TT Cables AXMK RE Aluminium Power Cable, 5 x 10mm², 1500m

The TT Cables AXMK RE is a robust aluminium power cable engineered for consistent and reliable electrical distribution in fixed installations. Featuring five conductors with a cross-section of 10mm² each, this cable is designed to meet the demands of power networks where durability and efficient conductivity are essential. The cable is encased in a high-quality black polyvinyl chloride (PVC) sheath, providing protection against environmental factors and ensuring long-term performance in various industrial and commercial settings.

Advantages

This aluminium power cable offers a cost-effective and lightweight alternative to copper wiring without compromising on electrical performance. The five-conductor configuration allows for versatile phase and neutral arrangements, making it highly adaptable for complex electrical systems. Its PVC insulation and outer sheath provide excellent resistance to mechanical stress and moisture, ensuring the integrity of the power supply over extended periods. The 1500m length is specifically suited for large-scale infrastructure projects, minimizing the need for joints and connections.

Suitable for

• Fixed electrical installations in industrial facilities
• Commercial building power distribution networks
• Large-scale infrastructure and utility projects
• Outdoor and indoor power supply systems

When it may not be suitable

This cable is not intended for applications requiring high flexibility or frequent movement, as the solid aluminium conductors are designed for static installations. It is also not suitable for environments where fire safety regulations require low-smoke or halogen-free materials, as this cable is rated with an Eca flammability class.

Key specifications

• Conductor cross-section: 10 mm²
• Number of conductors: 5
• Cable shape: Hose
• Outer material: Polyvinyl chloride (PVC)
• Colour: Black
• Flammability class: Eca
• Total length: 1500 m

How to use

The cable should be installed by qualified electrical professionals in accordance with local building codes and safety standards. It is designed for fixed installation, meaning it can be laid in cable trays, conduits, or directly buried if protected according to regional regulations. Ensure that the bending radius is respected during installation to prevent damage to the aluminium conductors and the PVC insulation. Connections should be made using appropriate terminals designed for aluminium conductors to prevent galvanic corrosion and ensure a secure electrical contact.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the 10mm² cross-section is sufficient for the intended current load and voltage drop requirements of your project.
• Ensure that the installation environment complies with the Eca flammability rating.
• Confirm that the equipment used for termination is compatible with aluminium conductors.
• Check the total length requirements to ensure the 1500m spool is appropriate for your project scale.

Usage recommendations

Always consult with a certified electrician to calculate the required cable sizing based on your specific load and installation method. Ensure that all terminations are properly tightened and inspected to maintain electrical safety and prevent overheating.
