Single core MV XLPE insulated cable 12/20 kV

Key element of the power distribution system to the end-users
Single core with copper or aluminium conductor 12/20 kV

XPLE 4E
Standards
International  IEC 60502-2
Description

Application

 

MV network is a key element of the power distribution system to the end-users; its performance and reliability are strictly related to the quality of cable and accessories.

 

In the medium voltage segment, XLPE insulation permits good cable performance at conductor's operating temperature as high as 90°C, and matches high current carrying capacity with good safety margins.

 

Construction

  • Conductor : copper or aluminium 
  • Insulation : XLPE
  • Outer sheath : PVC
