4 Core Copper Conductor XLPE Insulated Low Voltage Power Cable

Key Components and Materials

• Conductor: Made of high-quality copper, which offers excellent electrical conductivity and low resistance. This ensures efficient power transmission with minimal energy losses. Copper conductors are also known for their durability and reliability.
• Insulation: Uses cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation. XLPE has several outstanding properties, including high dielectric strength, which provides good insulation against electrical leakage and breakdown. It also has excellent heat resistance, allowing the cable to operate in a wide range of temperatures without significant degradation of its insulating properties. Additionally, XLPE is resistant to moisture, chemicals, and mechanical stress, ensuring long service life and reliable performance in various environments.

Features and Advantages

• Low Voltage Operation: Specifically designed for low voltage power applications, typically suitable for distribution and connection within buildings, industrial facilities, and other low voltage electrical systems.
• Four-Core Configuration: The four-core design allows for the simultaneous transmission of multiple electrical circuits or phases, making it versatile for a variety of electrical installations and requirements. This configuration is commonly used in many power distribution setups to provide balanced power supply and flexibility in wiring.
• Enhanced Electrical Performance: The combination of copper conductors and XLPE insulation results in low electrical impedance and minimal voltage drop, ensuring that the power delivered to the connected devices or loads is stable and meets the required specifications. This helps to optimize the performance of electrical equipment and systems.
• Durability and Reliability: The high-quality materials and construction of the cable provide long-term durability and resistance to environmental factors such as temperature variations, humidity, and mechanical stress. This makes it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations, where it can withstand the rigors of daily use and maintain its performance over an extended period.
• Fire Resistance: Depending on the specific formulation of the XLPE insulation, some versions of this cable may offer certain levels of fire resistance. This can be an important safety feature, reducing the risk of fire spread and minimizing damage in the event of a fire incident within the electrical installation.
• Easy Installation: The cable is designed to be relatively flexible and easy to handle during installation. It can be routed through conduits, trays, or directly buried in the ground (subject to appropriate installation guidelines and regulations), facilitating quick and efficient installation in various electrical projects.

Technical Specifications

• Voltage Rating: The cable is rated for a specific low voltage range, such as 0.6/1 kV or other relevant low voltage standards, depending on the intended application.
• Conductor Size: Available in various conductor cross-sectional areas, typically measured in square millimeters (mm²), such as 1.5 mm², 2.5 mm², 4 mm², 6 mm², 10 mm², etc., to meet different current-carrying requirements. The choice of conductor size depends on the anticipated load current and the length of the cable run.
• Insulation Thickness: The XLPE insulation has a specific thickness that is determined based on the voltage rating and the required insulation level to ensure proper electrical insulation and safety.
• Cable Diameter: The overall diameter of the cable varies depending on the conductor size and the thickness of the insulation and any additional protective layers.
• Maximum Operating Temperature: The cable can operate continuously at a maximum temperature specified by the manufacturer, usually within the range of 70°C to 90°C, depending on the type of XLPE insulation used. This temperature rating indicates the upper limit of temperature that the cable can withstand without compromising its performance and lifespan.
• Bending Radius: The cable has a minimum bending radius that must be adhered to during installation to prevent damage to the conductors and insulation. A smaller bending radius may cause stress on the cable, leading to reduced insulation integrity and potential electrical failures. The bending radius is typically specified by the manufacturer and is related to the cable's diameter and construction.

Applications

• Building Wiring: Used for power distribution in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings, including lighting circuits, power outlets, and small to medium-sized electrical equipment connections.
• Industrial Facilities: Ideal for powering various machines, motors, control panels, and other electrical loads within industrial plants, factories, and manufacturing facilities.
• Infrastructure Projects: Can be employed in infrastructure developments such as roads, bridges, tunnels, and public utilities, where low voltage power is required for lighting, signaling systems, and other electrical installations.
• Renewable Energy Systems: May be used in renewable energy generation and distribution systems, such as solar photovoltaic installations and small wind turbines, to connect the generated power to the electrical grid or storage systems.
• Electrical Equipment Hookup: Serves as a connection cable for a wide range of electrical equipment, including pumps, fans, compressors, and other industrial and commercial appliances that operate on low voltage power.
