0.6/1kV Green LSZH Power Cable - Halogen-Free CU/XLPE Fixed Installation Cable (IEC 60502-1, BS 5467)
Product Overview
The XGB Green LSZH Power Cable is engineered for safe, reliable 0.6/1kV low-voltage electrical distribution in domestic, commercial, and industrial fixed installations. Featuring halogen-free LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) sheathing and XLPE insulation, it prioritizes fire safety, environmental resilience, and compliance with international standards (IEC 60502-1, BS 5467). Ideal for indoor/outdoor use and protected underground applications.
Construction & Materials

Applications
Designed for fixed electrical installations in:
-
Industrial Plants: Machinery wiring, control panels, motor circuits.
-
Commercial Buildings: Lighting, HVAC systems, sub-distribution boards.
-
Residential Complexes: In-wall wiring, underground supply to buildings.
-
Infrastructure: Tunnels, metro stations, hospitals (critical for fire safety).
-
Outdoor/Underground Use:
-
Direct burial (in well-draining conduits).
-
Exposed installations (UV/weather-resistant sheath).
-
Engineering Selection Guide
-
Safety-Critical Sites: Mandatory in confined/public spaces (hospitals, schools) due to LSZH’s low toxicity/smoke emission during fire.
-
Corrosive Environments: Resists oils, chemicals, and moisture; suitable for industrial zones.
-
Underground Installation: Use protective conduits in waterlogged soils; LSZH resists hydrolysis.
-
Thermal Management: XLPE supports higher current ratings vs. PVC; verify derating for ambient > 40°C.
-
Conductor Class:
-
Class 1 (Solid): Cost-effective for static runs.
-
Class 2 (Stranded): Flexibility for complex routing.
-
Compliance & Certifications

International Standards: IEC 60502-1, BS 5467.
-
Fire Safety: Passes IEC 61034 (smoke density) & IEC 60754-1/2 (halogen acid gas).
-
Environmental: RoHS-compliant, lead/Cd-free.
