RS 485 Communication cable for Substatio nYard
(OP)
Can anyone please tell me what cable you use for any RS485 communication cable for outside use in a substation? I use to use Belden 9742 but it is not rated for moisture outside etc. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Thanks

Okonite Type P-OS is one options. It comes in either 300 V or 600 V.

I think utilities prefer to run fiber inside substations these days for the inherent safety and noise immunity benefits over a copper connection. Having said that, we have used RS-485 fairly successfully in substations when fiber ports were not available.
