SVO Cables are UL listed multiconductor power cables that are used mostly for indoor use. Applications include household appliances and electronic equipment like food warming machines, lamps, clocks, fans, blowers, personal computers, monitors, and printers. SVO Coil Cords are also used for hand tools and other portable devices. After extending to full length to provide added reach, this cable retracts and self-coils for tangle-free storage.
SVO indicates and stands for:
- S – Service Cord (600V) with a voltage rating of 600 volts
- V- Vacuum cord, with a voltage rating of 300 volts, suitable for portable cleaning equipment.
- O – Oil resistant outer jacket, typically a rubber EPDM or CPE, but can be thermoset mixture as well.
The benefits of using rubber insulated/sheathed cables is the flexibility it provides and the better physical and mechanical properties and wear resistance. By adding the rubber compounding, it can meet the requirements of oil resistance, flame retardancy, cold resistance and heat resistance.
