Current capacity depends on how the cable is installed. Derate for conduit, grouping, and high ambient temperature. Have a licensed electrician confirm the size for your load and run length — or start with the cable size calculator.

Where this cable belongs

Three-phase distribution

Feeder runs carrying three phases and neutral.

Larger submains

Meter-to-board runs above the load a 10mm conductor can carry.

Mid-size solar strings

Array-to-inverter runs where DC/AC current calls for a larger conductor.

Available in 2 and 4 core

2 CORE · 66 A

16mm 2 Core

Line and neutral. The standard single-phase aluminium submain.

4 CORE · 59 A

16mm 4 Core

Three phases and neutral. Three loaded conductors bring the rating down to 59 A.

Other aluminium sizes

Current capacity with two loaded conductors, BS 7671 reference method C, 30°C ambient. Same class 2 aluminium construction in every size.

Frequently asked

What is the price of 16mm aluminium cable in Pakistan?

The price moves with the daily aluminium and copper rates, so we quote it the day you order. We sell factory-direct from Lahore, with no dealer margin on top. Message us on WhatsApp for today's price per meter.

What is 16mm aluminium cable used for?

Three-phase distribution feeders and larger submains. It carries 66 A with two loaded conductors on method C, and 59 A with three loaded conductors.

Should I use copper instead of 16mm aluminium cable?

Aluminium is lighter and lower-cost per run but needs a larger cross-section than copper for the same current. Our 16mm 2 core standard copper cable is rated 85 A on the same method, so it carries more current at the same nominal size. See copper vs aluminium cable.
