MV ABC Cable

Aerial bundled cables (also aerial bundled conductors or simply ABC) are overhead power lines using several insulated phase conductors bundled tightly together, usually with a bare neutral conductor. This contrasts with the traditional practice of using uninsulated conductors separated by air gaps. This variation of overhead power lines utilizes the same principles as bundled conductors, except that they are closer together to the point of touching but each conductor is surrounded by an insulating layer (except for the neutral line).

MV ABC Cable Construction:

• Phase Conductor: Circular compacted stranded H68 aluminium to BS2627.
• Conductor Screen: Extruded semi-conductive layer.
• insulation: XLPE.
• insulation Screen: Extruded semi-conductive layer.
• metallic Screen(optional): Copper wire screen or copper tape screen.
• Separator: Semi-conductive swellable tape.
• outer Sheath: HDPE.
• Support Conductor: Galvanized steel wires.
• Assembly: Three XLPE insulated screened cores are bundled around the galvanized steel wires in a right hand

MV ABC Cable Application:

Three XLPE insulated screened cores are bundled around the galvanized steel wires in a right hand lay.Primarily used for overhead service applications such as street lighting,outdoor lighting,and temporary service for construction. To be used at votages of 600V phase-to-phase or less and at conductor temperatures not to exceed 75℃ for polyethylence insulated conductors or 90℃ for crossliked polyethylene(XLPE) insulated conductors
