IEC 60502-1 & TNB 0.6/1kV LV ABC Cable Application
The IEC 60502-1 standard LV ABC Cable Aerial Bundle Conductor is overhead power lines and room entrance wires with a rated AC pressure of 1kv and below. ABC Cable has less installation, maintenance, and operating costs, which can achieve greater economic loss and provide higher security and reliability.Aerial Bundle Cable (ABC cable) is a very innovative concept for overhead power distribution as compared to the conventional bare conductor overhead distribution system.
LV Aerial Bundle Cables are designed to supply 600/1000 volt aerial service for temporary service at construction sites, as a service drop (power pole to service entrance), as a secondary cable (pole to pole) or street lighting.
