WHAT IS IT

Modified 04/01/99

The IMPCABLE was designed to be run in switchgear where codes require a 600V insulation rating. Typical "blue hose" cables are rated at 300V. The IMPCABLE is an 18 AWG cable with a 100 ohm impedance at 100 kHz tuned to work optimally with the Frequency Shift Key (FSK) signal from Cutler-Hammer devices.
