| Name |
| ||
| Technical purpose of product or process | Aerial Bunched Cables (ABC) are overhead power cables comprising multiple insulated single-core conductors bundled into a compact assembly. This Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) covers the Aerial Bunched Cable with a conductor configuration of 3 × 70 mm² + 1 × 54.6 mm², manufactured by APAR Industries. The cable is a low-voltage, heavy-duty product insulated with XLPE and designed to provide reliable electrical, mechanical, and thermal performance in outdoor overhead distribution networks. Compared to conventional bare conductors, this ABC configuration offers improved electrical strength retention, higher short-circuit withstand capability, and enhanced resistance to moisture and surge currents, ensuring long service life and dependable operation in industrial, commercial, and utility applications. The Global Warming Potential (GWP-total) results for the alternative variant, Aerial Bunched Cable (3 × 35 mm² + 1 × 54.6 mm²), are included in the annex for reference. Features: • Long service life with defect-free insulation • High electrical and mechanical strength • Resistance to moisture and surge currents • Lower laying and installation costs due to smaller diameter and bending radius | ||
