10mm 4 Core Flexible Cable

4.8/5 · 127 buyer ratings

PILONE CABLES TECHNICAL TEAM

Four 10mm² class 5 cores — three phases and a neutral — for three-phase equipment that does not stay in one place. A generator tail into a changeover panel, a trailing lead to a site board, the tail on a machine that gets shifted between bays. 57 A with three conductors loaded, which is about 39 kVA on a 400 V supply. 80 strands of 0.40 mm per core, 1.91 Ω/km, 4.4 mV/A/m, 300/500 V. Drawn on the Pilone line in Lahore.

Check the coil before you pay for it

Every coil leaves our factory with a QR code printed on the packaging. Scan it and the factory record for that batch opens: brand, cable size, batch number, year of manufacture and conductor. Compare the batch number on screen with the one printed on your coil — if the two do not match, it did not come from us.

Worked example, using the 4.4 mV/A/m in the table. A 45 A three-phase machine on a 25 m trailing lead loses 45 × 25 × 4.4 ÷ 1000 = 5.0 V — 1.2% of 400 V, well inside the 5% BS 7671 allows on a power circuit, which is 20 V here. At the cable's full 57 A that 20 V budget lasts to about 80 m: 20 ÷ (57 × 4.4 ÷ 1000) = 79.7 m. A three-phase lead buys roughly twice the distance a single-phase one does on the same conductor, because the budget is 5% of 400 V rather than 5% of 220 V.

Where this cable belongs

Three-phase generator tails

Set to changeover panel, three phases and a neutral in one sheath. 57 A covers a set of about 39 kVA at 400 V.

Portable three-phase machines

Compressors, welding plant and mixers that get moved between bays and need the neutral as well as the three phases.

Site distribution trailing leads

Feeding a temporary board on a construction site, on a lead that is run out and re-coiled every day.

Current capacity depends on how the cable is installed and how it's coiled or bundled. Derate for high ambient temperature and long trailing runs. Have a licensed electrician confirm the size for your load — or start with the cable size calculator.

Frequently asked

What is the price of 10mm 4 core flexible cable in Pakistan?
The price changes with the daily copper rate. We sell factory-direct from Lahore, below dealer rates. Message us on WhatsApp at +92 319 4262451 for today's price per meter.
What is 10mm 4 core flexible cable used for?
Portable 3-phase power: generator tails, portable 3-phase machinery, and site power distribution leads. Rated around 57 A as a 3-loaded-conductor circuit, method C.
How many kVA will 10mm 4 core flexible cable carry?
About 39 kVA on a 400 V three-phase supply. The arithmetic is 1.732 × 400 × 57 ÷ 1000, where 57 A is the BS 7671 method C figure with three loaded conductors at 30°C. Coiled on a drum, bunched with other leads, or worked in summer heat, it carries less than 57 A and therefore less than 39 kVA.
What is the difference between 10mm 4 core flexible and standard cable?
The conductor and the sheath rating, not the copper area. This one is class 5 — 80 fine strands per core, rated 300/500 V, built to be coiled and dragged. 10mm 4 core standard cable is class 2, seven thick strands per core, rated 450/750 V, and meant to be fixed once. Both carry 57 A on three loaded conductors. Moving cable takes flexible; fixed wiring takes standard.
Should I use standard cable instead of flexible?
Use flexible cable where the cable needs to move, coil, or trail — generators, portable machinery. For a fixed run in conduit or clipped to a wall, standard cable is the normal choice.
