LT Aerial Bunched cables, also known as LT AB Cables, are distinct from bare conductor overhead distribution. They are good for distribution of electricity to residential, commercial and industrial units. These cables have overcome limitations of PVC insulated cables such as thermal degradation, poor moisture resistance and thermoplastic nature.

LT AB cables have higher current rating, higher short circuit rating approximately 1.2 times that of PVC. LT AB Cables have lower cost of laying because of comparatively smaller diameter of cable and higher weight. Installation charges are also low as diameter of the cable is comparatively lesser with smaller bending radius, requiring less space. For longer cable length voltage drop, one size lower cables can be used as compared to PVC insulated cable.

AB cables are highly reliable and insulation has been developed to withstand extreme cold and intense sunlight. Disturbance and faults occur five to ten times more often in open wires lines than in AB cable lines. There is no risk in touching the live cable and the insulation reduces the number of short circuits and over voltage faults in overhead cables during thunderstorms. Few hardware accessories are needed which are different for different size of cables. Streets can be lit only at little extra conductor for lighting. The cable can be supplied with one or two insulated conductors for street lighting.

Convenient Usage

• In electricity theft prone areas.
• As replacement of bare lines in rural area & narrow street with limited space.
• As replacement of bare lines where reliabilities of support is of prime importance.
• In hilly terrain here cost of erection of overhead lines or under ground cable becomes very high.
• As reinforcement of existing system with increase in voltage/current carrying capacity.
• For temporary supplies.Advantages

  In comparison with bare overhead distribution line AB Cable has very high reliability in maintaining power services because power and neutral conductors are insulated with the best dielectric, resulting in the following advantages:

  • Less fault rate on account of good protection against line and ground faults by high winding falling trees or birds specially in hilly areas and forests.
  • High insulation resistance to earth in all seasons. Neglible lekage currents and low losses.
  • Multiplexer circuits of power and telephone cables could be in the same set of poles.
  • Better adaptability to laid besides with existing overhead bare conductor system without any interference.
  • High capacitance and low inductance leading to low impedance of lines.
  • Lower voltage drop, higher current carrying capacities vis--vis better voltage regulations.
  • Longer spans and longer distance lines are possible with better system stability.
  • AB cables are much safer than bare conductors.
  • It can be laid in dense vegetation and forest areas.
  • Additional connections can be easily and quickly made with hot line connectors.
  • Overall lines cost is reduced.
  • Maintenance is very convenient.
  • Very difficult to tap the AB cables, thus reducing theft which leads to lower distribution losess.
  • Since, the tension from the current carrying conductor is totally removed by introduction of messenger wire, the operating temperature of the conductor is 90 c as against 75 c thereby allowing AB cable to carry current equivalent to that of bare conductor of the same size.

PVC insulated Single core cables have a wide range of application in machine tools, appliances, control panel, machinery & industries of various nature. The conductors are drawn from bright electrolytic grade copper and are annealed & bunched together which are then insulated with specially formulated, in-house developed PVC compound with high insulation resistance value. The insulation process is carried out on modern, high speed extrusion lines with accuracy, ensuring consistency in performance.

Available Sizes

Below are some of the sizes commonly used by the industry, but we can customize as per clients specifications.

Also known asSteel Wire Armoured Cables, is a power and auxiliary control cable, designed for use in mains supply electricity.

Armoured Cable is designed to have mechanical protection, which is why the cable is often used for external use. The Armour is used to reduce any risk of the cable getting pinched or damaged; the steel is used to protect the armoured cable. These cables are heavy, which makes them extremely difficult to bend; therefore they are most suited to underground cabling or fixed to outdoor walls using cable cleats.

• They have a higher emergency Overload capacity 130C.
• Max. Temperature limit under short circuit conditions for LT XLPE Cables is 250C against 160C PVC Cables. Hence they have higher Short Circuit Rating.
• Insulation Resistance of LT XLPE Cable is excellent & superior to identical PVC Cables.
• They have high corrosion resistance in polluted atmosphere.
• They have better properties of resistance to chemical and corrosive gases.
• They have low installation cost because of light weight dimensions and are far more flexible.
• They have better properties to withstand vibrations, hot impacts.
• Jointing of LT XLPE Cables is easier and quicker.

HT AB Cables are a very novel concept in overhead power distribution, as compared with conventional bare conductor in overhead distribution system, AB cable provides higher safety, reliability, lower power losses and ultimate economy by reducing installation, maintenance and operative cost. This superior system is ideal for rural distribution and especially attractive for installation in difficult terrains such as hilly areas, forest areas & coastal areas etc. These cables are designed, manufactured & tasted as per international specifications. AB cable is also considered for power distribution in congested urban areas with narrow lane and by- lanes. In developing urban complex HT AB cable is a better choice because of its flexibility for re-routing as demanded by changes in urban development plan.
