YJV42 is a copper conductor, cross-linked polyethylene insulated, thick steel wire armored, and polyvinyl chloride sheathed power cable. Here is a detailed description:
I. Structural Components
- Conductor: Made of high-quality copper, renowned for its excellent electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity. The conductor is carefully stranded to ensure flexibility and durability, facilitating installation in various construction environments.
- Insulation: Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) is used as the insulation material. XLPE offers outstanding electrical insulation properties, high heat resistance, and aging resistance. Through a special chemical or physical treatment, its molecular structure changes from linear to reticular, significantly enhancing the mechanical strength and electrical performance of the material. This effectively prevents current leakage and short-circuit faults.
- Armoring: The armor layer is made of thick steel wire, providing powerful mechanical protection. The thick steel wire armor can withstand significant tensile, compressive, and impact forces, safeguarding the conductor and insulation inside the cable from external mechanical damage. For example, during cable installation, if there is excavation or rolling on the ground, the thick steel wire armor can effectively protect the cable. In scenarios with vertical installation or high-drop installation, it also ensures the stability and safety of the cable.
- Sheath: The sheath is made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), which has good corrosion resistance, waterproofing, and flame retardancy. The PVC sheath protects the cable from the erosion of external chemicals, prevents moisture from entering the cable interior, and provides a certain degree of flame retardancy in case of fire, reducing the damage to the cable.
- Excellent electrical performance: With high-quality copper conductor and XLPE insulation material, YJV42 cable has low resistance and good insulation performance, ensuring efficient power transmission and reducing power loss. The maximum rated operating temperature of the conductor is 90°C. In case of a short circuit (with a maximum duration of no more than 5 seconds), the maximum temperature of the cable conductor does not exceed 250°C, suitable for various working environments.
- High mechanical strength: The thick steel wire armor structure endows the cable with strong tensile, compressive, and bending resistance, enabling it to adapt to complex laying environments and mechanical stresses. For example, in some occasions that require frequent movement or bending, YJV42 cable can still maintain good performance.
- Good waterproof performance: The PVC sheath and good sealing structure give the cable certain waterproof performance, allowing it to be used in humid environments. However, if it is used in long-term immersion in water or in special underwater environments, further waterproof measures or the selection of specialized underwater cables may be required.
- Strong corrosion resistance: The sheath and armor materials of the cable have good corrosion resistance, able to resist the erosion of acids, alkalis, salts, and other chemicals, suitable for corrosive environments such as chemical plants and mines.
- Mine environments: In mines, cables need to withstand large mechanical stresses and harsh environmental conditions. The thick steel wire armor and good insulation performance of YJV42 cable enable it to operate safely and reliably in mines, providing power support for mining equipment.
- Industrial installations: Suitable for various industrial settings where reliable power transmission is required. It can handle the mechanical stresses and environmental challenges often encountered in industrial facilities.
- Power stations: Can be used in power stations to transmit power from generators to the grid or within the station. Its high mechanical strength and electrical performance make it a reliable choice for such applications.
IV. Production Standards
The production of YJV42 cable complies with international standards such as IEC 60502. These standards specify in detail the cable's structure, performance, test methods, acceptance rules, etc., to ensure the quality and reliability of the cable.
