0.6/1kV Low Voltage Power Distribution Series
♦ This series is designed for secondary grids, heavy industrial plants, and commercial buildings at 0.6/1kV.
♦ Conductor and Insulation Combinations
♦ Conductors: high-purity electrolytic copper (CU) or electrical-grade aluminum (AL).
♦ Insulation and sheath materials can be selected independently. The factory supports mainstream combinations of PVC, PE, and XLPE to meet project requirements for temperature resistance, waterproofing, and mechanical protection.
♦ Specific selection depends on project ampacity, ambient temperature, and installation budget. For example: 90°C thermal rating or enhanced underground waterproofing — both achievable through material combinations.
♦ Mechanical Protection and Optional Upgrades
♦ Standard configurations include non-armoured and heavy armoured designs. Optional add-ons:
♦ - LSZH compounds for enclosed public areas
♦ - Mica-tape fire-resistant (FR) barriers for emergency circuits
♦ - Anti-termite / anti-rodent chemical sheaths for direct burial or outdoor environments
♦ Compliance
♦ All cables comply with **IEC 60502-1** . Third-party test reports available upon request.
STA Armoured Cable
As a major pillar of our Low Voltage Cable range, the STA Armoured Cable collection is specifically developed for fixed installations requiring reliable mechanical protection. Double layers of galvanized steel tape armour (STA) effectively resist external radial pressure and soil compression, making this low voltage steel tape armoured cable line the most economical choice for direct underground burial, cable trenches, and heavy-traffic industrial grids.
♦ Standards: IEC 60502-1, BS 5467
♦ Cores: 1 Core, 3 Cores, 4 Cores, 5 Cores
♦ Conductors: Premium Oxygen-Free Copper (CU) or Electrical-Grade Aluminum (AL)
♦ Material Matrix: Insulation and sheath materials can be selected independently among PVC, PE, and XLPE to meet your project's specific temperature and waterproofing needs.
♦ Optional Upgrade: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) compounds are available upon request for both insulation and sheathing layers to comply with advanced public safety mandates.
Key Advantages
♦ Anti-Eddy Current Setup: Conventional steel tape on single-core lines generates magnetic loop heating. Therefore, all 1-Core cables in this series feature non-magnetic Stainless Steel Tape Armor (SSTA) to completely eliminate eddy current losses while retaining full physical protection.
♦ Subterranean Defense: The rigid steel armor shell disperses heavy vertical loads from soil backfills and surface traffic, while providing an impenetrable shield against rodent and termite penetration in direct burial environments.
♦ Flexible Factory Customization: Fully supporting our factory's flexible compound system, you can freely cross-match conductors (CU/AL) with multiple insulation/jacket layouts across 1 to 5 cores to fit diverse engineering budgets.
Application Guideline
♦ Choose STA: Ideal for direct underground burial, cable trenches, and humid environments requiring moderate mechanical crush protection.
♦ Choose SWA: STA is not recommended for environments with frequent bending, vertical suspension, or high-tensile stretching risks. For high-tensile engineering, please refer to our SWA armoured cable series.
