Teck cable under -40C

I need run 3#12+GND Teck cale in an environment with -40c. are there any special requirement for this?
Thanks in advance.

RE: Teck cable under -40C

Care must be taken when installing thermoplastic conductors at low temperatures. Even a minus-40 rating does not guarantee that a cable may be handled at -40 without damage.
Once installed there is no further problems as long as vibration is avoided and there is no movement of the cable when it is cold. In cases where a flexible connection is required, Teck may be run to a junction box and a type of cable suitable for movement in cold environments used in the area where flexibility is required.
