Product description
3 core stranded copper electrical cable (CU/XLPE/SWA/PVC), produced by Riyadh Cables Company, Armored with layer of steel wires (SWA) to give it mechanical strength to protect it from external pressures that fall on the cable. Insulated with XLPE (cross-linked polyethylene) which provides a unique combination of strength, flexibility and reliability making them suitable for a diverse range of applications. It can withstand high temperatures up to 90°C for extended periods without compromising performance. The cable also withstands harsh environmental conditions, including moisture, corrosion and chemicals, making it ideal for outdoor use. Chloride-free, making it environmentally friendly. It is also jacketed with a high-quality PVC (polyvinyl chloride) outer sheath that provides additional protection against corrosion, heat and moisture damage. XLPE cable is commonly used extensively in power transmission and distribution systems in homes, buildings, offices and industrial applications where there is a risk of mechanical damage. Available in different shapes, sizes and conductor ratings to meet diverse application requirements.

Why are SWA Armored Cables Suitable for Projects in Saudi Arabia?
When searching for SWA Armored Cables, the goal is often to obtain a cable that can withstand shocks and pressure during installation and in exposed or friction-prone paths. The SWA (Steel Wires Armoring) provides the cable with higher mechanical durability compared to unarmored cables, making it a popular choice in construction sites and electrical work that requires additional protection for the conductor.
Guide to Choosing SWA Armored Cables (Before Purchase)
- Ensure Voltage and Rating: This product is a low voltage cable rated at 600/1000 volts.
- Select the Appropriate Insulation: XLPE insulation is suitable for operation up to 90°C and is widely used in distribution within buildings and projects.
- Determine the Number of Cores and Cross-Section: This cable has 3 cores with a cross-section of 50 mm² per core (50×3 mm²) to meet specific load requirements according to the engineer's design.
- Check the Conductor Shape: Round Stranded (rm) helps with flexibility during pulling and installation.
- Standard Compliance: Suitable for those looking for a cable compliant with the IEC 60502-1 standard within the product specifications.
Brief Installation Guidelines for SWA Armored Cables
- It is recommended that installation be carried out by a qualified electrician, adhering to safety instructions.
- Before pulling, ensure the cable path is suitable and reduce sharp edges to avoid scratching the PVC sheath.
- When terminating, ensure proper handling of the SWA armoring according to the approved joint components for the site.
- Check the length of the roll: this product is 500 meters long for quantity planning and reducing waste on site.
