Alpha Wire Xtra-Guard 2 Performance Cable Control Cable, 2 Cores, 1.23 mm² 16 AWG, Unscreened, 30 m, Black Polyvinyl

This control cable is designed for industrial signal and control circuits in automation and electrical installations. It comprises two conductors with tinned copper strands and a black PVC outer sheath, providing a flexible connection for equipment operating within a wide temperature range. The cable is unscreened and rated for 300V use, making it suitable for general-purpose control wiring where a flame-retardant construction is required.

• 19-strand tinned copper offers enhanced flexibility for routing
• Flame-retardant jacket reduces fire propagation risk in installations
• Rated 300V to support common control-voltage systems
• Operating range -30°C to 90°C enables varied environmental use
• Unscreened design simplifies connections for non‑noisy circuits
• PVC outer sheath provides chemical and abrasion resistance

• Suitable for factory automation control panels and wiring
• Ideal for motor starter and relay interconnections
• Used for sensor and actuator cabling in machinery
• Can be used for general-purpose control runs in plant wiring
• Used with Terminal blocks and cable assemblies for equipment racks

Each conductor contains 19 tinned copper strands, which reduces stiffness and aids installation around bends.

Maintain a minimum bend radius of 10x the cable diameter to prevent conductor stress.

The jacket is printed with manufacturer identification, part details and sequence footage marking for traceability.

Maximum permissible pull tension is 41 lb during installation to avoid damage.

The cable conforms to recognised AWM styles and meets fire test and low‑voltage directives applicable to control wiring.
