Shanghai Shenghua Cable 3.5KV Five Core Stranded XLPE Insulated Power Cable
Five-Core Stranded Copper Conductor XLPE Insulated Power Cable 5Cx185 SQMM
Powering Complex Networks: Shanghai Shenghua’s 5-Core XLPE Cables for Industrial Reliability
In mission-critical electrical systems—from automated factories to high-rise power distribution—stable and safe energy transmission is non-negotiable. Shanghai Shenghua Cable Group engineers resilience with its 5Cx185 SQMM XLPE Insulated Power Cable, featuring stranded copper conductors, multi-layer protection, and industry-leading thermal performance for 0.6/1kV applications where voltage stability and safety are paramount.
The 5-Core Advantage: Precision Engineering for Demanding Loads
Shenghua’s 5-core design delivers unmatched balance for complex power networks:
- Conductor Excellence:
- 185mm² Stranded Copper (IEC 60228 Class 2) ensures optimal conductivity (0.0991 Ω/km) and flexibility—critical for high-current phases (3 cores) + neutral/earth lines (2 cores)
- Low Impedance: 18% lower resistance than aluminum equivalents, minimizing energy loss in long-run installations
- 185mm² Stranded Copper (IEC 60228 Class 2) ensures optimal conductivity (0.0991 Ω/km) and flexibility—critical for high-current phases (3 cores) + neutral/earth lines (2 cores)
- Triple-Protection Insulation:
- XLPE Core: Withstands 250°C short-circuit spikes (5 sec) and continuous 90°C operation—40% higher thermal tolerance than PVC
- FR-PVC Sheath: Flame-retardant (GB/T 18380-3) suppresses fire propagation in tunnels or industrial plants
- XLPE Core: Withstands 250°C short-circuit spikes (5 sec) and continuous 90°C operation—40% higher thermal tolerance than PVC
- Mechanical Resilience:
- 15× Diameter Bending Radius (vs. 20× for single-core) enables agile routing in congested ducts or cable trays
- 15× Diameter Bending Radius (vs. 20× for single-core) enables agile routing in congested ducts or cable trays
