What Is The Difference Between Cross-linked Cable And Armored Cable?

Armored cable means that there is also a protective layer of metal composite material on the outside of the cable, which may be steel tape or thin stainless steel wire. Cross-linked cable is polyethylene plastic cable sheathed cable.

1. Description of cable armored cable The surface protective layer of the cable is wrapped with hot-rolled steel strip or stainless steel wire, which is used to protect the cable wire from being damaged by the force of external industrial equipment. Take the specification model YJV as an example, and the cable with the wide specification model YJV22 as an example. Cables and cross-linked cables are not necessarily unrelated to each other.

Armored cables for cables are usually used to improve the professional ability to resist damage to industrial equipment. They can be directly buried and paved, which can prevent mice from harming the cable insulation. Thermal polymerization is used as the raw material of the cable sheath of the cable, and the allowable working temperature is high, and the current carrying capacity of the cable with the same cross-section is higher. It has good low temperature performance in winter and is not suitable for cracking at low temperature.

The YJV22 cable has an inner sheath and a metal composite armored cable, that is, a double-layer sheath; while the YJV cross-linked cable has no inner sheath and an armored cable, and only has a single-layer sheath. It is softer than the previous one, but not as good as the previous one, such as tensile strength and compressive strength.

YJV is an aerial cable, and YJV22 is an armored cable buried cable. These two are copper core cables. YJV22 is more than YJV with a layer of steel armor for buried cables.

YJV22 is more expensive than YJV cables, and the distance of small models is quite large, the distance is 12~20%; the distance of large sections varies from 3 to 12%. We all know that the cable is a layered specification model of cross-linked cable.

Cross-linked cable generally means that the insulating sleeve of the cable is made of thermally polymerized raw materials. The common raw material is polyethylene plastic (XLPE).
