Including Update No. 1, this standard provides requirements relevant to cables and cable glands intended for hazardous locations.
These certifications reflect GERITEL WIRE's commitment to meeting recognized Canadian electrical cable standards through defined product constructions, testing requirements and manufacturing quality controls.
3. Beyond Conventional Armoured Cables: Certified HL Cable Solutions for Hazardous Locations
One of the most significant achievements of this certification is the inclusion of three hazardous-location cable families:
AC90-HL | ACWU90-HL | TECK90-HL
Hazardous industrial environments can impose demanding requirements on electrical cables due to the possible presence of flammable gases, vapours, combustible dust or other hazardous substances.
Such environments may be encountered in:
1.Oil and gas production and processing facilities.
2.Petrochemical and chemical manufacturing plants.
3.Refineries and industrial processing facilities.
4.Mining and mineral processing operations.
5.Industrial manufacturing and material-handling facilities.
6.Other installations with appropriately classified hazardous areas.
7.Cables for these applications require careful selection based on applicable electrical codes, hazardous-area classifications and installation requirements.
With our HL cable families certified under CSA Class 5818 01, GERITEL WIRE can now offer additional CSA-certified armoured cable options for projects requiring hazardous-location cable certification.
This development expands our capabilities beyond conventional building and industrial wiring, strengthening our ability to support projects where safety, compliance and dependable electrical performance are essential.
