General Information – Armoured Cable 2 Core
General Information – Armoured Cable 2 Core is a type of electrical cable identified by its steel wire armour surrounding the insulated layers beneath. This is a form of mechanical protection, as to make this cable suitable for outdoor use as well as burial underground to supply power to outdoor structures and buildings etc.
Armoured Cable 2 Core, as indicated by the name, contains 2 Cores (Brown & Blue). Not only does the steel wire armour provide mechanical protection, but it also enables the cable to have higher pulling loads.
Armoured Cable 2 Core can also be attached to walls using cleats too. This means that you could potentially power something that’s on a roof of a building or structure lessening the need to run the cable inside the building, making the job more approachable.
