In-Wall Cable GigaWatt LC-Y MK3+ 3X4

LC-Y MK3+ 3X4 is a shielded GigaWatt installation cable, designed to power audio and video systems susceptible to interference. This technical cable, a proprietary design of the company, improves the efficiency of any one-phase power grid with a voltage between 110-240V, allowing to maximize the potential of any system.

In the improved construction of the cable we used a new conductor with high conductance and a new isolator. Lossless flow of energy is made possible by the wires of the cable made up from three solid core conductors with 4mm2 cross-section each. Those are made from 99,997% pure copper (OFHC C10100), additionally subdued to an annealing process, which allows them to gain uniform structure and better conductance.

The isolation of the conductors is made from elastic polyethylene with lowered dielectric constant. The twisted wires of the cable are protected by a static shield, made from aluminum-polyester foil with an internal, tin covered copper flow wire. The tight construction of the static shield covers 100% of the surface of the cable, perfectly protecting against all kinds of EMI and RFI external interference. In addition the shield prevents the appearance and spread of internal interferences. The conductors, together with the shield, are covered with an additional, plastic material, isolating from external vibration. The whole cable is covered with a very flexible, but very durable protective sheath made from soft PVC.

The montage of the LC-Y MK3+ 3×4 cable is recommended to be used in power grids supplying amongst others listening rooms, recording studios, cinema rooms, etc. It fulfills the LDV73/23/EEC and 93/68/EEC directives, so it can be also used in places especially exposed to electromagnetic radiation, like airports, hospitals, computer posts or using sensitive measurement equipment. Home installations made using this cable are the perfect solution for people sensitive to electromagnetic radiation.

The LC-Y MK3+ 3×4 is designed to be used in concealed and surface mount installations in dry and wet rooms as well as directly on concrete. The cable is also approved for usage in external installations, under the condition it will not be exposed to direct sunlight or if it will be placed inside cable channels.

NOTE: The installation works expose to direct contact with high voltage, hazardous to life. There is risk of electrocution! Activities related to montage of electrical installation should be done by qualified personnel only. Appropriate laws and rules should be followed (DIN VDE 0100 and IEC 664 or DIN VDE 0110)
