  • Power Cable

    Power Cable

    Power cables are mainly used for power transmission and distribution purpose. It is an assembly of one or more individually insulated electrical conductors, usually held together with an overall sheath. The assembly is used for transmission and distribution of electrical power. Electrical power cables may be installed as permanent wiring within buildings, buried in the ground and run overhead or exposed.……Including: rubber cable, welding cable, URD cable, XLPE insulated power calbe etc.

  • Bare Overhead Conductor

    Bare Overhead Conductor

    Bare Overhead Conductors are used in overhead transmission and distribution network applications.They are also used for un-insulated hook ups, jumpers, grounding conductors and other applications. Our Conductors conform to ASTM, IEC, BS, BS EN and DIN standards.…… Including: AAC conductor, AAAC conductor, ACSR conductor, ACAR conductor, AACSR conductor, etc.

  • Aerial Bundled Cable

    Aerial Bundled Cable

    Aerial bundled cables (also aerial bundled conductors or simply ABC) are overhead power lines using several insulated phase conductors bundled tightly together, usually with a bare neutral conductor. Our abc calbe conform to ASTM, IEC, SANS standards.……Including: abc cables, cvered line wire, service drop wire etc.

    • Power Cable current carrying capacity

    The carrying capacity of the wire & cable is related to the conductor cross section, the wire material, the model, the laying method and the environment temperature. The carrying capacity of a variety of wires is usually obtained from the manual.
     
    Cable is used to transport electrical energy, and the calculation of the power:
    KW=1.732*U*I*COSφ
    Formula: kW– electric power, unit kW
    U– voltage, unit kV
    I– current, unit A
    COSφ — system natural power factor
     
    To transport power, the line will have current flow, the greater the current through the line, the more power transmission. Carrying capacity refers to the current amount of transmission line conductor. Specific specifications of each wire allowing the maximum load flow, the state regulations have provisions.
