XLPE SWA cable is a steel wire armored cable (SWA) insulated with cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE).
The characteristics and uses of this cable are as follows:
XLPE insulation: XLPE stands for cross-linked polyethylene, which is a polyethylene material improved through a chemical cross-linking process. XLPE cables play an important role in the power grid due to their excellent electrical, mechanical, and heat resistance properties. XLPE insulated cables can maintain stable performance at high temperatures and have good resistance to deformation, with a working temperature of up to 90 ℃
.
SWA Armor: SWA stands for Steel Wire armour, which is typically made by winding steel wires and provides additional mechanical protection, increasing the cable's tensile strength and durability. Steel wire armored cables are suitable for environments that require heavy pressure and tension, and are commonly used in power and communication overhead lines.
In summary, XLPE SWA cable combine the electrical performance of XLPE insulation with the mechanical protection performance of Sswa armour, making them suitable for applications that require high electrical performance and mechanical strength, such as the installation of power transmission and communication lines
