What is the difference between armored cable and Non-Armored Cable?

As a China Cable Supplier, share with you.

The cable is composed of conductor, conductor insulation, and outer protective layer of the cable. The main difference between armored cables and non-armored cables is whether there is an armored layer in the structure. The metal materials of the armored layer of Jinhaotai cable are divided into steel tape armor, thin steel wire armor and thick steel wire armor.

Non-Armoured XLPE Cable

The difference between armored cable and non-armoured cable

It is wound with steel tape or steel wire to protect the cable from damage and damage by external mechanical forces; it can also prevent rats and termites from biting, so as not to cause power transmission problems through the armor. The armor has a large bending radius and the armor The layer can be grounded to protect the cable.

The role of armored cables

Armoring means that the outermost protective layer of the cable is wound with steel tape or steel wire to protect the cable from damage by external mechanical forces; while the cross-linked cable means that the outer insulating layer of the cable conductor is made of cross-linked polyethylene. Armored XLPE cable can be used, that is, a cable insulated with cross-linked material and protected by an outer layer of armor.

The armored cable is wrapped with steel tape or steel wire to protect the cable from damage and damage by external mechanical forces; it can also prevent rats and termites from biting, so as not to cause power transmission problems through the armor. The armor has a large bending radius. , The armor layer can be grounded to protect the cable.

The outer protective layer of the armored cable is wound with steel tape or steel wire to protect the cable from damage by external mechanical forces; while the cross-linked cable refers to the outer insulating layer of the cable conductor is made of cross-linked polyethylene material. Armored XLPE cable can be used, that is, a cable insulated with cross-linked material and protected by an armored outer layer.

The price of the armored cable is about 12-15% higher than the general market price of the unarmored cable. The cable already has good external protection, such as the use of string steel pipe protection, or laying in a place with an excellent operating environment, from the perspective of engineering economy, ordinary cables can be used without armor.
