XL-LSZH is cross-linked low smoke zero halogen ,

depend on your sector for example if the sector is marine;

IEEE 1580 LSX insulation
IEC 60092-360 HF 90 insulation

Both of them flame retardant compound

if you do not need flame retardant you can use XLPE

IEC 60502-1 XLPE
IEC 60092-360 XLPE

my opinion is to use HF 90 compound like this

CU/MGT/HF 90

i hope it helps you,

Hi,

If you are checking PH120 or PH 180 cable,I mean that FR time is 3 ours or 2 ours you can check VDE 0250.
