1. PIRELLI EARTHSHIELD AND LSX A NEW APPROACH TO MECHANICALLY AND ELECTRICALLY PROTECTED CABLES

2. A small, lightweight, robust, easy to install cable system offering mechanical and electrical protection through an earth metallic covering A cost effective solution for many small power and lighting applications 300/500V grade (Earthshield) or 600/1000V grade (LSX) WHAT IS EARTHSHIELD AND LSX

3. LSX CABLE DESCRIPTION

4. LSX - KEY FEATURES Ease of installation Lightweight – Typically 60% reduction on equivalent armoured cable or 30% on equivalent MICC cable Small diameter – Typically 30% reduction on equivalent armoured cable Improved current ratings – 90ºC insulation system Earthing – Full size CPC automatically earths metallic screen

5. LSX – Ease of installation Dressable construction offers a combination of rigidity and ease of bending, ideal for surface mounting or tray installation Easy to strip and terminate without special tools Easy to gland with metal or IP68 plastic glands (indoor or outdoor) Suitable for indoor and outdoor installation (with suitable sheath colour) Installed cost savings compared with armoured or MICC types

6. LSX – Exceptional fire performance Low smoke emission BS EN 50268 (BS7622) Low acid gas emission BS EN 50267-2-1 (less than 0.5%) (BS6425-1) Low acidity of emissionsBS EN 50267-2-3 (BS6425-2) Flame retardant BS EN 50265-2-1 (BS4066-1) Reduced flame propagationBS EN 50266-2-4 (BS4066-3)

7. LSX – Electrical Protection Protection from accidental penetration by nails, screws and the like Means of compiance with clause 522-06-06 of BS7671/IEE Wiring regulations Independently tested by ERA Technology under nail penetration conditions Will be recognised as giving equivalent protection as armoured or concentric cable in AMD 2 to BS7671:2001 New standard BS8436

8. LSX - TYPICAL APPLICATION Small power Lighting – HPS, Tungsten and fluorescent

9. LSX - TYPICAL APPLICATION Fixed appliances – Fans, heaters, hand dryers EMC and clean power supply

10. LSX - TYPICAL APPLICATION Thin walls and partitions Building mounted lighting
