Application
Signalling cables play an essential role in ensuring the smooth running and reliability of the railway network, hence their unique specifications and design. They ensure the transmission of signals and a continuous power supply across all trackside signalling equipment applications. These cables are used for control and signal conveyance and keep the rail networks, with their passengers and cargo, moving safely.
We offers a comprehensive range of Network Rail-approved signalling cables, with NR/PS/SIG/00005 specific applications designated by Type, and available in single, twin and multi-core varieties. Cables to this specification have an insulation which is either an elastomer or Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) type with tinned copper conductors. They have a voltage rating of 650/1100V and an operating temperature range of -25oC to +85oC.

Signalling Type A1, A2, A3 & A4 Signalling type A cables are light-duty flame-retardant and either insulated or insulated and sheathed
in an LSZH compound. They have a Class 2 stranded tinned conductor. They are generally for internal use,
with the smooth sheath being suitable for free wiring installation in ducting including relay rooms, signal
boxes, REBs, and location cases.
Signalling Type B1 & B2 The signalling type B cable range is a heavy-duty Ethylene Propylene Rubber (EPR) insulated and heavy-duty
Polychloroprene (HDPCP) sheathed cable with Class 2 stranded tinned conductor. This cable protects against
mechanical impact, oils and greases, and other abrasions that are a normal part of railway usage. This signalling
cable is used between equipment boxes, signal boxes, relay rooms and location cases.
Signalling Type C1, C2 & C3 Signalling type C cables are heavy-duty and suitable for tails. They have a Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET)
Separator tape and a Class 5 flexible tinned conductor. The C3 type is for TPWS applications and has Drain Wire
and Aluminium Tape (Al) screening.
Signalling Type D1 & D2 cable The type D signalling cable range has a Class 2 stranded tinned conductor, an LSZH sheath and a PET Separator tape.
Signalling type D are used for Type B1/B2 applications in tunnels and underground. With additional fire performance.
Signalling Type E1, E2 & E3 Cable This type E cable is a Class 5 stranded tinned conductor with a Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) sheath. The E3 type
has Drain Wire and Aluminium Tape (Al) screening. For Type C1/C2/C3 applications when used in tunnels and underground.
With additional fire performance.
