Product Overview

0.6/1kV XLPE Insulated Steel Wire Armoured (SWA) PVC Sheathed Power Cable

Technical Standards

  • Compliance: IEC 60502-1, IEC 60332, BS 5467

  • Rated Voltage: 0.6/1kV

  • Temperature Rating: 90°C continuous operation

Construction & Materials

Component Specification
Conductor Plain/metal-coated annealed copper (IEC 60228 Class 1/2/5) or aluminum
Insulation XLPE, thickness per IEC 60502/BS 5467
Color Code 2-core: Brown/Blue; 3-core: Brown/Black/Grey; 4-core+: Black + white numerals
Inner Bedding Extruded/lapped filler, halogen-free options available
Armour Galvanized Steel Wire (GSWA) per IEC 60502-1 (Aluminum/steel tape optional)
Outer Sheath PVC Type ST1/ST2 (Standard). Options: PE (ST3/ST7), Halogen-Free (ST8), CSPE

Key Features

  • Robust Protection: GSWA resists mechanical stress, rodents, and corrosion.

  • Multi-Environment Use: Rated for direct burial, cable ducts, indoor/outdoor, and industrial plants.

  • Fire Safety:

    • Standard: IEC 60332 flame-retardant PVC

    • Upgradeable to IEC 60332-3 Cat A/B/C or Halogen-Free (IEC 60754-1/2) for low smoke/zero toxin.

  • Customization: Conductor class, armor type, sheath material, and core colors on request.

Applications

  • Energy Distribution: Switchgear, transformer stations, and local power grids.

  • Industrial: Manufacturing plants, machinery wiring, and conveyor systems.

  • Infrastructure: Underground networks, tunnels, and exposed outdoor installations.

Engineering Selection Guide

  1. Conductor Sizing: Refer to IEC 60228 ampacity tables (40°C ambient).

  2. Armour Selection:

    • GSWA: General mechanical protection

    • Aluminum Tape: Highly corrosive environments

  3. Sheath Criticality:

    • PVC: Cost-efficient general use

    • LSZH (Halogen-Free): Confined/public spaces (subways, airports)

  4. Fire Certifications: Specify IEC 60332-3-24 (Cat C) or IEC 60754 for high-safety zones.

Certifications:
• CE Marked • ISO 9001 Certified

Ordering Note:
Custom configurations (cores, fire ratings, materials) supported. Request datasheets for project-specific specs.
