Aerial Bunch Cable, Application : Industrial

Trend is moving towards using ABC cables in place of underground cable in power distribution network. ABC are much lighter, economically feasible and higher current rating of at least 10 % more than underground armoured cables. ABC are either Low Tension or High Tension Grade. ABC aluminium conductors are mainly XLPE insulated and each core are twisted round a aluminium alloy bare stranded conductors called MESSENGER. The Messenger conductor facilitates suspension of the cable on hooks and clamps in street lighting poles.
