Applications and Route Conditions
XWA manufactures this voltage class for medium voltage distribution feeders, transformer substations, industrial power intake, wind and solar collection circuits, mining distribution routes, municipal underground networks and duct or tray installations.
Larger conductor sizes, thermal spacing and bonding design often point to single-core cable. Compact routes, shorter runs, indoor substations and installations that need combined cable handling often use three-core cable.
Underground or wet-route conditions can require PE sheath and water-blocking options. Projects that include smoke and halogen performance requirements can specify LSZH sheath.

FAQ
What is 15kV Cable?
15kV Cable is a medium voltage power cable with rated voltage U0/U(하나) of 8.7/15(17.5)kV. Distribution systems, transformer substations, industrial feeders and renewable energy collection routes use this voltage class.
Is 8.7/15kV the same as 15kV Cable?
In IEC-based specifications, 8.7/15(17.5)kV is the formal voltage designation behind the common market name. Some projects also use 13.8kV Cable as the market name for this voltage class.
Which standard applies to 8.7/15kV Medium Voltage Cable?
IEC 60502-2 normally covers extruded-insulation medium voltage power cables in this voltage range. Project specifications can also include local utility requirements, national standards or additional test documentation.
Can this cable be single-core or three-core?
예. XWA supplies this voltage class in single-core and three-core constructions. Utility feeders and larger conductor sizes often use single-core cable, while compact route layouts often use three-core cable.
What conductor sizes are common for this voltage class?
Common copper or aluminum conductor sizes include 35mm2 to 400mm2 for many project schedules, with larger sizes possible depending on construction, current rating and installation conditions.
Can this cable be armoured?
예. Route designs can include steel wire armor, steel tape armor or aluminum wire armor where mechanical protection matters. Armor selection depends on single-core or three-core construction, fault-current design and installation route.
How does XWA prepare cable data for this voltage class?
XWA prepares the cable construction, dimensional data, current-rating discussion, drum schedule and test documentation according to the confirmed voltage class, 도체 재료, core count, screen design, 갑옷, sheath and installation route.
