Product type
XLPE power cables are electrical cables that utilize cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) as their insulation material. This type of insulation offers excellent thermal resistance and electrical properties, making XLPE cables suitable for high voltage applications. The cables are typically constructed with a copper or aluminum conductor, surrounded by XLPE insulation, and may include additional layers such as armor or sheathing for protection against environmental factors.
| Conductor material | Copper or aluminum |
| Insulation material | Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) |
| Voltage rating | Up to 36 kV |
| Temperature range | -40°C to +90°C |
| Standard sizes | 1.5 mm² to 1000 mm² |
| Shielding options | Unshielded or shielded |
When selecting XLPE power cables, consider the voltage rating and current-carrying capacity required for your application. Specify the conductor material based on your installation needs, as well as the necessary insulation thickness. Additionally, inquire about any specific certifications or standards that may be required for your project, such as IEC or UL certifications. Providing details on the installation environment and expected temperature range can also help suppliers recommend the best options.
