TT Cables AXMK Aluminium Power Cable 4 x 16 mm²

The TT Cables AXMK 4 x 16 mm² is a professional-grade aluminium power cable engineered for reliable electrical distribution in fixed installations. Featuring four conductors with a 16 mm² cross-section, this cable is designed to provide consistent performance in both residential and industrial infrastructure projects. Its robust construction and high-quality materials ensure long-term durability and safety in various environmental conditions.

Advantages

This aluminium power cable offers a cost-effective solution for power transmission without compromising on electrical efficiency. The durable polyvinyl chloride (PVC) outer sheath provides excellent protection against mechanical stress and environmental factors, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications. With an operating temperature range from -30°C to +90°C, the cable maintains its integrity in diverse climates, ensuring stable power delivery for demanding electrical systems.

Suitable for

• Fixed power distribution installations
• Industrial electrical infrastructure
• Residential building power supply
• Outdoor and indoor electrical wiring

When it may not be suitable

This cable is not intended for applications requiring high flexibility or frequent movement, as aluminium conductors are less pliable than copper alternatives. It is also not suitable for environments where specific fire safety ratings higher than Fca are mandated by local building codes.

Key specifications

• Conductor cross-section: 16 mm²
• Number of conductors: 4
• Material: Aluminium
• Outer sheath: Polyvinyl chloride (PVC)
• Operating temperature: -30°C to +90°C
• Flammability class: Fca
• Cable shape: Hose

How to use

The cable should be installed by qualified electrical professionals in accordance with local safety regulations. It is designed for fixed installation, meaning it should be secured in cable trays, conduits, or buried in protected trenches. Ensure that the bending radius is respected during installation to prevent damage to the aluminium conductors and the PVC insulation. Connections must be made using appropriate terminals compatible with aluminium conductors to prevent galvanic corrosion.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the total length required for your project
• Ensure compatibility with your existing electrical distribution equipment
• Confirm that aluminium conductors are permitted for your specific application by local regulations
• Check the required bending radius for your installation path

Usage recommendations

Always use approved connectors designed for aluminium wiring to ensure a secure and long-lasting electrical connection. Regularly inspect the cable path for any signs of mechanical damage or environmental degradation.
