What is Power Cable?
A power cable is an electrical cable, an assembly of one or more electrical conductors, usually held together with an overall sheath. The assembly is used for transmission of electrical power. Power cables may be installed as permanent wiring within buildings, buried in the ground, run overhead, or exposed.

Types of Power Cable
Power cables are used for bulk transmission of alternating and direct current power, especially using high-voltage cable. Electrical cables are extensively used in building wiring for lighting, power and control circuits permanently installed in buildings.

Power cables consist of at least two conducting wires and an outer protective jacket. Following are the types of power cable

  • Coaxial Cable
  • Ribbon Cable
  • Twisted Pair Cable
  • Shielded Cable

Power Cable Applications
Power cables are used for a wide range of applications in the electrical distribution system such as:

  • Connection between Transformer and switchgear
  • Connection between Switchgear and individual load
  • Connection between Generator and transformer
  • Underground cables for utility distribution network in Urban areas
  • Submarine cables for transmission purpose
  • Cables in Ships, Wind mills, Buildings

Voltage Ranges Supported
Power cables are mainly used for:

  • Low Voltages (LV) < 1 kV
  • Medium Voltages (MV) > 1 kV and < 33 kV
  • However, power cables are sometimes also used for Extra High Voltage (EHV) up to 400 kV.

Pratidhi Advantages for Power Cable
Pratidhi can supply power cables with low minimum production quantities and competitive lead times. Pratidhi can assist in the design of the perfect Power Cable for the intended application.
