| Armour | Galvanized steel wire armour (SWA) between inner and outer PVC sheath |
| Conductor copper weight | ≈ 844.6 kg/km |
| Typical use | Main incoming feeders and large industrial supply runs |
Voltage drop sets the longest run before lights dim and motors struggle. BS 7671 allows 3% on lighting circuits and 5% on other circuits; on a 230 V single-phase supply that is 6.9 V and 11.5 V. At this cable's 0.46 mV/A/m, the longest one-way run is:
| Load | Lighting circuit (3%) | Other circuits (5%) |
|---|---|---|
| 125 A | 120 m | 200 m |
| 160 A | 93 m | 156 m |
| 200 A | 75 m | 125 m |
| 250 A | 60 m | 100 m |
Check your own load and length with the voltage drop calculator. Every 100 m of each core holds 84.5 kg of copper; cable is priced from the day's copper rate, which is why each size up costs more.
| Size | Current capacity, 2 loaded | Voltage drop | Copper per 100 m of core |
|---|---|---|---|
| 70 mm² | 213 A | 0.63 mV/A/m | 62.2 kg |
| 95 mm² (this cable) | 258 A | 0.46 mV/A/m | 84.5 kg |
Current capacity with two loaded conductors, BS 7671 reference method C, 30°C ambient. Same class 2 steel wire armoured construction in every size.
