Detailed description

Kabel KU04 3x16AWG bez plašta je KU/KU-B kabel s ETFE izolacijom namijenjen za elektronsko ožičenje broda i zahtjevne okoliše. Upotrebljava pocinčanu bakrenu jezgru i ETFE izolaciju otpornu na niske i visoke temperature.

Konfiguracija: 3x16 AWG. Ekraniranje: neekranirano. Nazivni napon (proizvođač): 600 Vac / 850 Vdc. Radna temperatura: -55 °C do +150 °C. Vanjski promjer: 4,3 mm.

Na brodu koristite ove kabele za upravljačke veze, signale ili ožičenje kada su prioritetna toplinska otpornost, kompaktna izvedba i otpornost plašta. Odvojite veze slabog signala od snopova napajanja i zaštitite prolaze.

« KU04 3x16AWG cable: versatility for internal wiring »

The unjacketed KU04 3x16AWG cable is an essential internal wiring solution for marine electricians and system integrators. Its lack of an outer jacket makes it ideal for applications where conductors will be routed through conduits, cable trays, or watertight enclosures, or when the user wishes to apply their own protective sheath (heat-shrink, braided, etc.) for specific environmental or aesthetic requirements. This offers valuable flexibility for customized installations where standard cables do not meet diameter or protection type needs.

This type of cable is particularly suitable for power distribution to low to medium power devices (e.g., LED lighting, small sensors, switches, certain navigation instruments) or for signal links that are not sensitive to interference. The 16 AWG gauge is a robust standard for these uses. It is critical to note that the absence of a jacket makes this cable vulnerable to abrasion, direct moisture, and UV exposure if used unprotected. Therefore, it is not suitable for unprotected outdoor runs or areas subject to significant mechanical stress without additional protection.

Its role is that of a basic component, akin to hookup wire, but with the advantage of having three conductors already bundled together, simplifying cable pulling for three-wire circuits (e.g., power, return, and ground). Compared to a shielded, jacketed multicore cable, it is simpler and less expensive, but requires expertise in managing installation protection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Need help? Contact us

What does the designation '3x16AWG' mean for this cable?

The designation '3x16AWG' indicates the cable's composition. The '3x' means the cable contains three individual conductors. The '16AWG' (American Wire Gauge) specifies the gauge of each conductor. A 16 AWG gauge is suitable for applications requiring moderate currents, such as powering small electronic equipment or lighting aboard vessels.

What does 'non gaine' mean and what are the implications for its use in a marine environment?

The term 'non gaine' means this cable consists solely of its three individually insulated conductors, without a common outer protective sheath. This provides high flexibility for integration into tight spaces or for custom installations where additional external protection (such as heat-shrink tubing, conduit, or cable glands) will be added by the installer. It is not designed for direct exposure to the elements without supplementary protection.

For which specific marine applications is this cable best suited?

This cable is ideal for internal wiring in electrical panels, junction boxes, or inside conduits where conductors are already protected from the external environment. It is particularly suited for powering small electronic devices, low-intensity lighting systems, or control signals, where custom connections are needed and mechanical/environmental protection is provided by other means.

How should I protect this cable since it is unjacketed?

Being unshielded, this cable requires external protection to ensure its durability and the safety of your installation. You can use heat-shrink tubing, flexible or rigid protective conduits, cable glands, or integrate it into waterproof junction boxes. The goal is to protect it against abrasion, moisture, chemicals, and mechanical stress, depending on the specific environment of its installation.

Can this cable be used for an NMEA 2000 network?

No, this cable is not designed for NMEA 2000 networks. NMEA 2000 cables are specific multi-conductor shielded cables with particular impedance and shielding required for data transmission on this type of network. The KU04 3x16AWG unshielded cable is a raw solution for general electrical wiring, not for specific data networks like NMEA 2000.

What is the recommended maximum current capacity for a 16 AWG cable in a marine environment?

For a 16 AWG cable in a marine environment, the recommended maximum current capacity is typically around 10 to 15 amperes. This value may vary slightly depending on factors such as ambient temperature, the number of bundled conductors, and cable length. It is always advisable to consult ABYC (American Boat and Yacht Council) standards or the specific recommendations of the equipment manufacturer for which the cable is used, to ensure a safe and compliant installation.
