FAQ

What is the length tolerance for cables?

Flame Retardant Cables VS Fire Resistant Cables?

What is the minimum order quantity for the product?

What is the application of Armored vs. Unarmored Cables?

What is the validity period for the offer of cable?

What are the weight limits for different types of packages?

The weight limit for a wooden drum or steel wooden is 5,000 kg, and for a steel drum, it is 10,000 kg.

Why do cable prices vary significantly among suppliers within the same region?

Cable prices vary due to differences in supplier strategies, competition, raw materials, and production processes, as well as after-sales services, including installation, equipment, and ongoing support.

What is the purpose of a metallic shield in MV and HV cables?

Medium and high voltage power cables, typically those in circuits exceeding 2kV, usually feature a shield layer made of copper or aluminum tape. Similar to their use in low voltage cables, metallic wires and tapes are employed to prevent electromagnetic interference. These shields effectively neutralize or significantly diminish the field currents surrounding the conductor or core. The capacitive and inductive charging currents induced under normal operating conditions are subsequently grounded by the metallic screen.

What are the benefits of EPR material?

EPR is widely used as an insulation material for electric cables due to its high dielectric strength, and it also serves as a sheathing material with excellent ozone and weathering resistance. EPR has a wide thermal range, typically spanning from -55°C to 150°C. Unlike other organic rubbers, there is no need to tin the copper conductor to prevent deterioration of the rubber.

Flame Retardant Cables VS Fire Resistant Cables?

Both types of cables are crucial in enhancing the likelihood of escape and survival in the event of a fire and are often confused with one another. However, there is a fundamental distinction between flame retardant cables and fire resistant cables. Flame retardant cables are engineered to inhibit the spread of fire to adjacent areas. On the other hand, fire resistant cables are specifically designed to preserve circuit integrity and ensure functionality during a fire, under specified conditions, aiding both evacuees and firefighters.
