3+2 Core PVC Cable Copper Conductor Steel Tape Armoured Power Cable

3+2 Core PVC Cable Copper Conductor Steel Tape Armoured Power Cable

Product Overview

The 3+2 core PVC cable is designed for electrical installations requiring three main cores and two additional cores within a single cable. Manufactured with copper conductors, PVC insulation and a PVC outer sheath, this cable can be supplied with steel tape armour (STA) for additional mechanical protection.

The 3+2 core configuration allows the main and auxiliary conductors to be incorporated into one cable, making it a practical option for specified power distribution and auxiliary circuit applications.

The cable construction, conductor sizes and voltage rating should be selected according to the electrical load, installation conditions and applicable project standards.

Zhongdong Cable Co., Ltd. supplies copper conductor cables for industrial, commercial and infrastructure projects. Cable specifications can be reviewed against your technical requirements before quotation.

Cable Construction

• Conductor: Stranded copper conductor

• Core Configuration: 3 main cores + 2 additional cores

• Insulation: PVC (polyvinyl chloride)

• Inner Sheath: PVC or specified bedding material

• Armour: Steel Tape Armour (STA)

• Outer Sheath: PVC

• Rated Voltage: According to the specified cable design

• Core Identification: According to the applicable standard or project specification

The cross-sectional areas of the three main cores and two additional cores may differ. Please specify the required conductor sizes for both core groups when requesting a quotation.

Technical Specifications

Applications of 3+2 Core PVC Cable

The 3+2 core copper PVC cable can be considered for electrical installations where a combination of main and auxiliary conductors is required in one cable assembly.

Typical applications include:

• Industrial electrical installations: Power distribution and auxiliary circuits in factories and production facilities.

• Commercial buildings: Electrical installations requiring a specified multi-core cable configuration.

• Power and auxiliary circuits: Applications where the conductor arrangement matches the system design.

• Infrastructure projects: Fixed cable installations in industrial and public infrastructure facilities.

• Armoured cable installations: Cable routes where steel tape armour is specified for additional mechanical protection.

The final cable selection depends on the function of each core, the conductor sizes, the voltage rating and the installation environment.

Key Features of Copper PVC Cable

Copper Conductors:Copper conductors provide good electrical conductivity and are widely used in power distribution and electrical wiring applications. The conductor cross-sectional area should be selected according to the required current capacity and installation conditions.

PVC Insulation:PVC insulation provides electrical insulation for each conductor. It is commonly used in low voltage power and control cables, subject to the cable's specified voltage rating and operating conditions.

Steel Tape Armour:Steel tape armour (STA) provides mechanical protection against external forces that may occur during cable installation and service. It is commonly used in armoured power cables designed for fixed installations.

PVC Outer Sheath:The PVC outer sheath protects the cable assembly during handling, installation and normal service. Where additional properties such as UV resistance, oil resistance, flame retardancy or low-smoke performance are required, these should be specified separately.

Custom Cable Specifications

For industrial and commercial projects, cable specifications often vary according to the electrical design and installation requirements.

Zhongdong Cable can review project requirements for:

• Main and auxiliary conductor cross-sections

• Copper conductor construction

• PVC insulation and outer sheath

• Steel tape armour requirements

• Rated voltage and applicable standards

• Cable length, marking and packing

Providing the complete cable specification helps ensure that the proposed product matches the intended application.

3+2 Core PVC Cable for Project Procurement

When purchasing 3+2 core PVC cables for a project, it is important to confirm the conductor sizes, voltage rating, applicable standard and function of each core.

For example, the three main cores may be used for the primary electrical circuit, while the two additional cores may serve another function defined by the system design. Their intended use should be confirmed rather than assumed.

Steel tape armouring should also be selected according to the required mechanical protection and installation conditions.

For bulk orders, distributors, electrical contractors and EPC companies should provide a cable schedule or technical specification so that the cable construction can be checked before production.
