 BS 5467 XLPE Insulated SWA/AWA Armoured Low Voltage Power & Auxiliary Control Cables

  • Rated Voltage: 600/1000V

  • Core Options: 1/2/3/4/5/7/12/19/27/37 cores available

  • Governing Standard: British Standard BS 5467, compatible with IEC 60502-1, BS EN 60228

1. Layer-by-Layer Cable Construction

  1. ConductorClass 2 stranded annealed plain copper conductor (BS 6360 / IEC 60228), low DC resistance, stable power transmission; tinned copper optional for anti-corrosion in damp/chemical environments. Single core adopts AWA Aluminium Wire Armour to avoid eddy current loss; multi-core uses SWA Galvanized Steel Wire Armour.

  2. XLPE Cross-linked Polyethylene InsulationGP8 grade XLPE insulation, long-term working temperature up to 90℃, short-circuit withstand temperature up to 280℃. Excellent dielectric performance, ultra-low dielectric loss, high insulation resistance, ageing-resistant and heat-resistant, carrying higher ampacity than traditional PVC insulated cables.

  3. PVC Bedding LayerExtruded PVC inner bedding cushions the armour layer, prevents armour piercing the insulation core during bending and installation, improves overall cable roundness and structural stability.

  4. Armour Layer (Core Protection Structure)

  • Multi-core: SWA Steel Wire Armour — strong resistance against compression, impact, heavy load crushing, rodent & termite gnawing

  • Single-core: AWA Aluminium Wire Armour — eliminates magnetic hysteresis loss, reduces heating under AC operation

  1. Outer SheathStandard black PVC outer sheath: UV-resistant, abrasion-resistant, moisture-proof, resistant to weak acid & alkali corrosion.Optional upgrade: LSZH low smoke zero halogen outer sheath for fire safety critical projects.

  2. Core Colour Coding

  • 2 core: Brown + Blue

  • 3 core: Brown / Black / Grey

  • 5 core: Brown/Black/Blue/Grey + Green/Yellow earth core

  • ≥7 cores: White cores with black sequential number printing, easy on-site termination & phase identification

2. (1) Superior Electrical & Thermal Performance

  • XLPE insulation delivers higher current-carrying capacity, lower power loss during long-distance power distribution, effectively reducing energy consumption

  • Wide operating temperature range: fixed installation -15℃ ~ +90℃; customized low-temperature version down to -40℃ for cold-region projects

  • Stable electrical properties under high temperature and long-term overload, long service life over 30 years

(2) Ultra-Reliable Mechanical Protection (Biggest Highlight)

SWA galvanized steel wire armour enables multiple tough installation methods:✅ Direct burial underground✅ Cable tray, conduit, wall embedding✅ Indoor, outdoor overhead, industrial trench layingPerfectly solves mechanical damage risks from construction extrusion, ground settlement, sharp object piercing and rodent biting, greatly lowering post-installation maintenance cost.

(3) Flexible Installation & Easy Termination

  • Clear standardized core colour/number marking, greatly reduces wiring error rate on site

  • Reasonable stranding structure ensures good flexibility; minimum bending radius: 6× cable OD for small sizes, 8× OD for ≥25mm² large cross-section

  • Mature jointing and termination technology, compatible with standard UK cable glands and terminals

(4) Strong Environmental Adaptability

  • PVC sheath resists UV radiation, rainwater, damp, slight chemical splash and atmospheric ageing

  • Flame retardant performance meets IEC 60332-1 single vertical burning test, stops flame spread

  • Optional LSZH version: low smoke emission, zero halogen toxic gas release during combustion, ideal for tunnels, underground stations, public buildings and enclosed crowded spaces

(5) Standardized British System, Widely Recognized Globally

Follows classic UK BS 5467 standard, fully accepted by UK local engineering, MEP contractors, consulting firms and international EPC projects; widely specified in Commonwealth countries, Middle East, Southeast Asia, Africa overseas construction bidding projects.

3. Typical Application Scenarios

  1. Industrial plant main power distribution, workshop equipment power supply & auxiliary control circuits

  2. Commercial buildings, shopping malls, hospitals, schools fixed wiring underground & in-wall

  3. Infrastructure: roads, bridges, pumping stations, sewage treatment plants direct burial wiring

  4. Overseas EPC projects compliant with British electrical specifications, UK local construction sites

  5. Mines, factories, yards where mechanical impact and rodent damage risks existManufactured strictly to BS 5467 British standard, BASEC certified, fully accepted for UK & Commonwealth project tendering

  6. XLPE insulation 90℃ rated, higher ampacity, low power loss, long service lifespan

  7. SWA steel wire armour for multi-core / AWA aluminium armour for single core, heavy mechanical protection, allow direct burial installation

  8. UV & abrasion resistant PVC outer sheath, optional LSZH low smoke zero halogen upgrade for fire safety

  9. Standard colour-coded cores, easy identification and reliable on-site termination

  10. Wide temperature adaptability, suitable for indoor, outdoor, underground and harsh industrial environments

BS 5467 SWA Armoured XLPE Low Voltage Cable – British standard compliant heavy-duty power distribution solution with outstanding mechanical protection for underground and industrial harsh conditions.
