ELECTRONICS PRODUCT BULLETIN Armored Electronics Products General Cable now offers the capability to armor virtually any Carol® Brand Electronics cable. This rugged exterior and protection allows for the installation of almost any Electronics cable in markets with the toughest and most rigorous building code requirements. Cables placed in armor are not only acceptable for use in Riser applications, but according to NEC Article 300.22(B), these cables are acceptable in Plenum applications as well. The process to convert a standard Carol Brand Electronics cable to an armored cable is simple and is explained on the back of this bulletin. All you really need to know is: 1) which cable you want to armor, 2) whether you want steel or aluminum interlock armor, and 3) what put-up lengths you would like to receive product on. General Cable continues to expand its Carol Brand Electronics product offering to allow our customers to participate in more diversified markets.
