1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Purpose
The purpose of this engineering specification is to provide designers and vendors
with the minimum technical requirements for the purchase, design, construction,
testing, and shipping of insulated copper cable for use in industrial installations
owned by PDVSA.
Since PDVSA has decided to adopt the PIP (Process Industry Practices)
documents: ELSWC05: “300 Volt Instrumentation Tray Cable” and
ELSWC05D: “Data Sheet for 300 Volt Instrumentation Tray Cable”, as an
integral part of the Engineering Design Manual (MID), the requirements in this
document are additions or modifications to the ELSWC05 and the
section/paragraph numbers and the associated headings used in this document
correspond to the ones used in ELSWC05.
