Low-voltage power cables designed for fixed electrical installations in industrial, commercial, and infrastructure applications, compliant with IEC 60502-1 standards
Aluminum conductors (Class 1 or 2 stranded per IEC 60228), offering cost efficiency and lightweight performance compared to copper
PVC insulation (Type TI1 or TI2) providing electrical protection, heat resistance (up to 70°C continuous operation), and durability against moisture and abrasion
Unarmoured construction (no metallic armor) for flexibility and simplified installation
Multi-core configuration (2-5 cores) with color-coded cores for phase identification (e.g., red, yellow, blue, black, green/yellow)
PVC outer sheath (ST1 or ST2 type) for mechanical protection, UV resistance, and suitability in diverse environments
Power distribution in industrial plants, commercial buildings, and renewable energy systems
Fixed installations in dry or damp environments, including cable trays, conduits, ducts, or indoor/outdoor settings (avoid direct burial or areas with high mechanical stress)
Industrial machinery connections, HVAC systems, and substations
Temporary power supply for construction sites or events (requires external mechanical protection)
Primary Standard: IEC 60502-1 (Extruded insulation cables for rated voltages up to 30 kV)
Conductors: IEC 60228 (Specifications for conductors of insulated cables)
Insulation/Sheath Testing: IEC 60811 (Tests for insulating and sheathing materials)
Regional Compliance:
UK: BS 6346, BS 5467
EU: EN 50525 series
Fire Safety: IEC 60332 (flame retardancy tests)
Conductor:
Stranded aluminum (Class 1/2 per IEC 60228), cross-sectional area ranging from 1.5 mm² to 630 mm²
Insulation:
PVC compound, color-coded per IEC 60502-1 or BS 5467 for phase identification
Thickness compliant with voltage rating (0.6/1 kV)
Core Assembly:
Multiple insulated cores twisted together with non-hygroscopic fillers (e.g., PP) to maintain circular shape
Inner Sheath (Optional):
PVC bedding layer for core consolidation (omitted in unarmoured designs)
Outer Sheath:
PVC (ST1 or ST2) extruded over cores, offering resistance to abrasion, chemicals, and UV exposure
Standard sheath colors: Black, grey, or custom options
No Armor:
Simplified design reduces weight and cost; external protection required in high-risk environments
