BS5467 armoured power cable 1900/3300V is used for fixed power distribution.
It is suitable for industrial plants, infrastructure projects, commercial buildings and utility installations.
It can also be used for outdoor installations, cable ducts and direct burial applications.
The cable is designed for installations requiring PVC sheath and mechanical armour protection.
For single core AC systems, aluminium wire armour is commonly used to reduce magnetic losses.
For multi-core cables, galvanized steel wire armour provides mechanical protection.
