FAQ

What is the minimum order quantity for the product?
What are the benefits of EPR material?
Longitudinal Water Blocking vs. Lateral Water Blocking?
What are the weight limits for different types of packages?
How Do Water-Blocking Cables Work?
Armored vs. Unarmored Cables?
Armored cables are ideal for direct burial and laying underground, offering protection against environmental factors. Unarmored cables are unsuitable for burial or use in other challenging applications and installations.
Longitudinal Water Blocking vs. Lateral Water Blocking?
A longitudinally water blocking cable is designed with a barrier to prevent the spread of moisture along its length. Longitudinal water blocking stops water from migrating along the cable's core, typically between the conductor strands, insulation layers, or metallic screens. Lateral water blocking ensures that water cannot penetrate the cable in the event that the sheathing is pierced or damaged. Radial water blocking prevents water from penetrating the cable's outer sheath or insulation layers, thereby stopping it from entering the cable structure entirely. Longitudinal water blocking can be achieved through various methods, including the application of water-blocking tapes and powders. These are frequently located on either side of a metallic screen and conductor. Lateral water blocking is typically accomplished by applying a layer of aluminum/polyester tape to the underside of the outer sheath.
What is the operating temperature of the cable?
The operating temperature of a cable is determined by the insulation and sheathing material. PVC has a range of -15°C to 70°C, XLPE can reach up to 90°C, while silicone rubber can handle temperatures from -60°C to 180°C.
How long is the validity period of cold shrink cable accessories?
The validity period for most cold shrink cable accessories is typically 3 years from the date of manufacture, provided they are stored under recommended conditions. These conditions usually include controlled humidity and temperature ranges.
What is the minimum order quantity for the product?
The minimum order quantity for low and medium voltage cables is 200 meters, whereas for high voltage cables, it is 2000 meters. Should the order quantity fall below the MOQ, however, if the factory has stock, we can still supply it.
