XLPE Insulated PVC Cable is used for power transmission and distribution line with voltage rated at 1.1kV and below.In comparison with PVC Insulated Power Cable, xlpe power cable boasts not only characteristics of excellent electricity, mechanism, heat and aging-resistant, environment stress-resistant and chemical corrosion-resistant, but also simple structure, light weight, no restriction by laying drop, and high temperature allowance for long-term working. 

It is used to transmit and distribute power in power transmission and distribution system of 35kV or lower. It is generally applied to the fields including power, construction, mines, metallurgy, petrochemical industry and communication in complete replace of oil immersed paper insulated power cable and in partial replace of PVC insulated power cable.

In comparison to bare overhead power distribution lines, XLPE Insulated PVC sheathed armored cables has very high reliability in maintaining services because power and neutral conductors are insulated with the best dielectric medium, resulting in the following advantages:

The hardware and accessories for XLPE cables are made by various reputed manufacturer and is easily available in India. They are similar to the standard hardware available for bare conductor overhead distribution lines.

XLPE Cables are highly reliable and insulation has been developed to withstand heat, cold and intense sunlight. Disturbance and faults occur five to ten times more often in open wire lines than in XLPE lines. There is no risk in touching the live cable and the insulation reduces the number of short circuits and over-voltages in overhead cables during thunderstorms. Few hardware accessories are needed as each one can be used with many different sizes of cable. This makes installation and storage easier. Streets can easily be get lit at little extra cost by using the XLPE cables that have an extra conductor for lighting. The cable can be supplied with one or two insulated conductors for street lighting.
