18 AWG Individually and Overall Shielded XLPE/PVC 600V Instrumentation Type TC-ER Cable for Industrial Instrument Signal Transmission

This industrial signal tray cable is the standard 18 AWG Individually and Overall Shielded XLPE/PVC 600V Instrumentation Type TC-ER cable, also known as the full-spec 18 AWG Individually and Overall Shielded 600V XLPE/PVC instrumentation cable, designed with dual individual-and-overall foil shielding to outperform basic single-shielded 18 AWG Overall Shielded XLP/PVC instrumentation cable. Built with Class B fully annealed bare copper conductors, durable XLPE insulation and black PVC outer jacket, it is rated 600V & 90°C for both wet and dry locations, fully compliant with UL 1277 and UL 1685 TC-ER tray cable standards. It supports exposed run, cable tray, conduit and direct burial installation, ideal for precision control systems, alarm circuits, audio intercom and energy management wiring.

FAQ

What is the full official name of this dual-shield instrumentation tray cable?

Its full formal designation is 18 AWG Individually and Overall Shielded XLPE/PVC 600V Instrumentation Type TC-ER cable, and it is also widely referred to as 18 AWG Individually and Overall Shielded 600V XLPE/PVC instrumentation cable in industrial wiring catalogs.

What's the core difference between this dual-shield cable and single shield wiring?

Unlike basic 18 AWG Overall Shielded XLP/PVC instrumentation cable that only has one overall foil shield, this model adds individual foil shielding for every signal pair, drastically reducing crosstalk and delivering ultra-stable low-noise signal transmission for sensitive instrumentation equipment.

What installation environments and certifications does this cable meet?

This 600V TC-ER cable is permitted for exposed run, cable trays, ducts, conduit and direct burial, approved for Class I Div.2 hazardous industrial locations, complying with UL, ICEA, RoHS and REACH compliance standards, with sunlight resistance and -25°C cold bend performance.

What conductor and shielding structure does this 18AWG dual-shield cable adopt?

It uses Class B bare copper stranded conductors, XLPE insulation, paired aluminum polyester foil individual & overall shields with 20AWG tinned copper drain wire, and a weather-resistant PVC outer jacket.
