BENDING RADIUS:
While Installing 'GLOSTER' Cables, the following minimum bending radius should be observed such that
the cables, and especially the insulation, are not damaged. Wherever possible, larger bending radii should be used.
VOLTAGE GRADE OF CABLES RECOMMENDED MINIMUM BENDING RADII
Upto 1.1KV (12 X D) For Multi Core Cables

Upto 1.1KV (15 X D) For Single Core Cables
3.3 KV upto 11KV (15 X D) For Single and Multi Core Cables
