Single Core XLPE Cable
Single core XLPE cable is a typical XLPE insulated cable for power transmission and power distribution. It is primarily used for transmitting electrical energy. They can be installed overhead or indoors, in tunnels, cable trenches, and other environments. The armored single core XLPE cable can be buried directly, and it is able to withstand mechanical impact, crushing and cutting.
Main Applications
Single core XLPE cable is a typical XLPE insulated cable for power transmission and power distribution. It is primarily used for transmitting electrical energy. They can be installed overhead or indoors, in tunnels, cable trenches, and other environments. The armored single core XLPE cable can be buried directly, and it is able to withstand mechanical impact, crushing and cutting.
Power Transmission
Widely used in medium voltage and high voltage system to transmit electrical energy.
Power Distribution
Widely used for power distribution in medium and low voltage power systems.
Industrial Plants
To supply power to industrial plants, like paper factories, manufacturing plants, water plants, etc.
Underground and Outdoor
Can be buried directly in the ground, installed in ducts, or used in outdoor locations.
Buildings
To supply power to commercial and residential buildings, including main and sub-mains circuits.
Single Core XLPE Insulated Power Cable Construction
Single core Cross-linked polyethylene insulated cable is a type of XLPE insulated Power Cable. The main parts of our single core Cross-linked polyethylene insulated cable are conductor, insulation, and outer sheath. Depending on the application requirements, some custom single core XLPE cables may also have a conductor screen, insulation screen, metallic screen, and an armor layer.
- Conductor: copper conductor or aluminum conductor. Stranded conductor or flexible conductor.
- Conductor Screen: Extruded semi-conductive layer applied over the cable conductor.
- Insulation: XLPE insulation. Maximum permissible long-term temperature 90℃.
- Insulation Screen: Extruded semi-conductive layer directly applied over the insulation layer.
- Metallic Screen: Main materials are copper and aluminum. Can be type of tape or wire.
- Outer Sheath: PVC outer sheath or PE outer sheath.
Types by Conductor Material
The conductor material of single core Cross-linked polyethylene insulated cable is copper (Cu) or aluminum (AL). Copper conductor has superior electrical conductivity. While aluminum conductor single core XLPE cable is light-weight and more cost-effective.
Copper Conductor Single Core XLPE Cable
Aluminum Conductor Single Core XLPE Cable
Types by Armor
Our OEM single core Cross-linked polyethylene insulated cable can be an unarmored XLPE cable or an armored XLPE cable. The armor shall be made of non-magnetic materials. The common armor type is Aluminum Wire Armour (AWA)
Unarmored Single Core XLPE Cable
Unarmored single core XLPE cable is cost-effective due to there is no armor. Can be installed inside pipes, tubes, conduits etc.
AWA Armored Single Core XLPE Cable
AWA armored single core XLPE cable can be buried directly without pipes, tubes, conduits. They are suitable to be installed in harsh environments.
Types by Voltage
600V Single Core XLPE Cable
11KV XLPE Insulated Power Cable
15KV Single Core XLPE Cable
25KV Single Core XLPE Cable
