Primecab specializes in manufacturing XLPE cables ranging from 3300 volts to 33000 volts with sizes upto 1000 sq mm.

SPECIAL FEATURES: XLPE INSULATION

Cross-linked Polyethylene Insulated Electric or XLPE Power Cables possesses excellent electrical, mechanical and heat-resistant properties. It has an advantage over PVC insulated cables because of its easy maintenance. Due to the invention of advanced XLPE insulation, EHV cables are also available today. Primecab XLPE cables are manufactured and tested in accordance with IS: 7098 (Part II) and other international standards.

SUSTAINED CURRENT RATING OF HT XLPE CABLES

The current ratings of HT XLPE cables given in the different tables are based on the following assumptions:

i)	Maximum conductor temperature for conditions operation	90◦C
ii)	Ambient air temperature	40 ◦C
iii)	Ground temperature	30 ◦C
iv)	Thermal resistivity of soil	150◦ cm/Watt
v)	Depth of laying (to the highest point of the cables laid direct in the ground)	90 cm

METHOD OF INSTALLATION

• Multi core cables are installed singly.
• Single core cables are laid in trefoil formation.
