Used in electrical systems with multiple functionalities, systems that provide monitor, control, regulation and measurement of technical devices and components, automated systems, and systems with multiple inputs and outputs.
Manufactured with copper / aluminium conductors with XLPE or PVC insulation, laid up, inner taped/extruded, with galvanized mild steel wires/strips armouring and high grade FRLS PVC outer sheath. Available as L.T XLPE Insulated & PVC sheathed, armoured/unarmoured cables and L.T PVC Insulated & PVC sheathed cables, with options for Flame Retardant and Zero Halogen Flame Retardant properties, heat resistant features (up to 85 Degree Celsius), and short circuit withstand capability. Used for transmission of electrical power, permanent wiring within buildings, buried in ground, run overhead or exposed, in power distribution, power stations, railways around 1.1 KV.
Made using evenly bare/tin plated copper conductors insulated with HR PVC, further twisted together in pairs and encased in shield (foil or mesh) to create overall shielded pair cables. These shields guard against electromagnetic interference. Used to transmit analog signals such as temperature, pressure, flow, to connect communication transmission between instrument and control system, and for transmission of telephone, telegraph, fax documents, television and radio programs, data and other electrical signals.
Novel concept for overhead power distribution, made as per IS 14255 with aluminium conductor, aluminium alloys with great tensile strengths and perfectly cured XLPE insulation. Compared to conventional bare conductors overhead distribution system, provides higher safety and reliability, lower power losses and system economy by reducing installation, maintenance and operating cost. Best choice for power distribution in difficult terrains such as hilly areas, forest areas, coastal areas, and attractive for installation in congested urban areas with narrow lanes and by lanes in developing urban complexes due to flexibility for rerouting.
Made using electrolytic grade bare flexible copper conductors with high conductivity and then insulated with different kinds of polymers. Can be made available in any colour as per customer's requirement. Used in both commercial and domestic buildings, in conduits, switch boards, lighting and other electrical fittings, and in panels for heavy equipment and control panels of electric sub stations.
