XLPE power cable drums on the Yaxing production floor

YJV · YJV22 · VV · VV22 — copper & aluminium

Choose the Right Type

YJV, YJV22, VV or VV22 — Which Power Cable Fits Your Installation

For a power cable the two decisions that matter are the insulation and the armor, because together they decide how the cable can be routed, buried and protected. The layer-by-layer construction is shown in the cutaway above; this section is about picking the type.

YJV

XLPEUnarmoredCopper

For indoor distribution in cable trays, ducts and conduits, where the pathway itself provides mechanical protection.

YJV22

XLPESteel-tape armoredCopper

For direct burial and outdoor runs that need protection against crushing and ground pressure.

VV

PVCUnarmored0.6/1kV

A cost-controlled 0.6/1kV option for fixed indoor distribution where XLPE thermal performance is not required.

VV22

PVCSteel-tape armoredLV

Steel-tape armored cable for buried or exposed low-voltage runs.

Direct burial, ground pressure Steel wire armor (SWA) — for longitudinal pull & impact

Cable trench or tray with mechanical risk Steel tape armor (STA)

Indoor tray, duct or conduit Unarmored (YJV / VV) — protection from the pathway

Every type is available with oxygen-free copper or aluminium conductors to IEC 60228, so weight and budget can be balanced without changing the standard.

Match Your Spec

Voltage Class, Conductor and Standard Reference

Match the voltage class and the standard on your drawings to the right configuration. Every combination below is built to recognised international standards, not private specifications.

Voltage class	Conductor (IEC 60228)	Insulation	Armor options	Standard	Typical type
0.6/1kVLV	Copper / Aluminium, Class 1 / 2	XLPE / PVC	None / SWA / STA	IEC 60502-1 · BS 5467	YJV · YJV22 · VV · VV22
3.6/6kV – 8.7/15kVMV	Copper / Aluminium, Class 2	XLPE	None / SWA / STA	IEC 60502-2 · BS 6622	YJV · YJV22

Outer sheath available in PVC, PE or LSZH, chosen for fire performance, UV exposure and burial conditions.

Selection help: Tell us the voltage class, number of cores, conductor material and installation method, and our engineers confirm the exact construction and standard for your tender.

Where They Run

Power Cables for Grid, Substation, Building and Industrial Distribution

As a power cable supplier to EPC contractors, utilities and industrial projects, we build for the way each cable is actually installed, so the armor and sheath match the environment rather than a generic datasheet.

Power Transmission & Distribution

LV and MV feeders across distribution networks, with SWA armor for buried grid runs.

Substations

Connections between transformers, switchgear and busbars, sized to the station voltage class.

Building Power Supply

Risers and main distribution in commercial and residential developments, with LSZH sheath where fire performance is specified.

Industrial Plant Distribution

Process-plant and factory power feeders exposed to mechanical and thermal load.

Underground Burial

Direct-buried runs using SWA or STA armor and a PE sheath for moisture and ground pressure.

Source Factory

Power Cables From a Source Factory You Can Verify

You are ordering from a self-owned source factory that is a long-term supplier to the State Grid, holding CE, UL, TÜV, SAA, RoHS, IEC and ISO 9001 certification, running an independent German-standard testing laboratory and applying 100% factory testing on every batch before it ships.

Build to Your Spec

Custom and Private-Label Power Cable Manufacturing

As a power cable factory with in-house design, we build to your drawing rather than a fixed catalogue, from the conductor to the drum and the print on the sheath.

ConductorOxygen-free copper or aluminium, Class 1 or Class 2 to IEC 60228.
Cores & cross-sectionSingle or multi-core, sized to your load.
Voltage class0.6/1kV up to 26/35kV.
ArmorSteel wire (SWA), steel tape (STA) or unarmored.
Sheath compoundPVC, PE or LSZH, in your specified colour.
Drum length & markingCustom cut lengths, sequential metre marking and your surface print or private label.
PackagingWooden or steel export drums.

One line from design and production through logistics and customs clearance.
