarios
Industrial equipment control
Power distribution in commercial buildings
Power and control connections for mechanical equipment
Exposed installation environments (e.g., outside cable trays, ladder racks, or conduits)
