🏗 ️ Technical Specification of Aluminium Cables (IS 7098: Part 1 – 1988) When specifying aluminium cables, you will often come across codes like A2XWY . This code represents the construction, insulation, armouring, and sheath of the cable. 🔑 Cable Nomenclature Codes Code Meaning A Aluminium Conductor 2X XLPE (Cross-linked Polyethylene) Insulation Y PVC Outer Sheath W Steel Round Wire Armour F Steel Strip Armour WW Double Steel Round Wire Armour FF Double Steel Strip Armour Wa Non-Magnetic Round Wire Armour Fa Non-Magnetic Strip Armour AW Aluminium Wire Armour 👉 Example: A2XWY = Aluminium conductor + XLPE insulation + Steel round wire armour + PVC outer sheath. 📌 Note: For Copper Cables , no pref...

📘 Cable Nomenclature Explained (PVC & XLPE Cables) Cable designations like YWY, AYFY, A2XCY might look confusing at first glance. But once you understand the logic behind each letter , reading technical specs becomes straightforward. 1. Basic Conductor Material ·          A → Aluminium conductor ·          (If “A” is absent, it means Copper conductor) 2. Insulation Material ·          Y → TROPODUR = PVC insulation ·          2X → TROPOTHEN-X = XLPE insulation 3. Armouring Types ·          W → Round Steel Wire Armouring ·          WW → Double Round Steel Wire Armouring ·          F → Flat (formed) Steel Strip Armouring ·       ...
