Triplex XLPE overhead abc cable

Aerial bundle cable( 11kv abc cable) is applied to overhead power line with rated voltage 0.6/1kv and 10KV.

1, Types of abc cable:

Duplex Service Drop, Triplex Service Drop, Quadruplex Service Drop

    a Duplex Service Drop

   Applications: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 maximum.

   b Triplex Service Drop

   Applications: To supply power from the ulility`s lines to the consumer`s weatherhead. For service at 600 volts or less(phase to phase ) at a conductor temperature of 75 maximum for PE insulation or 90 maximum for XLPE insulation .

    c Quadruplex Service Drop

    Applications: Used to supply 3 phase power , usually from a pole-mounted transformer to the use`s servic head where connection to the service entance cable is made . To be used at voltages of 600 volts or less phase to phase and at conductor temperature not to exceed 75 for PE insulated conductors or 90 for XLPE insulated conductors.

2,  Constructions of abc cable
     a Phase Conductor construction:The phase conductor is aluminum alloy 1350-H19 hard-drawn, compressed concentric-lay-stranded.

    b  Neutral Conductor Construction
Cable assemblies are available with the following neutral conductors:

Aluminum conductors, coated-steel reinforced (ACSR), concentric-lay-stranded

Aluminum alloy 1350-H19 hard-drawn, concentric-lay-stranded

Aluminum alloy 6201-T81, concentric-lay-stranded

    c Insulation Material
The standard insulation on the phase conductor is black low-density crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE)

Alternatively, black linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) insulation with a 75°C temperature rating is available upon request. 

 3, specifications of abc cable

Aluminium stranded conductor(compacted or non- compacted), AAAC messenger core(or ACSR messenger core), XLPE(or HDPE) insulated, Twisted (or Parallel)power cable

11kv abc cable is a new type of aerial cable for power transmitting, It is extensively used in overhead power transmission line, It improves the safety and reliance of electrified wire netting.
