Zhongdong Cable manufactures 0.6/1kV low voltage cables for secondary power distribution, industrial facilities, commercial buildings, infrastructure and utility projects. Our LV cable range supports copper or aluminum conductors, XLPE, PVC, PE and LSZH material options, together with unarmoured, STA, SWA and AWA constructions for different installation conditions.
Manufactured in accordance with IEC 60502-1, our low voltage power cables can be configured according to conductor material, core arrangement, insulation, sheath, armour, fire performance and installation environment. OEM and project-specific cable designs are available for distributors, EPC contractors, utilities and industrial buyers.
Our 0.6/1kV low voltage power cable portfolio covers multiple constructions for different mechanical protection and installation requirements. Select the cable family according to the installation route and operating environment.
Designed for protected fixed installations such as cable trays, conduits, ducts and indoor power distribution where additional mechanical armour is not required.
Steel tape armour provides additional protection against radial mechanical pressure, making it suitable for underground, trench and industrial fixed installations.
Steel wire armour provides stronger mechanical and tensile protection for demanding underground and infrastructure installations.
Aluminium wire armour is particularly suitable for single-core AC power cables where a non-magnetic armour system is required.
♦ This series is designed for secondary grids, heavy industrial plants, and commercial buildings at 0.6/1kV.
♦ 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.
♦ Standard configurations include non-armoured and heavy armoured designs. Optional add-ons:
♦ All cables comply with IEC 60502-1. Third-party test reports available upon request.
Cable selection should be based on the electrical load, installation method and operating environment rather than voltage rating alone.
| Project Requirement | Typical Cable Option | Selection Consideration |
|---|---|---|
| Protected indoor installation | Unarmoured LV cable | Suitable for trays, conduits and protected routes |
| Underground with mechanical pressure | STA armoured cable | Additional radial mechanical protection |
| Underground or demanding installation | SWA armoured cable | Higher mechanical and tensile protection |
| Single-core AC circuit requiring armour | AWA armoured cable | Non-magnetic aluminium armour |
| Higher operating temperature | XLPE insulation | Typically selected for higher thermal performance |
| Standard general distribution | PVC or XLPE construction | Selected according to project specification and budget |
| Public or enclosed areas | LSZH option | Helps meet smoke and corrosive gas requirements where specified |
| Outdoor or buried installation | Project-specific sheath protection | UV, moisture, termite or rodent-resistant options can be specified |
Zhongdong Cable's engineering team can review cable schedules, installation conditions and project standards before production to help determine the appropriate conductor, insulation, armour and sheath combination.
Copper or electrical-grade aluminum conductors can be selected according to conductivity, cable weight and project budget. Conductor construction can be matched to the required IEC specification.
XLPE is commonly selected where higher thermal performance is required, while PVC and other material systems can be supplied according to operating conditions and project standards.
PVC, PE and LSZH sheath options are available to address indoor, outdoor, underground and safety-related installation requirements.
Low voltage power cables can be supplied as unarmoured, steel tape armoured, steel wire armoured or aluminium wire armoured constructions depending on cable route and mechanical loading.
Special requirements including flame-retardant, fire-resistant, water-resistant, anti-termite, anti-rodent and customized sheath solutions can also be evaluated according to the project specification.
Zhongdong LV power cables are designed for fixed electricity distribution between transformers, switchboards, distribution panels, electrical equipment and downstream loads.

Different projects require different conductor sizes, materials, cable constructions and documentation. Zhongdong Cable supports project-specific low voltage cable manufacturing rather than limiting buyers to a small number of standard configurations.
Customization can include conductor material, number of cores, conductor cross-section, insulation and sheath compounds, armour type, cable marking, sheath colour, drum length, packaging and project documentation.
For tender and EPC requirements, buyers can submit cable schedules, technical datasheets, BOQs or project specifications for engineering review before quotation and production.
