(III) Material and Style

  1. Conductor Material

The Cable Conductor usually uses high - purity copper. Copper has excellent electrical conductivity, which can effectively reduce losses during power transmission and improve transmission efficiency. At the same time, Copper Conductors have good ductility and mechanical strength, and can withstand a certain degree of bending and stretching during cable laying and use, and are not easy to break.
High - purity copper can also reduce the impact of impurities on conductivity and ensure stable current transmission. After strict processing technology, the surface of the conductor is smooth, which can reduce friction with the insulation layer and ensure the integrity of the insulation layer.
  1. Insulation Layer Material

The insulation layer is made of cross - linked polyethylene (XLPE), which has many advantages. It has excellent temperature resistance and can work for a long time in the temperature range of - 40℃ to 90℃. Its insulation performance will not be affected in cold northern winters, hot southern summers, or industrial environments with temperature fluctuations.
It has excellent insulation performance, with a small dielectric constant and large insulation resistance, which can effectively prevent current leakage and reduce the risk of electric leakage. Moreover, XLPE material has strong anti - aging performance, and is not easy to crack or harden after long - term use, so it has a long service life. At the same time, it also has good chemical corrosion resistance, can resist the erosion of some chemical substances, and is suitable for use in a variety of environments.
  1. Sheath Layer Material

The material selection of the sheath layer needs to meet the requirements of N2xy protection level, and usually adopts materials with good mechanical properties and weather resistance, such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC) with a specific formula or other synthetic materials. This material can provide reliable protection for the cable, making it have the performance of resisting mechanical impact, and can reduce damage to the internal structure when subjected to external forces such as collision and extrusion.
Its ultraviolet resistance makes it not easy to age or crack when exposed to sunlight for a long time outdoors. The moisture resistance ensures that the cable will not be affected by moisture in humid environments, such as underground and outdoor in rainy seasons. The sheath layer also has a certain flame - retardant performance, which can delay combustion when encountering an open flame, buying time for safety rescue.
  1. Style Design

The cable adopts a five - core structure and is round in shape with a regular appearance. The five cores are evenly distributed in the sheath and arranged compactly, which not only saves space but also ensures the insulation distance between each core. Cables of different specifications differ in diameter and can be visually distinguished.
The cable has moderate Flexibility, which is convenient for bending and laying, and can adapt to different laying paths, such as pipe threading and beam winding. The color of the sheath layer is usually dark colors such as black or gray, which is not only resistant to dirt but also can resist ultraviolet radiation to a certain extent.

(IV) Production Process

  1. Conductor Manufacturing

For conductor manufacturing, copper materials are first strictly screened to ensure that their purity meets the standard. After that, the copper material is made into copper rods through smelting, billet casting and other processes. The copper rod is drawn into Copper Wires of the required diameter through wire drawing equipment. During the wire drawing process, the wire drawing speed and mold precision must be controlled to ensure that the diameter of the copper wire is uniform and the surface is smooth.
Multiple copper wires are stranded to form a conductor. During stranding, a specific stranding method is adopted to make the copper wires arranged tightly and evenly, so as to enhance the mechanical strength and flexibility of the conductor. After stranding, the conductor is annealed. Through heating and cooling, the internal stress of the conductor is eliminated, and its electrical conductivity and ductility are improved.
  1. Insulation Layer Extrusion

Before extruding the insulation layer, the XLPE material needs to be pretreated to remove moisture and impurities to avoid affecting the insulation performance. The treated material is sent to the extruder and melted and plasticized at high temperature. The melted XLPE material is evenly coated on the surface of the conductor through an extrusion die to form an insulation layer.
During the extrusion process, the extrusion temperature, pressure and speed must be accurately controlled to ensure that the insulation layer has a uniform thickness, is closely combined with the conductor, and has no defects such as bubbles and impurities. After extrusion, the insulation layer is cross - linked. By heating, the XLPE molecules form a three - dimensional network structure, thereby improving its temperature resistance, mechanical strength and insulation performance.
  1. Cabling Process

Cabling is to strand five Insulated Wire cores together according to a certain stranding direction and pitch. During stranding, it is necessary to ensure that each wire core is in the correct position and the tension is uniform to avoid loosening and twisting of the wire cores. During the stranding process, fillers may be filled in the gaps to make the cabled structure more round and stable, and at the same time enhance the impact resistance of the cable.
After cabling, a wrapping tape may be wrapped to fix the wire cores and enhance insulation. The wrapping tape must be closely attached to the wire cores without wrinkles or damage.
  1. Sheath Extrusion and Finished Product Inspection

During sheath extrusion, the sheath material that meets the requirements is added to the extruder, melted and coated on the outer layer of the cabled wire core through a die. During the extrusion process, the process parameters must be controlled to ensure that the sheath layer has a uniform thickness, a smooth surface and is closely combined with the internal structure.
The finished product inspection link is crucial, including appearance inspection, dimension measurement, electrical performance test, mechanical performance test, etc. The appearance inspection checks whether the sheath is damaged or has bubbles; the dimension measurement checks whether the diameter, insulation layer and sheath layer thickness meet the standards; the electrical performance test includes insulation resistance and voltage resistance; the mechanical performance test includes tensile strength and elongation at break. Only products that meet all indicators can leave the factory.

II. General Product Information

(I) Packaging

  1. Packaging Materials

According to the specification and length of the cable, the packaging materials mainly include cable reels and cardboard boxes. For cables with longer length and larger specifications (such as 70mm² and 95mm²), cable reels are used for packaging. There are two types of cable reels: wooden and steel. Wooden cable reels have lower costs and are suitable for short - distance transportation; steel cable reels have high strength and strong bearing capacity, and are suitable for long - distance transportation and multiple uses.
For short - length or small - specification (16 - 35mm²) cables, cardboard boxes can be used for packaging. Moisture - proof paper or foam boards are placed inside the cardboard boxes to prevent the cables from getting damp and colliding. Both cable reels and cardboard boxes have a certain load - bearing capacity and protective performance.
  1. Packaging Methods

When using cable reels for packaging, the cable is neatly wound on the cable reel. A certain tension is maintained during the winding process to prevent the cable from loosening. Protective sleeves are installed at both ends of the cable to prevent damage to the ends. Labels are fixed on the cable reel, indicating product name, specification, length, production date, batch number and other information.
When packaging with cardboard boxes, the cable is coiled into a circle and put into the box. The surrounding is filled with buffer materials to ensure that the cable will not shake in the box. Relevant product information and warning signs such as "Do Not Invert" and "Handle with Care" are also marked on the outside of the box.

(II) Transportation
