LT Power Cables

KEI INDUSTRIES LIMITED is manufacturing LT Power Cables with PVC or XLPE insulation of voltage grade upto 3.3 KV conforming to various Indian and International Standard Specifications. KEI also manufactures other types of cables as listed at the end of this catalogue.

XLPE means cross-linked polyethylene or vulcanized polyethylene. The basic material is low density polyethylene. Polyethylene is a thermoplastic material consisting of long chain of hydrocarbon molecules. At elevated temperatures these molecules tend to move relative to one another so that the material becomes increasingly deformable and will eventually melt at the temperature around 110oC.

• Dielectric losses are very small.
• Higher current carrying capacity.
• Higher short circuit rating 250oC. as against 160oC for PVC.
• KEI XLPE can retain flexibility down upto - 40oC.
• Jointing and Termination is easy.
• Light in weight.
• They are not prone to fatigue damages due to vibrations or loading cycles.
• Has better resistance to most chemicals, oils, acids, etc.
• Can be installed along cable routes without elevation limitations.
