LION ABC Low-Voltage Aerial Bunched Aluminium Cables – Dedicated Solution for Outdoor Electrical Systems

LION low-voltage Aerial Bunched Cables (LV-ABC) are specialized aluminium power cables designed for outdoor power distribution systems. They are particularly well-suited for overhead aerial lines in residential zones, urban areas, power utility projects, and public lighting systems.

Offering a lightweight design, excellent weather resistance, and a secure bundled/twisted structure, LION ABC aluminium cables stand out as the optimal choice to enhance safety while significantly reducing construction and installation costs.

What is a Low-Voltage Aerial Bunched Cable (LV-ABC)?

Low-voltage ABC (Aerial Bunched Cable) is a multi-core power cable where individual insulated cores are twisted together into a tight bundle, greatly improving safety during installation and utilization.

Unlike bare overhead conductors, this cable line utilizes cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation. This ensures the electrical system operates stably under harsh outdoor conditions—such as intense heat, heavy rain, high humidity—or in areas requiring long-distance power connections from the main transmission line.

Structure of LION Low-Voltage ABC Aluminium Cables

LION ABC cables feature a distinctive multi-core twisted bundle configuration, which enhances mechanical durability and guarantees safety during the construction of outdoor overhead distribution systems.

1. Class 2 Stranded Aluminium Conductors

LION ABC aluminium cables utilize premium aluminium strands compliant with TCVN 5934, with conductor parameters matching TCVN 6447 standards. This guarantees stable electrical conductivity while maximizing durability during cable pulling, hanging, and long-term operations.

Depending on the specific requirements of the project, the cables are manufactured in various core configurations:

• 2-Core ABC Aluminium Cable
• 3-Core ABC Aluminium Cable
• 4-Core ABC Aluminium Cable

This versatile design is perfectly suited for both residential applications and large-scale low-voltage distribution grids.

2. Weather-Resistant & UV-Protected XLPE Insulation Layer

A standout feature of LION low-voltage ABC aluminium cables is the XLPE (Cross-linked Polyethylene) insulation layer—a specialized material engineered for outdoor electrical cables due to its exceptional thermal and structural durability.

The XLPE layer delivers numerous advantages:

• Good Heat Resistance, functions stably under demanding outdoor environments.
• Prevents cracking or fracturing during erratic weather shifts.
• Effective UV Protection, highly optimized for aerial overhead cables exposed to direct sunlight.
• Moisture & Corrosion Resistance, extends the overall operational lifespan of the cable.

Consequently, LION ABC cables are ideal for areas prone to prolonged hot seasons, heavy rainfall, industrial parks, or high-humidity coastal environments.

3. Ribbed Core Identification – Outdoor Durability & Contractor-Friendly

To streamline installation and wiring, LION low-voltage ABC cables are clearly marked with the designation LION LV-ABC. Over the black insulation jacket, the individual cores are distinguished by extruded longitudinal ribs and/or numbers (depending on the core count). This provides clear core identification and minimizes wiring errors during setup.

Especially because it uses raised physical ribs instead of painted color lines, the cores remain easily identifiable even after an extended time of harsh outdoor exposure, eliminating the risk of fading caused by sun or rain and making ongoing maintenance and operation more convenient.

The Aerial Bundled Cable (ABC) Twisted Structure

The defining feature of ABC aluminium cables is that the cores are tightly stranded around one another into a secure bundle. This creates a compact, unified cable assembly that greatly increases tensile load capacity for overhead suspension.

Thanks to this twisted bundle engineering, LION ABC cables offer superior field benefits:

• Excellent Tensile Load Strength: Perfectly engineered for long-span overhead aerial lines.
• Reduced Wind Sway: Minimizes swinging and vibration caused by heavy winds, increasing transmission stability.
• Neat & Aesthetic Installation: Keeps overhead lines compact and visually organized, ideal for modern urban and residential landscapes.

Technical Specifications & Key Advantages

LION ABC aluminium twisted cables operate at a nominal voltage rating of Uo/U = 0.6/1kV, making them ideal for low-voltage power systems and outdoor distribution grids.

Under normal conditions, the conductor operates stably at a maximum continuous temperature of 80°C. Especially, in the event of an electrical short circuit, the cable can withstand a maximum conductor temperature of up to 250°C for a duration of up to 5 seconds, ensuring safety and resilience during system anomalies.

Because of its durable structure and good environmental resistance, LION ABC aluminium cable has the following advantages:

• Functions reliably when installed outdoors.
• Lightweight Design, easy to transport, handle, and string overhead.
• More cost-effective compared to copper-core alternatives.

Conclusion

If you are looking for an outdoor cable solution that seamlessly balances structural durability, safety, and cost-efficiency while strictly satisfying utility-grade technical standards, LION Low-Voltage Aerial Bundled Cables (LV-ABC 0.6/1kV) is the definitive choice for your project.

LION aluminium cables are committed to delivering premium quality, ensuring smooth installation for overhead power grids, stable operations, and an extended service lifespan.
