NCI XLPE/PVC Copper Cable – Unarmoured & Armoured (SWA/STA/AWA/ATA) | IEC 60502-1
NCI XLPE/PVC copper cable IEC 60502-1, 90°C, 0.6/1kV. 1–5 core, 1.5–1000mm². Unarmoured & armoured. ESMA & BASEC certified for UAE power projects. Aswan Elect.
NCI XLPE Insulated, PVC Sheathed Copper Cables to IEC 60502-1 at 0.6/1 kV are produced by National Cables Industry, Sharjah UAE, carrying ESMA Emirates Quality Mark and BASEC certifications. With a 90°C continuous operating temperature rating, these XLPE cables deliver superior performance over PVC insulated alternatives in the demanding thermal conditions of the UAE.
Available in 1-core (1.5mm²–1000mm²), 2-core (1.5–35mm²), 3-core (1.5–500mm²), 4-core (1.5–500mm²), and 5-core (1.5–70mm²) configurations, the range covers both unarmoured (for protected indoor environments) and armoured variants — SWA, STA, AWA, and ATA — for direct burial and exposed outdoor applications.
These IEC 60502-1 XLPE cables are the benchmark product for high-performance power distribution in UAE industrial facilities, commercial towers, infrastructure projects, and utility networks meeting DEWA, SEWA, ADDC, and international standards.
