Medium Voltage XLPE Insulated Steel Wire Armored Cable with Lead Cover to IEC 60502-2

Applications

Medium voltage XLPE insulated lead sheathed

steel wire armoured cable is designed

for medium voltage power distribution systems.

It is suitable for substations,

power supply stations, industrial plants,

switchboards and utility networks.

The XLPE insulation provides reliable

electrical performance and thermal stability.

The lead sheath provides additional protection

against moisture, chemicals

and hydrocarbons.

The steel wire armour provides improved

mechanical protection.

It is suitable for cable ducts,

cable trenches, underground routes,

cable trays and protected outdoor installation.

This cable is commonly selected for

demanding industrial and utility projects.

The cable should be selected according to

voltage rating, conductor size,

screening structure, lead sheath requirement,

armour type, installation method

and project specification.
