Description
The cable is composed of a copper conductor and polyethylene insulation material, and is used for general electrical installations on various river and sea vessels, offshore oil platforms, and other marine structures. The dataset includes key primary and auxiliary materials, energy inputs, atmospheric emissions, and waste from the production process; infrastructure such as production equipment and factory construction is not included within the system boundary of the dataset. The life cycle inventory is compiled from data derived from multiple sources. The cable manufacturing process includes conductor stranding, conductor wrapping with polyester tape, compounding, insulation extrusion, lapping with non-woven reinforcing fabric for cable forming, sheath extrusion, inspection, and packaging.

Process Description
Cables are typically composed of several wires or groups of wires (each group containing at least two wires) twisted together, with each group insulated from the others, commonly helically twisted around a central core, and covered overall with a highly insulating sheath. The cable features flame-retardant and electrostatic shielding properties. This product is suitable for general electrical installations on various river and sea-going vessels, offshore oil platforms, and other marine structures.
