4 core 16 mm² STA armoured cables are often described as steel tape armoured cables, STA cable, mains power cable, single core power cable, and multi-core booklet armoured cable.The armour increases cable life thus improves the functionality, reliability, and safety of the cable core.
Steel tape, steel wire, aluminium tape, aluminium tube, etc are examples of commonly used armouring materials. Steel tape and steel wire armouring layers stand out among them for their high magnetic permeability and effective magnetic shielding. These cables are directly installed, instead of putting them through pipes, which is more functional and economical.
Due to above 4 core 16 mm² STA armoured cable’s structure,which has many advantages,as follow:
1. Protects against physical damage — Armoured cable is tough, which makes it resistant to physical damage. It can endure hits, cuts, and stress without impacting the wires inside.
2. Resistant to extreme weather — It’s also created to withstand harsh climate condition. Rain, snow, or extreme temperatures, it can deal with it all without losing its effectiveness.
3. Prevents electrical interference — Electrical interference can disrupt the flow of existing, but this cable is designed to avoid that. It makes sure a stable flow of electricity.
4. Boosts safety from fires — Safety is another vital feature. The cable’s design helps to stop fires from distribution, keeping buildings and people safer.

4 core 16 mm² STA armoured cable is a kind of cable that is covered in metal sheath. The cable is a bunch of wires, encased in metal tube or covering, which is further enclosed in elastic insulation layer. Metal covering saves wires from any sort of wear and tear or physical effect. Such cables are little heavier in contrast of normal wires and quite hard to bend.
At first, the conductor (normally a plain stranded copper) is chosen.For the protection of conductor from water-damage, insulation is used. It too protects conductor from metal element i.e. armour.Now bedding is done, which is actually PVC. It works like a barrier between inner component of conductor and outer parts.Afterwards, armour is placed over bedding for protecting the cable from any sort of stress. Sometimes, it is used as the ‘earth cable’.Last part, cable sheathing is done to guard inner cable components. Also, it saves the cable against mechanical damage.
Due to above 4 core 16 mm² STA armoured cable’s Feature,which has many applications,as follow:
The defensive and resilient nature of sta armoured cables makes them highly demanded in a wide range of applications and industries. In construction and infrastructure advancement, these cables are used for power transmission in both underground and overhead installations. Their toughness and ability to endure severe environments also make them ideal for use in the utilities and renewable energy sector, including for power links in wind turbines and solar panels.
In the mining and marine industries, where environment conditions can be serious and unforeseeable, the use of sta armoured cables is prevalent due to their strength and stamina. Moreover, these cables are also used in heavy industries and manufacturing, where machinery and equipment require reliable and constant power supply.
To sum it up, 4 core sta armoured cables are virtually a non-negotiable necessity in industries that run within harsh environments. These cables offer a robust, protected method for the transmission of power and data in various situations.
When it comes to precisely what circumstances 4 core 16 mm² STA armoured cable should be used in, typically if the cable itself is going to be exposed to the weather and needs to be fully secured and water proof e.g. used externally then armoured cable should certainly be used.Likewise if there is also a possibility that it could get damaged by effect force e.g. digging in the ground, pinching or crushing e.g. heavy weights being rolled over or pushed into the cable it needs to be able to withstand these forces and a standard residential grey electrical cable would merely not be up to the task and if it became destroyed would pose a huge danger and potential for injury.
In summary if a cable is to be operated externally, despite whether it’s buried or surface mounted or is going to be used in industrial locations around heavy machinery then armoured cable should always be used.Huadong Cable is here to help you with all your cable needs.
