Aluminum PVC Cable is a low-voltage power cable using a high-purity aluminum conductor with PVC insulation and protective sheath. It is designed for fixed power distribution and wiring applications where an aluminum conductor is technically suitable and lower cable weight is an important consideration. Available constructions include solid hard-aluminum and stranded aluminum conductors, with cross-sections from 2.5mm² to 185mm² and rated voltage of 450/750V and below.

The conductor is made from high-purity aluminum and can be supplied in solid hard-aluminum or stranded construction. The available cross-section range is 2.5mm² to 185mm². Conductor selection should be based on the required load, allowable voltage drop, installation method and applicable electrical requirements rather than cross-section alone.
The PVC insulation provides electrical separation around the conductor, while the outer PVC layer adds protection during normal handling and fixed installation. The finished cable should be selected according to the expected ambient temperature, moisture exposure, mechanical conditions and whether the installation is indoors or outdoors.
The listed specifications include insulation resistance, power-frequency withstand voltage and DC conductor resistance requirements. These parameters provide practical reference points for evaluating electrical insulation and conductor quality before the cable is put into service.
The use of high-purity aluminum provides a relatively low conductor weight while maintaining the electrical characteristics required for the specified application. Controlling the conductor cross-section is important for maintaining predictable resistance and current-carrying capability under the intended operating conditions.
The insulation and sheath are formed through a controlled extrusion process to maintain the specified cable dimensions. Consistent insulation thickness helps provide reliable electrical separation, while the outer sheath adds protection against normal contact, moisture and mechanical wear within the applicable service conditions.
Qiancheng checks measurable cable characteristics during production, including conductor resistance, finished dimensions and electrical performance. Inspection records and relevant test documentation can be provided according to the product specification and project requirements.
An aluminum conductor has a lower density than copper, making the finished cable easier to handle for suitable applications. This can be useful for long cable routes, outdoor fixed wiring and projects where cable transportation and installation workload need to be considered.
The insulation and outer sheath form a two-layer protection system around the conductor. The structure provides electrical insulation and additional physical protection for fixed wiring under suitable environmental conditions.
The available conductor cross-sections range from 2.5mm² to 185mm², covering different low-voltage fixed wiring requirements. Specification selection should consider equipment load, installation method, cable length, voltage drop and applicable local electrical requirements.
For engineering applications involving substantial cable quantities or long transportation distances, the lower density of aluminum can simplify material handling. The actual economic benefit depends on conductor size, cable length, installation conditions and the required electrical performance.
The technical table lists flame-retardant and fire-resistant performance requirements for applicable specifications. Where a project requires specific fire performance, the required grade, test method and certification should be confirmed before production and shipment.
Aluminum PVC Cable can be used for low-voltage fixed power distribution in residential, commercial, industrial, agricultural and infrastructure projects where the selected aluminum conductor meets the electrical design requirements.
Typical applications include power distribution for residential building blocks, self-built houses, shops and other fixed building wiring. Installation may include indoor conduit routing where the cable specification and local electrical code permit its use.
The cable can be considered for municipal lighting, park street lamps, outdoor fixed power distribution and urban-rural power grid renovation projects. Outdoor installation should take account of sunlight, moisture, mechanical protection and the environmental rating of the selected cable.
It can be used for low-voltage power supply to factory workshops, small processing plants and other fixed industrial loads. The conductor cross-section should be determined from the actual equipment load and installation conditions.
The lower weight of aluminum can be useful for temporary power distribution at construction sites and other projects requiring cable relocation or repeated material handling. The cable should be installed with suitable mechanical protection and according to the temporary power system requirements.
Applications can include farmland irrigation, greenhouse power supply and other low-voltage agricultural installations, as well as suitable infrastructure wiring. Environmental exposure and installation method should be evaluated before selecting the final specification.
The product supports fixed installation methods such as indoor conduit routing, suitable outdoor overhead installation and other approved low-voltage laying methods. The applicable installation method should always be confirmed against the cable specification and local electrical regulations.
Confirm the connected load and operating current before selecting the conductor cross-section. Cable length and allowable voltage drop should also be included in the calculation.
Indoor conduit, outdoor overhead, construction-site and agricultural installations may have different environmental requirements. Exposure to sunlight, water, mechanical impact and temperature should be considered during specification confirmation.
If the project requires flame-retardant or fire-resistant cable, the required classification and test requirements should be specified before production. The relevant performance should not be assumed from the standard PVC construction alone.
For export or engineering projects, required standards, test reports, certificates, packaging specifications and marking requirements should be confirmed in advance. This helps ensure that the supplied cable matches the technical and documentation requirements of the destination market.
The product is manufactured by Qiancheng. The available specifications can be supplied according to the required conductor cross-section, voltage rating and application conditions.
Customized finished lengths, printing and other production requirements can be discussed according to the order specification. OEM arrangements can also be evaluated for suitable project quantities and technical requirements.
Common specifications can be arranged according to production and inventory conditions. For bulk orders, the required cross-section, quantity, finished length, packaging and delivery schedule should be confirmed before production or shipment.
Typical applications include residential and commercial power distribution, factory workshops, municipal lighting, construction-site power supply, agricultural irrigation and other suitable low-voltage fixed wiring projects.
Conductor cross-section, operating current, cable length, voltage drop, installation method, ambient conditions and required fire performance should all be considered. The appropriate specification should be determined from the actual electrical design rather than selecting only by price or nominal cross-section.
Samples and technical documentation can be discussed according to the required specification. Available documents may include product parameters, factory test records and other applicable technical or compliance documents required for the project.
