The LAPP 4160305 Single Core Wiring Cable is designed for electricians and technicians working with control cabinet wiring, switchboards, and distribution panels in environments requiring enhanced fire safety. Its key benefit is its multi-standard compliance and oil-resistant construction, ensuring reliability and safety. A caveat is that its specific insulation is PVC-based, which, while offering good properties, is not halogen-free in all applications it might be used for.

'Multi-Standard' indicates that this cable meets the requirements of multiple certification bodies and standards, such as UL (Underwriters Laboratories), CSA (Canadian Standards Association), and HAR (European Harmonization). This allows for broader use across different international markets and applications.
No, this cable is designed for use in dry rooms and internal wiring applications. It is not rated for outdoor exposure or wet conditions.
The oil-resistant property means the cable's insulation can withstand contact with oils and lubricants commonly found in industrial machinery and environments without degrading or losing its insulating properties, ensuring a longer lifespan and reliable performance.
This cable is primarily intended for control cabinet wiring, switchboard, and distribution panel applications. While it has specific voltage ratings, its suitability for direct mains power wiring depends on local electrical codes and the specific application's power requirements and safety regulations.
The conductor is made of fine wire tinned copper strands, offering good conductivity and resistance to corrosion.
The cable has halogen-free properties which, in the event of a fire, means it emits less toxic and corrosive smoke compared to traditional PVC cables. This improves safety for people and reduces damage to equipment.
The test voltage for this cable is 2500 V.
Check conductor connections at both ends for secure crimping or tightening. Ensure the cable is not kinked or subjected to excessive bending radius.
Verify that the correct size terminal is used for the 1 mm² conductor. Ensure the terminal is properly crimped or secured. Check if the current load exceeds the cable's capacity.
Use appropriate tools for stripping insulation. Avoid sharp tools that can nick the conductor. Ensure smooth pulling during installation to prevent abrasion.
Setup: This single-core cable is designed for fixed installation within control cabinets, switchboards, and distribution panels. Ensure proper stripping of the insulation to expose the conductor without damage. Use appropriate termination methods, such as crimp terminals or screw connections, compatible with the 1 mm² core size.
Compatibility: The LAPP 4160305 is compatible with a wide range of electrical components designed for 1 mm² wiring. Its multi-standard certifications (UL MTW, CSA TEW, HAR) ensure compatibility with systems designed to meet these specific regulations. It is intended for use in dry rooms.
Care: To maintain performance, keep the cable in dry environments and avoid exposure to excessive heat, chemicals, or mechanical stress beyond its rated specifications. Regularly inspect terminations for tightness. Cleaning should be done with a dry or slightly damp cloth, avoiding abrasive materials or solvents that could damage the PVC insulation.
