Cable Gland Type C

(Single Compression for Armoured Cables) EN 50262 : BS6121 : IP66

“C” type single compression glands are suitable for cables that exhibit “cold flow” characteristics, whilst providing an IP66 environmental seal on the cable outer sheath and a detachable armour specific clamping system for wire (W), braid (X) or tape (Z) armoured cables. The “IE” version allows the gland to be used with HV cables where the fault load is greater than 10.4kA and options are available for use with LSOH cables and extreme temperature applications.

Plating: Nickel or Zinc

Aluminium versions comply with UK Highways Agency Specifications
Brass versions to UK Highway Agency Specification available upon request

Cable glands are EMC neutral according to the standards, therefore no documentation exists. In order to maintain an EMC shield you need to ensure the cable shield has 360 degree contact with the gland. This is the case with the "X" gland and the clamping ring.

11 Electromagnetic compatibility
Products covered by this standard are, in normal use, considered to be passive in respect of electromagnetic influences (emission and immunity).

Notes:
* Gland size does not necessarily equate to the entry thread size. Gland size 16 is also available with an M16 x 1.5 entry thread.
* Dimensions (A) & (B) may differ for glands with non metric entry threads. Please refer to our “Thread Reference Tables” for specific dimensions.
* Where glands are fitted into non-metallic enclosures they must be included within the earth circuit of the system.
* Assembly instructions must be read prior to installation and adhered to in full.
* Peppers supplies cable glands with parallel entry threads that conform to the flameproof threaded joint requirements of IEC/EN 60079-1 and other equivalent standards. They usually incorporate a thread run out according to the available machining techniques and will not have a full form thread for the entire length. Peppers will not be held responsible for clients’ installations where this has not been taken into account.
* To maintain the specified IP rating, clearance holes must be in accordance with EN 50262 Table 1 and the entry device should be suitably secured.
* All gland kits supplied with silicone seals will include a PTFE IP washer in order to maintain the temperature range.
