Match the size to the calculated load, voltage drop, and installation method. Higher Saudi ambient temperatures and long runs may require a larger size. Youmats can help confirm ampacity for 25, 35, and 70 mm² conductors before purchase.
Yes, armored XLPE/LSHF aluminum cable is commonly used for direct burial where mechanical protection is needed. Check the sheath, armor type, and burial depth. It should also suit outdoor Saudi conditions, including high heat and possible moisture or rodent activity.
The price per meter changes with conductor size, armor, insulation, voltage class, and aluminum market rates. For 35 mm² armored aluminum cable, request an updated Youmats quotation with the exact core count, voltage rating, and delivery city to compare project costs accurately.
Yes. LSHF insulation limits smoke emission and avoids halogen gases when exposed to heat or fire, making it suitable for enclosed spaces, tunnels, metro lines, and high-density buildings. Always verify test certificates and Saudi project specifications.
Confirm compliance with relevant Saudi Electrical Code, SASO requirements, and IEC or equivalent cable standards. For project approval, check voltage rating, conductor size, armor, flame performance, and test reports. Youmats can provide documentation for approved suppliers.
