The 0.6/1kV three core ABC cable manufactured by Zhongdong Cable is designed for low-voltage overhead distribution networks. It consists of three insulated aluminium conductors with UV-resistant XLPE insulation, providing a compact and reliable solution for aerial power supply systems.
The bundled construction reduces the risk of phase-to-phase contact and improves safety compared with traditional bare overhead conductors. Its lightweight structure and simple installation make it suitable for residential, rural, and utility distribution projects.

Three core ABC cable has insulated bundled conductors, which improves safety and reduces the risk of short circuits caused by contact between phases or external objects.
Yes. The XLPE insulation provides good resistance to UV radiation, moisture, and weather conditions, making it suitable for long-term outdoor installation.
The XLPE insulation allows continuous conductor operation up to 90°C, with short-circuit temperature up to 250°C for 5 seconds.
Installation normally requires suspension clamps, anchoring clamps, and suitable fittings to support the cable on poles or structures.
The recommended minimum bending radius is generally 10 × overall cable diameter. Excessive bending should be avoided during installation to protect the insulation.
Yes. Its lightweight structure and reduced maintenance requirements make it suitable for extending low-voltage power networks in rural and remote areas.
