Universal Cable launches the new EmPowr CL Edge medium voltage cable

"The new medium-voltage cable brings more value to our customers and is the best cable innovation for the renewable energy market
.
" Joshua Katzman, vice president of strategic marketing for North America at General Cable, said, "The 20 percent increase in reel length, 10 percent reduction in diameter and weight at the EmPowr CL Edge, and the sheath integrity testing in the field make this new cable easier to use, faster to install, and more reliable overall
.
”

EmPowr CL Edge is the first medium-voltage cable for renewable energy that combines four of the most effective features in the cable industry for greater efficiency, protection and reliability:

1.
Compact phase conductor and flat band neutral conductor

2.
Two non-hygroscopic sheath peeling ropes

3.
Cross-linked polyethylene sheath

4.
All black semi-conductive polyethylene coating

The EmPowr CL Edge is also UL listed MV-105 product, meaning its reliability allows users to operate the cable
at higher temperatures.

"We listen to our customers and design EmPowr CL Edge to provide solutions
to their problems.
" Michael Noyes, vice president and general manager of General Cable's North American utilities, said, "They asked for a simpler and faster way to install the cables and a more consistent approach to testing the integrity
of the sheath.
We delivered two sheath stripping cords to expedite the removal of the outer sheath while adding a semi-conductive polyethylene coating to make it easier and more reliable to test sheath integrity
before and after cable installation.
