Overhead power line 10kv Multi-core XLPE-UV Insulation ABC Cable IEC Standard

 

 

 Application:

 

Aerial Bundle Cable (ABC cable) is a very innovative concept for overhead power distribution as compared to the conventional bare conductor overhead distribution system. It provides higher level of safety and reliability, lower power losses and ultimate system economy by reducing installation, maintenance and operative cost.

 

Covered line wire

Covered line wire is used primarily for overhead secondary distribution lines.It is not an electrically insulated conductor and is treated as bare conductor when installed.

 

Duplex service drop

To supply 120 volt aerial service for temporary service at construction sites, outdoor or street lighting. For service at 600 volts or lower at a conductor temperature of 75 °C maximum.

 

Triplex service drop

To supply power from the utility’s lines to the consumer’s weatherhead. For service at 600 volts or less (phase to phase) at a conductor temperature of 75°Cmaximum for polyethylene insulation or 90°C maximum for cross linked insulation.

 

Quadruplex service drop

 

Used to supply 3 phase power, usually from a pole-mounted transformer, to the user’s service head where connection to the service entrance cable is made. To be used at voltage of 600 volts or less phase to phase and at conductor temperature no to exceed 75°C for polyethylene insulated conductor or 90°C for cross linked polyethylene insulated conductors.

 

 

Standard: Aerial Bundled Cable meet or exceed the following standards :  IEC228, IEC209, IEC60502, ASTM ANSI/ICEA S-76-474, NFC 33-209,HRN HD 626 S1 / DIN VDE 0276 part 626 / BS7870/ GB/T12527-2008
