    Aluminium Power Cable | 4x120mm² | AXMK | 0.6/1kV | 1m

    Aluminium power cable 4x120mm² – is a power cable designed for fixed electrical power transmission, featuring aluminium conductors, XLPE insulation and a black PVC outer sheath. The cable can be used outdoors, underground, in dry, damp and wet rooms, in cable ducts, conduits and directly in concrete. The black outer sheath is resistant to UV radiation, making the cable suitable for outdoor electrical installations.

    Aluminium power cable for fixed 0.6/1kV electrical installations

    The cable has four aluminium conductors with a cross-section of 120mm² and is designed for electrical systems with a rated voltage of 600/1000V. XLPE insulation is suitable for operation at a maximum working temperature of up to 90°C, while the PVC outer sheath protects the internal cable construction against environmental influences.

    Advantages / Benefits

    • 4x120mm² aluminium conductors are suitable for higher-power fixed electrical power transmission lines.
    • Aluminium conductors are lighter than copper conductors of the same cross-section.
    • XLPE insulation is designed for operation at a maximum working temperature of up to 90°C.
    • The black PVC outer sheath is resistant to UV radiation.
    • Can be installed outdoors and underground.
    • Suitable for dry, damp and wet rooms.
    • Can be installed in cable ducts and conduits.
    • Can be installed directly in concrete.

    Disadvantages / Limitations

    • Aluminium conductor: cable lugs, terminals and installation methods suitable for aluminium or Al/Cu connections must be used.
    • Class 2 conductor: the cable is intended for fixed installation and is not designed for continuously moving or frequently flexed connections.
    • Large cable cross-section: installation requires consideration of cable bending possibilities, entry dimensions and sufficient space in the electrical panel.
    • Permissible current is not the same under all conditions: the actual cable load capacity depends on the installation method, temperature, grouping and other installation conditions.

    What is it suitable for? (Applications)

    • Industrial electrical power distribution systems
    • Main and secondary electrical supply lines
    • Connection of electrical panels and distribution equipment
    • Outdoor electrical installations
    • Underground cable laying
    • Dry, damp and wet rooms
    • Cable ducts and protective conduits
    • Fixed 0.6/1kV electrical installations

    What is it not suitable for?

    • Moving or continuously flexed electrical connections
    • Installations requiring a flexible fine-stranded conductor
    • Circuits with a rated voltage exceeding the cable's 600/1000V rating
    • Connection to terminals that are not suitable for aluminium conductors
    • Installations where the calculated 120mm² cross-section is insufficient in terms of load, voltage drop or short-circuit conditions

    Practical example

    At an industrial site, a fixed electrical supply line needs to be installed between the main distribution board and another electrical distribution point. Based on the expected load, line length, voltage drop and installation conditions, the designer determines that a 4x120mm² aluminium cable is suitable. Part of the cable is laid underground, while another section is routed through a cable duct. XLPE insulation and the PVC sheath allow the cable to be used under these conditions, while the UV-resistant black sheath is suitable for sections of the line installed outdoors.

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    What type of conductor does this cable use?

    The cable conductors are made of aluminium. The cable consists of four conductors with a cross-section of 120mm².

    What is the rated voltage of the cable?

    The rated voltage of the cable is 600/1000V.

    Can the cable be laid underground?

    Yes. The cable is suitable for underground installation.

    Is the cable suitable for outdoor installation?

    Yes. The cable is suitable for outdoor installations, and its black outer sheath is resistant to UV radiation.

    Can the cable be installed in damp and wet rooms?

    Yes. The cable can be used in dry, damp and wet rooms.

    Can the cable be installed directly in concrete?

    Yes. The cable is suitable for direct installation in concrete.

    What is the maximum operating temperature?

    The specified maximum operating temperature of the cable is 90°C.

    What insulation and sheath does the cable use?

    The conductor insulation is XLPE, while the cable outer sheath is PVC.

    How can I determine whether a 4x120mm² cable is sufficient?

    The expected load current, cable length, permissible voltage drop, installation method, ambient temperature, cable grouping, protective device parameters and short-circuit conditions must be considered. The 120mm² cross-section alone is not sufficient to determine whether the cable is suitable for a specific installation.

    Important installation and cable selection note

    For connecting aluminium conductors, use only terminals, cable lugs and other connection equipment suitable for aluminium or Al/Cu connections. Cable cross-section, permissible continuous current, protective devices, voltage drop and installation method must be selected according to the specific electrical installation design and installation conditions. If electrical calculations have not been performed, the cable must not be selected solely on the basis of equipment power or rated current.
