Industrial Facilities: Factories, manufacturing plants, and refineries rely on this cable to power heavy machinery, furnaces, and production lines. Its 750 Mcm conductor handles the high current demands of industrial equipment, while the PVC sheath resists damage from oils, chemicals, and mechanical abrasion common in industrial settings. The 5kv/8kv rating allows direct connection to on-site transformers, simplifying power distribution within the facility.
Commercial Complexes: Large shopping malls, office towers, and hotels utilize the cable as a main power feeder. It efficiently distributes electricity from the building’s main switchgear to subpanels, supporting HVAC systems, lighting, elevators, and backup generators. The 90°C operating temperature ensures reliability even in enclosed spaces with high ambient temperatures, such as mechanical rooms.
Urban Distribution Networks: Municipalities deploy the cable in urban power grids to connect substations to residential neighborhoods and commercial districts. Its medium voltage rating makes it suitable for medium-distance transmission (up to 5 kilometers), reducing the need for multiple transformers. The PVC sheath’s resistance to moisture and UV radiation ensures longevity in underground or overhead installations.
Infrastructure Projects: Airports, seaports, and transportation hubs use the cable to power terminal facilities, lighting systems, and cargo handling equipment. Its robust design withstands the heavy foot traffic, vibrations, and environmental exposure typical in these settings. The 105°C overload capacity provides a safety margin during peak usage periods, such as holiday travel rushes.
Renewable Energy Facilities: Small to medium-sized solar farms and wind parks employ the cable to transmit power from inverters to grid connection points. Its high current capacity handles the output of multiple energy generators, while the PVC Insulation’s durability protects against outdoor elements like rain, dust, and temperature fluctuations.
Conductor: The conductor is made from high-purity electrolytic copper (99.95% purity) or aluminum alloy. Copper is preferred for its superior conductivity (58 MS/m), minimizing resistive losses, while aluminum offers a cost-effective, lightweight alternative (37 MS/m conductivity). The conductor is stranded—composed of multiple thin wires twisted together—to enhance flexibility, allowing bending during installation without cracking. Stranding also ensures uniform current distribution and reduces skin effect losses at higher frequencies.
PVC Insulation: The insulation layer is extruded from rigid PVC compound, formulated for high dielectric strength and thermal stability. PVC is chosen for its excellent electrical insulation properties, resistance to moisture, and low cost. The insulation is cross-linked during manufacturing to improve heat resistance, enabling the cable to operate at 90°C continuously. Additives such as stabilizers and flame retardants are incorporated to enhance durability and reduce flammability.
PVC Sheath: The outer sheath is made from a flexible PVC compound, providing mechanical protection and environmental resistance. It is extruded over the insulation layer, forming a tight seal that prevents moisture, dust, and chemicals from penetrating the cable. The sheath’s flexibility allows for easy installation, while its toughness resists cuts, abrasions, and impact from external objects.
Binder Tape: A polyester binder tape is wrapped around the Insulated Conductor to hold the layers together, preventing movement and reducing friction during installation. This tape also acts as a secondary moisture barrier, enhancing the cable’s resistance to water ingress.
Optional Armor: For applications requiring additional mechanical protection—such as direct burial or industrial environments with heavy machinery—some variants include a Steel Tape or wire armor layer beneath the sheath. The armor is galvanized to resist corrosion, ensuring longevity in harsh conditions.
Conductor Stranding: Individual copper or Aluminum Wires (0.5 to 1.0 mm in diameter) are drawn to size and twisted together in a stranding machine. The stranding pattern (concentric or bunch) ensures uniform density and flexibility. The Stranded Conductor is annealed to reduce hardness, improving ductility for easier handling.
Insulation Extrusion: The stranded conductor is fed into an extrusion line where PVC insulation is applied. The PVC compound, in pellet form, is melted and forced through a die, forming a continuous layer around the conductor. The extrusion process is computer-controlled to maintain precise insulation thickness (3.5 to 4.5 mm), with online monitoring systems checking for defects like air bubbles or uneven coating.
Binder Tape Application: After insulation, the conductor passes through a taping machine where a polyester binder tape is wrapped helically around the insulation. This tape secures the insulation and provides additional structural support.
Sheath Extrusion: The insulated and taped conductor is fed into a second extrusion line to apply the PVC sheath. The sheath material is melted and extruded over the binder tape, forming a tight, continuous layer. The sheath’s thickness (1.5 to 2.0 mm) is controlled to meet mechanical and environmental protection requirements.
