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.
