High Voltage Cable Steel Wire Steel Tape Armored XLPE Insulated Power Cable
This high‑voltage armored power cable adopts cross‑linked polyethylene (XLPE) as the core insulation material, with steel tape or steel wire armored structure and copper/aluminum conductor options. It is mainly used for medium‑and‑high‑voltage power transmission and distribution in urban power grids, industrial parks, new energy projects and underground buried scenarios. Combined with our actual product parameter data, this cable strictly controls insulation thickness, armor specification and current‑carrying performance, adapting to heavy‑load power supply and complex laying environments such as soil pressure, external force damage and damp corrosion.

Product Structure
- Conductor: Compact stranded copper or aluminum conductor, with low DC resistance and stable current‑carrying capacity. Copper type (YJV) has better conductivity, while aluminum type (YJLV) features cost‑effective and lightweight advantages.
- XLPE Insulation: Cross‑linked polyethylene insulation with thickness ranging from 0.7mm to 1.8mm according to cross‑section. It has high‑voltage resistance, heat resistance and anti‑aging performance, ensuring long‑term stable insulation performance.
- Armored Layer: Two optional structures: steel tape armored for anti‑pressure and anti‑external‑force‑damage; steel wire armored for strong tensile resistance, suitable for overhead, vertical laying and long‑distance overhead power transmission projects.
- Outer Sheath: Thickened protective sheath with thickness from 11.3mm to 63.4mm, waterproof, anti‑corrosion and wear‑resistant, isolating soil moisture, chemical substances and mechanical damage.

Core Advantages
1. Diversified Armored Protection for Complex Environments
Steel tape armored structure resists extrusion and impact during underground burial; steel wire armored design bears large tensile force, meeting the requirements of vertical laying, overhead crossing and mountainous power transmission. Two types can be selected according to actual engineering conditions.
2. Stable Electrical Performance & Wide Specification Coverage
Complete cross‑section specifications from 2.5mm² to 300mm². Copper conductor DC resistance at 20℃ is controlled within 0.0601‑7.41Ω/km, aluminum conductor within 0.100‑12.1Ω/km. The ampacity at 25℃ reaches 35‑515A for direct burial and 26‑505A for air laying, fully meeting heavy‑load power supply needs.
3. High‑quality XLPE Insulation, Long Service Life
XLPE insulation material can withstand long‑term high‑temperature operation, with excellent partial discharge resistance and voltage‑withstanding performance. The whole cable resists ultraviolet, damp and aging, with a service life of more than 30 years under normal laying conditions.
4. Two‑material Conductor Options to Match Different Projects
YJV copper‑core cable is used for high‑requirement urban main grid and key industrial projects; YJLV aluminum‑core cable reduces overall engineering cost, widely used in large‑area power distribution and new energy supporting power supply.
FAQ
Q1: What conductor options do you offer for this armored power cable?
A: We provide two mainstream conductor types: compact stranded copper (YJV) and aluminum (YJLV). Copper delivers better conductivity and lower power loss, while aluminum is more cost‑effective and lightweight for large‑scale distribution projects.
Q2: What’s the difference between steel tape armored and steel wire armored versions?
A: Steel tape armored mainly resists compression and external impact, ideal for underground direct burial. Steel wire armored has strong tensile resistance, suitable for vertical laying, overhead crossing and mountainous long‑distance power transmission.
Q3: What cross‑section sizes are available for this cable?
A: Standard cross‑sections range from 3×2.5mm² up to 3×300mm², fully covering common specifications for urban power grids, industrial plants and new energy projects.
Q4: What is the current‑carrying capacity at 25℃?
A: For direct‑in‑ground laying, the ampacity ranges from 35A to 515A for copper core, 27A‑400A for aluminum core. For air laying, copper core ranges 26A‑505A, aluminum core 20A‑395A, based on different cross‑section areas.
Q5: What is the maximum DC resistance of the conductor at 20℃?
A: Copper conductor resistance is 0.0601–7.41 Ω/km; aluminum conductor resistance is 0.100–12.1 Ω/km, strictly controlled according to industry standards.
Q6: What material is used for insulation and sheath?
A: Insulation adopts high‑performance XLPE (cross‑linked polyethylene) with thickness from 0.7mm to 1.8mm. The outer sheath is thickened anti‑aging PVC/PE with thickness 11.3mm‑63.4mm, waterproof and corrosion‑resistant.
Q7: What are the main application scenarios?
A: It is widely used in urban power distribution networks, industrial park power supply, photovoltaic/wind power stations, tunnel projects, mine power transmission, underground pipe galleries and residential power transformation projects.
Q8: What is the maximum continuous operating temperature?
A: The cable can work continuously at 90℃, with short‑circuit temperature up to 250℃, adapting to long‑term heavy‑load power supply.
Q9: Can you provide test reports and certifications?
A: Yes. All cables comply with IEC and power industry standards. We provide factory inspection reports, electrical performance test data and support third‑party certification to meet engineering bidding requirements.
