Higher current carrying capacity (Higher permissible continuous conductor temperature upto 90°C )
Higher short circuit rating (XLPE can withstand short circuit temperature upto 250°C)
Higher Temperature to withstand emergency overload (upto 130°C )
Extremely low dielectric losses (very important for HV cables)
Are light in weight and much easier jointing & termination with smaller bending radius
Low Voltage Cables come in a variety of sizes, materials, and types, each particularly adapted to its uses. Cables consist of three major components: conductors, insulation, and protective outer sheath. The makeup of individual cables varies according to application.
Working voltage, determining the thickness of the insulation
Environmental conditions such as temperature, water, chemical or sunlight exposure, and mechanical impact, determining the form and composition of the outer sheath of cable.
Current-carrying capacity, determining the cross-sectional size of the conductor(s)
