Product Description

                    0.6/1KV Aerial Bundled Conductor (ABC) Cables

 

Aerial Bundle Cables, normally referred to as Aerial Bundled Conductors or ABC, with 0.6/1KV, are called for   combining multiple single-core cables together. ABC cable is widely used in temporary power distribution to street lighting and secondary pole-pole service cables. ABC wires feature light-stranded aluminum conductors, both single-core and multi-core, covered with XLPE/PE/PVC insulation. They are more commonly used in temporary power installations such as an on-base buildings. ABC cables are often referred to as bare conductors As insulated cables. These ABC cables are installed and separated by air gaps but where sparks and shorts in the event of high winds may cause resulting bush fires in dry climates or risk nearby property.  

Aerial Bundle Cables have a working temperature range from -40℃ to +80℃ and can be set up in temperatures as low as -20°C.

Our standard of Low Voltage ABC (lv ABC cable) is m BS7870 and has a voltage rating of 0.6/1kV. With the insulation, it also meets Class II according to IEC 61140 in protecting against electric shock.

Advantages of ABC cables:

  1. Increased safety: ABC cables greatly reduce the risk of electrical accidents by insulating the conductors. They are safer in densely populated areas or in areas accessible to the public.
  2. Higher reliability: The bundle conductor cable have a sturdy design that minimizes power interruptions due to environmental factors. Stable and reliable power supply is  guaranteed even under adverse conditions.
  3. Quick and easy installation: Each abc cable specification is lightweight and flexible and can be installed quickly without the need for heavy equipment. As a result, project schedules are accelerated and labor costs are reduced.
  4. Reduced Maintenance Costs: Once installed, ABC cables require less maintenance than conventional power lines due to their durable insulation and resistance to environmental damage.
  5. Better aesthetics: ABC cables are compact and aesthetically unobtrusive, making them better for use in urban environments where maintaining the aesthetics of the environment is critical.
  6. Versatility: ABC cables can be used in a variety of situations, from urban development to industrial applications, providing a flexible solution to meet different power distribution needs.

 

Aerial Bundle Cable Applications

Aerial bundle cables are able to demonstrate excellent performance in a variety of power distribution scenarios. It is particularly suitable for densely populated urban areas, rural areas with complex terrain, and areas prone to severe weather. Other applications include:

Urban Development. ABC cables play an important role in urbanized areas. It can be easily installed in tight spaces and reduces visual impact, resulting in reliable power distribution while maintaining aesthetics.

Rural electrification. In remote areas, ABC cable offers a cost-effective and fast alternative to traditional transmission lines. It improves access to electricity without major infrastructure modifications.

Disaster-prone areas. In the event of widespread rainy weather, exposed conductors can cause line breaks and accidents. ABC cables are insulated to maintain uninterrupted power in areas prone to natural disasters.

Upgrade existing networks. ABC cables are well suited to historic or congested areas, as they can be used to upgrade old electrical systems, thereby increasing safety and capacity without the need for a complete overhaul.

Tree-rich areas. Special circumstances allow ABC cables to be set up in trees, avoiding operations such as cutting down greenery to build poles. It reduces the footprint of the electrical infrastructure and promotes the concept of environmental protection.

Industrial applications. ABC cable meets the high demands and exacting standards of industrial power supply, providing hard-wearing, efficient and safe power distribution solutions for factories and industrial plants.

 

 

How to install aerial bundled cables?

At every stage of abc cable installation, we pay strict attention to safety and comply with all applicable standards and regulations. Here are the basic steps we take to address this:

  1. Initial preparation and compliance: The first step is to obtain all necessary regulatory approvals and ensure that the planned cable installation path is free of obstacles. Having the right tools and protective equipment is also important.
  2. Accurate Measurement and Procurement: The second phase is characterized by accurately determining the ABC wire and cable installation distances. It minimizes waste and additional expenditures.
  3. Installation of support structures: Subsequently, sturdy support mechanisms or struts are installed at predetermined intervals. The structure must be strong enough to support the weight of the cable and withstand harsh environments.
  4. Laying the cable: Once the structural support is firmly in place, the meticulous ABC laying process begins. This stage requires close attention to prevent overstretching or twisting of the cable.
  5. Finalization and Quality Assurance: The final step is to secure the cables to the supports using suitable fixtures, followed by a comprehensive series of tests to verify the integrity of the installation and its readiness for start-up.
