Anti-Corrosion HDPE Sheathed XLPE Insulated Underground Power Cable 0.6/1kV

Anti-Corrosion HDPE Sheathed XLPE Insulated Underground Power Cable is engineered for buried power lines that must survive aggressive soil, groundwater and chemical exposure. This anti corrosion HDPE sheathed cable pairs a cross-linked polyethylene insulation core with a dense high density polyethylene outer sheath, so the chemical resistant underground cable resists acids, alkalis, salts and microbial attack that destroy ordinary sheaths. For plants near the coast or in chemical industry zones, an anti corrosion HDPE sheathed cable is the reliable way to protect the conductor for its full service life.

The moisture proof XLPE cable design here uses a fully sealed HDPE sheath plus optional galvanised steel wire or steel tape armour to block water ingress and mechanical damage. The anti corrosion HDPE sheathed cable keeps conductor resistance stable even in wet, saline ground, and the chemical resistant underground cable withstands a 90 C continuous conductor temperature. Every moisture proof xlpe cable drum is routine tested for insulation resistance, conductor resistance and voltage withstand, so this anti corrosion HDPE sheathed cable performs as a long life buried asset.

Technical Specifications

• Industrial parks, ports and wastewater treatment sites.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Why choose an anti corrosion HDPE sheathed cable over PVC sheath?
A: HDPE is far more resistant to acids, alkalis and moisture, so this chemical resistant underground cable lasts longer in aggressive ground.

Q: Is this moisture proof xlpe cable suitable for direct burial?
A: Yes. The anti corrosion HDPE sheathed cable with steel armour is designed for direct burial without extra protection.

Q: Can the sheath be tailored for a specific chemical environment?
A: Yes. We tune the formulation of this anti corrosion HDPE sheathed cable to the chemicals present at your site.

Manufacturing and Quality Assurance

Shenghua controls the density and carbon black content of every anti corrosion hdpe sheath, so the moisture proof xlpe cable blocks water and chemical attack from the first metre to the last. We immersion test the chemical resistant underground cable in acid, alkali and saline solutions and confirm insulation resistance afterwards, proving the anti corrosion hdpe sheath is suited to coastal and petrochemical ground. Each moisture proof xlpe cable drum also passes a spark test on the sheath to detect pinholes before dispatch. When a chemical resistant underground cable is destined for contaminated soil, our engineers review the soil chemistry and adjust the anti corrosion hdpe sheath formulation, and we can add steel armour for the moisture proof xlpe cable where mechanical protection is also required.

Why Buyers Choose This Cable

• Anti corrosion hdpe sheath resists acid, alkali and salt.
• Chemical resistant underground cable proven by immersion testing.
• Moisture proof xlpe cable sheath spark tested for pinholes.
• Optional steel armour for hostile buried routes.

Additional Questions

Q: How is the anti corrosion hdpe sheath verified?
A: The chemical resistant underground cable is immersion tested in aggressive solutions, and the moisture proof xlpe cable retains insulation resistance afterwards.

Q: Can the moisture proof xlpe cable be buried directly?
A: Yes, with armour the chemical resistant underground cable installs directly and the anti corrosion hdpe sheath protects against ground chemicals.
