New single compression gland also suited for armoured cable

Earlier we already presented our new cable glands.

The single compression gland EBU (equivalent to our old PA) is used as standard for unshielded cable. However, shielded cable is also allowed.

The latter is not just an empty claim, but is literally included in the certificate:

Cable glands are suitable for cable type where sealing and retention is required by gripping the outer sheath (including armoured/screened/braided cables when the armour/screen/braid is clamped inside the terminating equipment).

You may therefore connect a reinforced cable with a single compression cable gland on condition 

• that it is a fixed installation
• that the earthing is not interrupted (armouring to be earthed in the cabinet)
• and that an extra strain relief is provided (can be done both inside and outside the cabinet (= frame))