Curing and Cooling: The cable is passed through a cooling trough to solidify the PVC insulation and sheath. For cross-linked PVC variants, a curing process (using heat or chemical agents) follows, enhancing the material’s thermal and mechanical properties.
Quality Testing: Each cable undergoes rigorous testing before leaving the factory. Electrical tests include AC voltage withstand (applying 12kv for 5 minutes to check for insulation breakdown) and insulation resistance measurement. Mechanical tests assess the sheath’s resistance to impact, tensile strength, and flexibility. Samples from each production batch are also subjected to thermal aging tests, exposing them to 105°C for 1000 hours to verify long-term performance.
Reels: For standard lengths (500m, 1000m, or custom lengths up to 2000m), the cable is wound onto heavy-duty wooden or steel reels. Wooden reels are cost-effective and eco-friendly, suitable for domestic shipments, while steel reels offer enhanced durability for international transport or repeated use. Each reel has flanges (1.5 to 2.5 meters in diameter) to prevent the cable from slipping off, and a steel hub with lifting holes for easy handling with cranes or forklifts. The cable ends are sealed with moisture-resistant caps to prevent water or debris ingress.
Coils: For shorter lengths (50m, 100m, or 200m), the cable is coiled and wrapped in multiple layers of UV-resistant polyethylene (PE) film. This film protects against moisture, dust, and sunlight during short-term storage or local delivery. Each coil is secured with polypropylene straps to maintain its shape and prevent unwinding.
Labeling: Every reel or coil is labeled with detailed information, including the cable type (Medium Voltage 750 Mcm 5kv/8kv PVC Power Electric Mv-105/90), length, batch number, manufacturing date, and compliance certifications (e.g., "IEC 60502-1 Approved"). Handling instructions, such as "Store in Dry Conditions" and "Maximum Stacking Height," are also included to guide proper storage.
Palletization: Bulk orders of coils or small reels are secured onto wooden pallets using steel straps. Pallets are shrink-wrapped to protect against dust and moisture, with labels indicating the total weight (500 to 1000 kg) and number of units, simplifying inventory management.
Loading and Securing: Reels are loaded horizontally onto trucks, trailers, or shipping containers to prevent deformation. They are secured with steel chains or ratchet straps attached to the vehicle’s anchor points, with wooden blocks placed between reels to prevent movement during transit. Coils are stacked vertically with separators to avoid crushing, and their weight is evenly distributed to prevent vehicle imbalance.
Temperature Control: While the cable withstands a wide temperature range (-30°C to 105°C), extreme temperatures during transportation can affect handling. In hot climates (above 40°C), cables are transported in shaded vehicles or containers to prevent the PVC sheath from softening, which could cause adhesion between layers. In cold climates (below -10°C), the cable becomes stiffer, so loading/unloading is done carefully to avoid cracking the sheath or insulation.
Handling Equipment: Only certified equipment—such as forklifts with reel handlers or cranes with spreader bars—is used to move reels. Operators are trained to avoid sudden impacts or drops, which could damage the conductor or insulation. Manual handling is limited to small coils (≤50m) to prevent worker injury.
Documentation: Transport documents include a packing list, certificate of conformity, material safety data sheet (MSDS), and shipping manifest. For international shipments, additional documents such as customs declarations, import licenses, and compliance certificates (e.g., CE, UL) are provided to ensure smooth clearance.
Domestic Shipping: For orders within the same country, delivery is via road transport (trucks or trailers) with transit times of 2 to 7 business days, depending on distance. Express delivery (1 to 2 business days) is available for urgent orders, using dedicated couriers with tracked service.
International Shipping: Global customers can choose between sea freight (2 to 6 weeks) and air freight (3 to 7 days). Sea freight is cost-effective for large volumes (full container loads), while air freight is preferred for small orders or urgent projects. The cable is shipped from major ports (e.g., Shanghai, Rotterdam, Houston) with door-to-door or port-to-port options.
Delivery Terms: Customers can select from Incoterms such as EXW (Ex Works), FOB (Free On Board), CIF (Cost, Insurance, and Freight), or DDP (Delivered Duty Paid). EXW requires the customer to arrange pickup from the factory, while DDP includes all transportation, insurance, and customs costs, providing a hassle-free experience.
