Characteristics:

Voltage Rating: Designed for 0.6/1 kV (1.2 kV) systems.

Insulation Material: XLPE (Cross-linked Polyethylene) provides superior insulation compared to other materials like PVC.

Conductor Temperature: Can handle continuous temperatures up to 90°C. It can also manage emergency and short-circuit limits of 130°C and 250°C.

Environmental Resistance: Offers excellent resistance to heat, stress, chemicals, and moisture.

Mechanical Properties: Good flexibility, resistance to abrasion, and bending.

Ease of Installation: Simpler to install and splice compared to other types of cables.

Construction: Available in single, two, three, four, and five-core options. You can choose solid or stranded conductors, and armor made of steel wire or tape.

Standards: Designed and manufactured according to standards like IEC 60502-1.

Construction:

Conductor:

Material: Copper or aluminum.
Shape: Can be circular solid, compacted, or sector-shaped stranded.
Class: Follows standards like IEC 60228 for conductors.

Insulation:

Material: XLPE (cross-linked polyethylene).
Purpose: Provides electrical insulation and helps to withstand temperature variations and environmental conditions.

Binder Tape:

Material: Non-hygroscopic material.
Purpose: Helps to maintain the shape and integrity of the cable core and to prevent water or moisture from penetrating.

Inner Sheath (Bedding):

Material: Extruded PVC.
Purpose: Provides additional protection and reinforcement, often used in armoured cables.

Armor (Optional):

Material: Galvanized steel wires or steel tape.
Purpose: Protects the cable from mechanical damage during installation and operation.

Outer Sheath:

Material: PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) or PE (Polyethylene).
Purpose: Provides overall protection against environmental factors, moisture, and UV radiation.
Type: Can be specific types of PVC, like fire-retardant or anti-rodent PVC, depending on the application.

Fillers (Optional):

Material: Non-hygroscopic material.
Purpose: Used to fill spaces between the insulated conductors, especially in multi-core cables.

Standards:

The construction of 1kV XLPE insulated cables often adheres to standards like IEC 60228 for conductors and IEC 60502-1 for power cables with extruded insulation.
