XLPE cables

Previously about XLPE cables We talked. In this article, we will discuss more about this cable.

Crosslink polyethylene cables, abbreviated as PEX or XLPE, are advanced high-voltage cables that are widely used today and are made from the carbon linkage of the main polyethylene chain, which restricts movement. The chains are relative to each other.
Therefore, by applying heat or other energies, the structure of the network does not change and polyethylene shows the best properties at room temperature and above.. This type of wire and cable is with copper or aluminum conductor, which is in the voltage level of 1 to 36 kV..

Due to the lowest dielectric loss of XLPE cables, for 250 Volt to 500 KV are used.

As a fireproof cable, used underwater, on trays and ducts.
As well as the possibility of normal use in 90 Degrees Celsius, emergency at 130 And short time in 250 They have degrees Celsius.

Everything about XLPE cables

Due to the possibility of using cables with xlpe insulation at higher temperatures (90 C) Compared to cables with pvc insulation (70 C), More electric current can be passed through the conductor of this type of cable, or in other words, for one application, a cable with a lower cross section can be used, which will have a lower cost than a cable with pvc insulation..

For example, in terms of application, cable 1*70 mm² with pvc insulation equivalent to cable 1*50 mm² with xlpe insulation.
