The Copper Concentric Cable with 2 cores (available in 10mm² and 16mm² cross-sectional areas) is a high-performance low-voltage power cable designed in compliance with IEC standards. Its concentric construction ensures electrical reliability, enhanced mechanical protection, and added security—making it ideal for service entrances and anti-tampering installations.
Key Features
-
Concentric Design: The core feature of this cable is its structure—two copper insulated conductors surrounded by a concentric layer of copper wires (neutral), often applied in a helical or woven form. This provides electrical shielding, fault current return path, and mechanical strength.
-
High Conductivity Copper: Both the phase and concentric neutral conductors are made from high-purity annealed copper, offering excellent conductivity and long-term reliability.
-
2-Core Configuration: Designed for single-phase systems, this cable contains two insulated phase conductors (L + N), suitable for residential and commercial applications.
-
Available Sizes:
-
2×10mm² + concentric neutral
-
2×16mm² + concentric neutral
These sizes provide different ampacity ratings, allowing users to select according to the system's power demand.
