APPLICATIONS
NMD90 cables may be used for both exposed work in dry locations or concealed work in dry or damp locations.
The maximum allowable conductor temperature is 90°C. The minimum recommended installation temperature is -25°C
for two-conductor cables and -10°C for three-conductor cables (with suitable handling procedures). Material should be
properly stored above 0°C for 24 hours prior to installation.
The maximum voltage rating for all intended applications is 300 volts. Consult the Canadian Electrical Code1 for further
information related to applications.
CODES / STANDARDS
NMD90 cables meet or exceed the
following requirements:
CONSTRUCTION
ASTM
CSA C22.2 No. 48 (non-metallic sheathed cable)
Canadian Electrical Code1
NMD90 cables are available as two- or three-conductor cables with a bare grounding conductor. It is
manufactured using annealed (soft) copper conductors-compressed standing for stranded conductors; a
heat-resistant thermoplastic polyvinyl chloride (PVC) insulation and nylon jacket for the individual conductors
with a PVC jacket for the overall construction.
Conductors are white, black and red (for 3 conductor cables). Cable jackets are colour coded by size for quick
identification in the Table below
