AS/NZS 2276.3:2002 (R2017) titled "Cables for Traffic Signal Installations: Loop Cables for Vehicle Detectors" is a standard that specifies the requirements for single-core cables used for constructing inductive vehicle-detector loops in traffic signal installations. These loops operate within the frequency range of 20 kHz to 200 kHz and are designed to be installed in slots that are cut into the road surface and subsequently sealed with a suitable sealant.

The cable specified in this standard is specifically intended for use in extra-low voltage (ELV) circuits. It is also suitable for installation alongside low voltage (LV) cables within unsegregated cable enclosures. The purpose of this standard is to provide guidelines and requirements for designing and constructing loop cables to ensure their proper functioning in traffic signal installations.

Appendix A of the standard provides purchasing guidelines, offering additional information and recommendations relevant to the procurement process of these loop cables.
