XHIOE Cable XHIOE Medium Voltage Power Cable 8.7/15kV (17.5kV) 25mm² – 630mm²

Description

XHIOE are single-core and three-core medium voltage power cables with copper conductors. The cables feature cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation, a copper wire metallic screen, and a polyethylene (PE) outer sheath. They are manufactured in accordance with IEC 60502-2 and IEC 60228. The cable designations follow Portuguese standards. These medium voltage cables are available in the following rated voltages: 3.6/6 kV, 6/10 kV, 8.7/15 kV, 12/20 kV, and 18/30 kV.

XHIOE cable is designed for industrial power distribution within power stations and sub stations. It is suitable for internal or external installations in open air on cable trays, or underground in ducts or directly buried in free draining soil. The polyethylene outer sheath provides a robust barrier with high resistance to abrasion, ultraviolet radiation, and environmental exposure. This cable belongs to the same family as XHIE cables but has a copper wire screen instead of a copper tape screen. It is also available in an aluminium variation LXHIOE
