Fire-safe, “mud-resistant” LV and MV cables are used for control and instrumentation at wellheads and manifolds/gathering systems.
IEEE 45 Type P versions exist for explosion-risk environments.
Light-blue sheathed Intrinsically Safe (IS) cables are available for installing separate power circuits to ensure the safety of electrical equipment where flammable materials are present. The PVC outer jacket is resistant to oil and gas, as well as being flame-resistant.
