Orbit LT (Low Tension) cables with XLPE insulation are commonly used in electrical power distribution systems. These cables are designed to operate at voltages up to 1.1 kV and are suitable for residential, commercial, and industrial applications
⚹XLPE stands for Cross-Linked Polyethylene, a thermoset material known for its excellent electrical, thermal, and mechanical properties.
⚹It offers higher temperature resistance (up to 90°C under normal operation and 250°C under short-circuit conditions) compared to PVC-insulated cables.
⚹XLPE is resistant to moisture, chemicals, and environmental stresses, making it suitable for underground or outdoor installations.
⚹Provides superior insulation, reducing the risk of electrical leakage or breakdown.
⚹Easier to handle and install due to the flexible insulation and construction.
⚹Retains properties over a wide temperature range, ensuring performance in harsh conditions.
⚹XLPE cables are lighter and more compact, reducing transportation and installation costs.
