This series of flame-retardant and fire-resistant cables is specifically designed for harsh environments, making it suitable for critical locations such as power plants, metro systems, airports, petrochemical plants, hotels, hospitals, and high-rise buildings. The product strictly complies with the international standard IEC 60502-1 and has passed the IEC 60332-1 vertical flame test, ensuring effective flame resistance in the event of a fire. With a rated voltage of 600/1000V, it meets various power transmission requirements.
600/1000V XLPE insulated PVC sheathed armoured cable is designed for fixed low voltage power distribution.
It is suitable for industrial plants, power stations, commercial buildings, infrastructure projects, substations and general electrical installations.
The XLPE insulation provides reliable electrical performance and thermal stability for low voltage power circuits.
The metallic armour provides mechanical protection, making the cable suitable for demanding installation environments.
The PVC outer sheath provides general protection against moisture, abrasion and normal installation conditions.
Typical applications include underground cable routes, cable trenches, cable ducts, outdoor installation, plant rooms and protected power distribution systems.
The cable should be selected according to voltage rating, number of cores, conductor size, armour type, installation method and project specification.
