High Tension Power Cable 1 Core
Application
High voltage power transmission cable with aluminium or copper conductor, suitable for industrial plants, utility networks, and power distribution systems. Ideal for fixed installations in ground, ducts, or air, where mechanical protection is provided by non-magnetic aluminium armouring and high thermal stability is ensured by XLPE insulation. Supports voltage grades from 3.3 kV to 33 kV for earthed and unearthed systems.
