Applications
5-46 kV URD Cable (MV-90/MV-105)Underground Residential Distribution Cables are intended for use
in dry or wet locations for distribution of single or three phase medium voltage power. Suited for use
in wet and dry areas, conduits, ducts, troughs, trays, direct burial, sunlight, and where superior electri
cal properties are desired. These cables are capable of operating continuously at the conductor tem
perature not in excess of 90°C for normal operation. 130°C for emergency overload, and 250°C for short
circuit conditions.
