This 6mm² 3 core SWA armoured cable is designed for mains power and control applications in critical safety environments, rated at 600/1000V with XLPE insulation and a low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) bedding and sheath. The cable features class 2 stranded copper conductors and complies with BS 6724 and IEC 60228 standards. With an operating temperature range of -20°C to +90°C, it is suitable for direct burial, underground, outdoor, and cable duct installations. Steel wire armour (SWA) provides mechanical protection, while the black LSZH sheath ensures reduced smoke and toxic emissions. This cable is ideal for public buildings, transport hubs, and areas where fire safety and reduced emissions are paramount.
