Borealis LE0563 Polyethylene Compound, Thermoplastic, Semiconductive
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyethylene (PE)
Material Notes:	LE0563 is a thermoplastic semi conductive compound specifically designed for medium- and high voltage cable systems requiring improved grounding. It may be used either as a complete jacket or as a thin layer extruded on top of the jacket. This compounds permits easy diagnostic testing of the cable to ensure jacket conformity, allowing confirmation of fault-free cable before and after installation. It provides superior environmental stress crack resistance and good electrical conductivity. Due to the semi conductive properties, it will also provide added protection against lightning strikes. Specifications: BS 6622; IEC 60502; and IEC 60840. Information provided by Borealis AG
