PPC™ (Parallel Power Cable™) Multi-strand Flat Power Cable Bends in a Tight Radius, Fits in Narrow Areas


Parallel Power Cable (PPC)
is a flexible, low-inductance cable designed for power istribution and grounding applications. PPC's unique construction offers significantly lower inductance than equivalent round cable. Tin-plated wires are extruded in parallel allowing more current per Circular Mil Area (CMA) than round cable. PPC's innovative design makes it lighter than conventional power cable and, in many applications, the flat construction is easier to route and can improve system airflow.

Construction:

• Lower Inductance than Round Cable

• Highly Flexible

• Durable TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer) Jacket

• High Abrasion Resistant

• Tinned Copper Wires

• UL and CSA Rated to 600 Volts, 105oC

• UL VW-1, CSA FT1

• Jacket Oxygen Index is 30%

• UL Style 21078

• Available in Black or Red

Inductance Comparison - Round Cable vs PPC

Round cable has about 1/2 the inductance per foot than equivalent ampacity-rated. Lower inductance means faster power supply response to quick current changes. More importantly, the high frequency current present in most DC current-carrying cables results in radiated noise, which is undesirable. PPC minimizes this unwanted radiated noise.
