Application

AWA/SWA XLPE PVC Cable is an electrical cable that is made up of one or more electrical conductors and is typically sheathed to keep it all together.
Electrical power is transmitted through power cables.
BS 6622 Power cables can be run overhead, buried in the ground, installed as permanent wiring inside of buildings, or left exposed.
