Applications
RHZ1 cables are medium voltage cables used in various power distribution networks, including for large industrial facilities, power plants, transformer stations, and renewable energy projects like wind and solar farms. Their applications are suited for underground installations in tunnels and trenches, or direct burial, where they offer fire safety and resistance to moisture due to their halogen-free polyolefin sheath. Different versions like RHZ1-OL and RHZ1-2OL provide enhanced water protection, while AS variants offer fire-retardant properties for critical areas.
