Characteristics
Suitable for indoor wiring,
particularly for wiring in the
cubicle. Use this type of cable
in a place to which little or no
force is applied.
The tension member at the
center improves mechanical
characteristics. The LAP
sheath also improves resistance
to water and heat. As a result,
this type of cable is suitable for
outdoor wiring.
