Class 2 stranded copper conductor with galvanized steel wire armour beneath the outer PVC sheath, for underground feeds and outdoor runs where the cable needs mechanical protection. Made on the Pilone line in Lahore.
Prices track the daily copper rate. Coil and bulk pricing on request.
Specifications
Conductor resistance per IEC 60228 class 2. Current capacity per BS 7671, installation reference method C (clipped direct), 30°C ambient — the same rating as unarmoured copper cable of this size; the steel wire armour adds mechanical and rodent protection, not extra current capacity. Buried or ducted runs should be assessed separately. Verify sizing with a licensed electrician for your installation.

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
Underground feeds
From the meter to a house, or between buildings. The armour resists soil pressure and digging damage.
Industrial plants
Cable trays and floor runs where machines or vehicles can hit the cable.
Outdoor runs
Along walls or fences where rodent damage is a risk.
Other armoured sizes
Current capacity with two loaded conductors, BS 7671 reference method C, 30°C ambient. Same class 2 copper construction and SWA armour in every size.
Frequently asked
What is the price of 25mm armoured cable in Pakistan?
The price moves with the daily copper rate, 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 25mm armoured cable used for?
Underground feeds, industrial plant runs, and outdoor installations where the cable needs mechanical protection. It carries 112 A with two loaded conductors on method C — the same rating as unarmoured 25mm copper cable. The steel wire armour adds protection, not extra capacity.
Armoured vs unarmoured cable — which do I need for 25mm?
Choose armoured cable when the run is underground, outdoors, or anywhere it can be struck or dug into — the steel wire layer resists impact and rodent damage. For indoor conduit or tray runs with no mechanical risk, 25mm 2 core standard cable costs less at the same rating. See armoured vs unarmoured cable.
