RBICAB PVC Armoured Cables are engineered for demanding electrical installations requiring superior mechanical protection and reliable power transmission in industrial, commercial, and infrastructure projects. These high-performance cables feature high-conductivity copper or aluminium conductors insulated with durable PVC, offering excellent electrical efficiency, heat resistance, and minimal power loss.
The key feature is the robust metallic armouring sheath, which provides enhanced protection against physical impact, abrasion, crushing, and rodent attacks, making these cables ideal for direct burial, underground ducts, and exposed outdoor or industrial installations. The armour also adds an extra layer of safety in hazardous environments.
Manufactured in compliance with international standards (IEC, IS, and equivalents), RBICAB PVC Armoured Cables ensure safety, durability, and consistent performance across a wide range of sizes and current ratings. They are designed to withstand harsh environmental conditions, including moisture, oils, and chemical exposure, while maintaining excellent thermal stability.
Key advantages include superior mechanical protection, excellent electrical conductivity, long service life, resistance to environmental stressors, and suitability for underground, outdoor, and high-risk indoor applications.
