Class 2 stranded copper conductor with a galvanized steel wire armour layer between PVC insulation and outer sheath, for industrial distribution and underground feeds that need 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 and voltage drop per BS 7671, installation reference method C (clipped direct), 30°C ambient, PVC insulation, taken as the nearest published reference for armoured construction. Voltage rating and armour build are typical for PVC/SWA/PVC cable — confirm the exact construction with Pilone Cables. Derate for grouping and higher ambient temperature. Verify sizing with a licensed electrician for your installation.