Founded in 2006, Zhongdong Cable operates a 67,000 m² manufacturing facility supported by 30+ production lines, 35+ testing equipment sets, 38+ senior engineers and 50+ patents.
Production and inspection processes are designed to maintain consistent conductor dimensions, insulation quality, electrical performance and finished cable construction throughout bulk orders. Depending on the specification, inspections can cover conductor resistance, dimensional checks, insulation and sheath integrity, voltage performance and other required electrical or mechanical tests. Third-party testing and project documentation can also be coordinated where required.
30+ production lines support the manufacture of multiple power cable constructions for project and bulk procurement requirements.
38+ senior engineers support cable configuration and project-specific R&D for different electrical, material and installation requirements.
35+ testing equipment sets support quality inspection throughout cable manufacturing and finished-product verification.
Conductor, insulation, sheath, armour, marking, packaging and supporting documentation can be configured according to project requirements.
Providing a complete specification helps our engineering and quotation teams match the required construction more accurately.
A cable schedule, BOQ or technical datasheet can also be submitted directly for review.
This category primarily covers 0.6/1kV (600/1000V) low voltage power cables for fixed power distribution systems. Medium- and high-voltage cables are covered by separate product categories.
Copper provides high conductivity and allows a smaller conductor for a given electrical requirement, while aluminum can reduce cable weight and material cost. Selection should consider ampacity, installation conditions, conductor size and total project cost.
Armoured cable is generally selected where the cable may be exposed to mechanical pressure, pulling forces or underground installation risks. STA, SWA and AWA constructions provide different forms of mechanical protection and should be selected according to the installation method.
Yes. Conductor material, insulation, sheath, armour, number of cores, cable size, marking, packaging and special protection requirements can be customized according to the project specification.
Provide the rated voltage, conductor material, number of cores, cross-sectional area, insulation, sheath, armour type, applicable standard, installation environment and required quantity. A cable schedule or technical specification is the preferred reference for project orders.

Send Your RFQSWA Armoured Cable
Within our heavy-duty Low Voltage Cable segment, this SWA Armoured Cable series is designed for harsh engineering environments requiring the highest level of mechanical protection. A dense layer of round galvanized steel wires (SWA) provides exceptional longitudinal tensile strength and crush resistance, making this low voltage steel wire armoured cable range the premier safety choice for mining, tunneling, municipal grids, and high-tensile installations.
♦ Standards: IEC 60502-1, BS 5467, VDE 0271
♦ Cores: 3 Cores, 4 Cores, 5 Cores (Note: SWA is not applicable to 1-Core AC lines due to eddy current heating)
♦ 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 adapt to specific soil conditions and ambient stresses.
♦ Optional Upgrade: Beyond standard PVC/PE options, our production line offers tailored flame-retardant polymers and halogen-free compound upgrades. This modification is highly recommended for transit tunnels and heavy industrial containment zones to prevent toxic gas release during critical thermal emergencies.
Key Advantages
♦ High Tensile Backbone: The helical steel wire armor absorbs massive gravitational and mechanical pulling forces during installation. This ensures internal conductors never stretch or snap, making it invaluable for high-drop vertical riser shafts and deep boreholes.
♦ Full-Scenario Defense: Provides a heavy-duty mechanical shield against sharp rocky backfills, land subsidence, and underground biological hazards like rodents and termites, significantly extending the cable's operational lifespan.
♦ Substation System Safety: The continuous galvanized steel wire grid functions as an exceptionally low-resistance grounding path for the entire electrical network, enhancing on-site safety during high-power continuous operations.
Application Guideline
♦ Choose SWA: Crucial for vertical mine shafts, high-rise risers, river crossings, or deep direct burial with high mechanical pulling stress.
♦ Alternatives: If heavy tensile strength is not required and you prefer a lighter, lower-cost option, please view our STA steel tape armoured series. For 1-Core armoured applications, please see our AWA aluminium wire armoured series.
