The cable insulation contains an excessive amount of short chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) (measured value up to 0,562-0,580% by weight).Lead poses a risk to the environment and is harmful to human health, as it accumulates in the body, can cause developmental neurotoxicity and may affect breast-fed or unborn children.SCCPs persist in the environment, are toxic to aquatic organisms at low concentrations and bio-accumulate in wildlife and humans, posing a risk to human health and the environment.
