Product Specification

4x185mm2 Aluminium Conductor SWA Armoured Power Cable 0.6/1kV IEC 60502-1 Cost Saving

Product Overview

Our 4x185mm2 aluminium conductor SWA armoured power cable is a robust and highly cost-efficient solution for low voltage (0.6/1kV) power transmission. Designed with stranded sectoral or round aluminium conductors, this 4-core cable is heavily protected by a layer of Steel Wire Armour (SWA). It is specifically built to withstand external mechanical impact and high tensile stress during installation in industrial, mining, and utility environments.

The aluminium conductor delivers a dramatically lower material cost than equivalent copper cables while remaining fully compliant with IEC 60502-1, making it the preferred choice for large-scale utility and industrial contractors. We provide global shipping, custom cut lengths, and complete documentation for tender compliance.

Key Product Advantages

• Optimized Project ROI: The 185mm² aluminium conductor drastically reduces material costs compared to copper, making it the preferred choice for large-scale utility and industrial contractors.
• Superior Mechanical Shielding: SWA provides exceptional resistance against crush forces and rodent attacks, eliminating the need for additional protective conduits in direct burial applications.
• Moisture & Chemical Resistance: The heavy-duty PVC outer sheath offers excellent resistance to moisture, chemicals, and UV rays, ensuring a long operational service life.

Targeted Project Applications

• Renewable energy projects (solar farms and wind power plant grid connections).
• Mining power distribution and heavy industrial infrastructure.
• Municipal electricity supply networks and urban construction grids.

Supply Chain & Packaging Details

• Packaging: Supplied on export-standard treated wooden drums or steel-wooden drums.
• Production Lead Time: Typically 15-25 days depending on the total order volume.
• Documentation Provided: Certificate of Origin (Form E/F, CO), Mill Test Certificate (MTC), Packing List, and Quality Inspection Reports.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What is the standard packaging length for 4x185mm2 SWA cable?

Our standard manufacturing length is 500 meters or 1000 meters per drum. However, we can accommodate custom cut lengths based on your specific project layout to minimize cable joints on-site. All cables are packed on seaworthy treated wooden or steel-wooden drums.

Q: Does your 4x185mm2 aluminium power cable comply with international standards?

Our cables are manufactured strictly in accordance with IEC 60502-1 and BS 5467 standards. We provide a complete Mill Test Certificate (MTC) with every shipment, verifying compliance with electrical resistance, insulation thickness, and mechanical tensile strength tests.

Q: What is the minimum bending radius for a 4-core 185mm2 armoured cable?

The minimum bending radius during installation is 12 times the overall diameter (12x OD) of the cable. Bending the cable beyond this limit may damage the galvanized steel wire armour layer or strain the internal XLPE insulation cores.
