Underground Armored Cable — SWA/AWA
ZMS manufactures armored cables that are made of high-quality steel or aluminum. We supply high-quality armored cables to the world. We can manufacture a variety of rugged low voltage armored cables or medium voltage armored cables according to British, American, European, and international standards, etc. Armor cables are suitable for applications that are buried directly underground and require additional mechanical protection and superior tensile loading. We are well-known cable manufacturers in the world.
Description of ZMS Cable
Types of underground armored cable are :
SWA (steel wire armored) cable, STA (steel tape armored) cable, AWA (aluminum wire armored), and ATA (aluminum tape armored). It is suitable for underground or outdoor cables with single or multiple core conductors. Like Copper single/multicore armored cable or Aluminum single/multicore armored cable.
The Underground Armored Cable mechanical protection layer can be added to any structure of the cable. To increase the mechanical strength of the cable and improve the ability to prevent corrosion. It is a cable designed for areas subject to mechanical damage and erosion. Can be laid in any way, more suitable for direct buried laying in rocky areas.
Steel Wire Armored Cable — SWA
ZMS’ SWA armored wire and cable offers a full line of rugged low-voltage armored and medium-voltage cables.
These include 2-core, 3-core, 4-core, 5-core, and more cores of armored power cables rated up to 33kv.
The armored cables are designed to provide additional protection against mechanical stresses that can cause damage to the cable.
We offer custom SWA cable services. This includes copper and aluminum conductors according to project needs.
Size: 1.25mm² to 325mm²
Conductors: copper, aluminum
Insulation: PVC, PE, XLPE, RUBBER
Sheath: PVC, PE, LSZH, RUBBER
Rated temperature: 60℃~105℃
Rated voltage: 600V, 1000V
Standard: IEC, BS, JIS, OEM, ODM
Steel Tape Armored Cable — STA
STA cable is a steel tape armored cable.
It is usually used for low voltage and medium voltage transmission lines.
Steel ribbon armored cable has a metal armored layer inside the cable sheath, which is mainly used to prevent the cable from being damaged by external crushing.
We offer custom cable service. This includes copper and aluminum conductors according to project needs.
Size: 1.25mm² to 325mm²
Conductors: copper, aluminum
Insulation: PVC, PE, XLPE, RUBBER
Sheath: PVC, PE, LSZH, RUBBER
Rated temperature: 60℃~105℃
Standard: IEC, BS, JIS, OEM, ODM
Aluminum Wire Armored Cable — AWA
AWA (Aluminum Wire Armored) cable is used for single-core cables because it is non-magnetic. Therefore, when the current passes through the cable, a magnetic field is generated (the higher the voltage, the larger the magnetic field). The magnetic field will induce currents (eddy currents) in the steel armor, which can lead to overheating of the AC system. The non-magnetic aluminum armored cable prevents this from happening.
It is commonly used for primary power and auxiliary control cables in a variety of environments including overhead transmission lines, outdoor, indoor, and underground power systems, and cable ducts.
This series of the armored power cable can be replaced with an MDPE outer sheath instead of PVC to improve abrasion resistance and water resistance, its structure then becomes XLPE/PVC/AWA/MDPE.
Conductor: Copper, aluminum.
Insulation: Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE)
Inner sheath: Polyvinyl chloride (PVC)
Armor: AWA
Outer sheath: PVC, PE, LSZH, MDPE
Aluminum Tape Armored Cable — ATA
ATA armored cable products are used for transmission and distribution lines with voltages up to low and medium voltage. It not only has excellent electrical and mechanical properties but also has strong resistance to chemical corrosion, thermal aging, and environmental stress.
Applicable voltage level 0.6/1kv, 1.8/3KV, 3.6/6KV, 6/10KV, 10KV, 11KV, 15kv, 8.7/15KV, 18/30KV,19/33KV, 26/35KV
Conductor: copper, aluminum.
Insulation: PVC, PE, XLPE, RUBBER
Inner sheath: PVC, PE, LSZH
Armor: AWA
Outer sheath: PVC, PE, LSZH, MDPE
Characteristics of Armored Cables
An armored cable mechanical protection layer can be added to any structure of the cable to increase the mechanical strength of the cable and enhance the erosion resistance. It is a special cable designed to avoid mechanical damage and erosion-prone areas. It can be laid in any way and is suitable for direct burial in rocky areas. Simply put, the armored cable is also known as an underground power cable. The purpose of power line transmission cable with armor layer is not only to enhance the tensile strength, compressive strength, and other mechanical protection to extend the service life. The armor has the necessary resistance to external forces and can also put some rats to tear. To ensure that the power transmission problem is caused through the armor, the bending radius of the armor should be larger, and the armor layer can be grounded to protect the cable.
