Fixed installation
Internal wiring of marine switchboards, starter panels, bridge consoles and ECR relay cabinets.
Product
Japanese marine 250 V single-core switchboard, console and control-panel hook-up wire built to JIS C 3410 in two insulation grades: `SCP` (+85/+90 °C cross-linked EP-rubber with chloroprene/protective skin) and `SYP` (+60/+75 °C flame-retardant vinyl PVC).
Typical values for this cable type, based on JIS C 3410 (250 V Marine Switchboard Wire) — confirmed in the datasheet and quotation for your order.
Application fit
SCP and SYP are the standard JIS C 3410 internal hook-up wires for marine main switchboards (MSB), emergency switchboards, engine-control-room (ECR) consoles and bridge navigation desks on vessels built or refitted to Japanese shipyard standards.
Internal wiring of marine switchboards, starter panels, bridge consoles and ECR relay cabinets.
Unscreened single-core panel wire; for inter-panel shipboard control runs, select MPY / MPYCY / MPYCYS.
Use MPYCYS ScreenedFixed internal switchboard wire; not intended for external deck or mobile duty.
Use MPYCY ArmouredFor North American UL/CSA switchboard wiring rated 600 V +125 °C, select UL AWM 3173 / SIS.
Use UL 3173 / SISConstruction
