NCI XLPE/PVC Aluminium Conductor Cable – Unarmoured & Armoured | IEC 60502-1
NCI XLPE Insulated, PVC Sheathed Aluminium Conductor Cables to IEC 60502-1 at 0.6/1 kV combine the thermal performance of XLPE insulation (90°C) with the cost advantages of aluminium, made by National Cables Industry, Sharjah, with ESMA certification. The range covers 1-core (16–630mm²), 2-core (16–35mm²), 3-core and 4-core (16–500mm²) in unarmoured and armoured (SWA, STA) variants, with a durable PVC outer sheath for mechanical protection and moisture resistance. Aluminium conductors make these cables significantly lighter and less expensive than copper for long runs and large installations. Ideal for main feeders, substation connections, large industrial plants, and infrastructure projects across the UAE and GCC where aluminium is technically acceptable.
NCI XLPE Insulated, PVC Sheathed Aluminium Conductor Cables to IEC 60502-1 at 0.6/1 kV combine the thermal performance of XLPE insulation (90°C operating temperature) with the cost advantages of aluminium conductors, making them a highly economical solution for large power infrastructure projects in the UAE.
Manufactured by National Cables Industry, Sharjah UAE — ESMA certified — the range covers 1-core (16–630mm²), 2-core (16–35mm²), 3-core (16–500mm²), and 4-core (16–500mm²) in unarmoured and armoured (SWA, STA) variants. Aluminium conductors make these cables significantly lighter and less expensive than copper equivalents for long cable runs and large installations.
Ideal for main feeders, sub-station connections, large industrial plants, and infrastructure projects across UAE and GCC where aluminium conductors are technically acceptable and cost efficiency is a priority.
