Special Features: Xlpe Insulation

  • Cross-linked Polyethylene Insulated Electric or XLPE Power Cables possesses excellent electrical, mechanical and heat-resistant properties. It has an advantage over PVC insulated cables because of its easy maintenance. Due to the invention of advanced XLPE insulation, EHV cables are also available today. Paramount XLPE cables are manufactured and tested in accordance with IS: 7098 (Part II) and other international standards.

Method of Installation

  • Multi core cables are installed singly.
  • Single core cables are laid in trefoil formation.
