5 core 16 mm² STA armoured cable or just sta armoured Cable, is a strengthened, hard-wearing and weather resistant cable.The construction of sta cables contains Plain Stranded Copper conductor, insulated with Cross-Linked Polyethylene, bedding and sheathing made from Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC).For single-core cable, the armouring beneath the sheath is usually Aluminium (AWA Cable). In cable with multiple cores, it is steel, STA– Steel tape armour.STA Cable matches both outside use and direct burial. The armour below the sheath also permits pulling loads because of increased strength.
We provide a comprehensive series of BASEC-approved sta armoured cables, manufactured in accordance with a number of British, European and International standards including BS5467, BS6622, BS6724, BS7835, BS EN 50267, IEC 60502 and BS EN 60332-1-2 (for single core cables). Huadong Cables’ range of armoured cable is offered with a Copper (Cu) or Aluminium (Al) conductor and with a Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) or Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) sheathing, LSZH sheathings are recommended for use in high density enclosed areas, and are obligatory in some social places.
Due to above 5 core 16 mm² STA armoured cable’s structure,which has many advantages,as follow:
1.High mechanical strength
5 core 16 mm² STA armoured cable could be used to change the protective layer of cable machinery on the cable of any construct. It can improve the mechanical strength of the cable and have an anti-corrosion impact. It can avoid mechanical damages or corrosion, so that the designed wire and cable. It can be laid by any method, and the modified cable of the steel belt is laid directly, and it will bear an external pressure in the horizontal direction. And the steel wire armored cable is set up in some vertical setup positions like shafts.
2.Strong resistance to external force
And after the armor layer is added to the cable, its flexible strength can be improved, and its strength will also be strengthened, thereby increasing the service life of the machine. Furthermore, the armored cable has excellent resistance to external forces, which can avoid heavy bites. And its armor layer can be grounded for use, which can protect the cable.

5 core 16 mm² STA armoured cable has an additional layer of protection that stops it from being reduced or torn. The armor of the coaxial cable is an aluminum foil wrap that is ribbed like corrugated metal to supply versatility, and around the inside and outside of the wrap is a waterproof compound to stop wetness from penetrating the cable and creating harm. The interior structure of the 5-core armored cable includes several layers to avoid damage to the cable. The outer sheath protects against rodents, abrasion and twisting and is usually made of plastic. Armoring materials are mainly derived from Kevlar, steel and aluminum foil, and are designed to protect the armored cable from being stretched during installation.
These cables can ensure maximum safety and durability, offered you choose the right kind of cable. For high voltage applications, it would be best to go for an XLPE armored cable. It is also vital to remember that wires have varying current-carrying capacities relying on different factors including, their size, variety of cores, and length. For example, a 5 core 16 mm² STA armoured cable with XLPE insulation can transmit up to 1000 volts. The same can not be said about other varieties of armor-glad electrical wires.
Due to above 5 core 16 mm² STA armoured cable’s Feature,which has many applications,as follow:
1.5 core 16 mm² STA armoured cable utilized in transformer stations, switching blocks, in electric power plants and industrial plants. Medium voltage power cable for static application in ground, within and outside facilities, outdoor, in cable canals, in water, in conditions where cables are not exposed to heavier mechanical tension and tensile strain.
2. To prevent the effects of external impact, the adhering semi-conductive layer extruded between conductor and insulation, together with concentric copper conductor, safeguards constraint of electric area and resistance to partial discharges.
3. Because of its very low element of dielectric decrease, which remains continuous over its whole operating lifetime, and owing to excellent insulation property of XLPE-material, firmly longitudinally spliced with inner and external screen of semi-conductive material (extruded in one process), the cable has a high running dependability.
5 core 16 mm² STA armoured cables supply appropriate protection and sturdiness in the absence of conduits. In many cases, people are forced to use conduits in areas prone to exterior risks like corrosion and cable abrasion. Thus, it is correct to say that an armored cable is suitable for use in hazard-prone areas.A standard electrical cable is probably to incur irreversible damage in areas exposed to moisture. A metal coated wire is suitable for such an environment because it can endure moisture exposure. Generally, it is advisable to use armor-clad cables in dangerous locations, including beneath stairwells, barns, and basements, to name a few.
A routine visual inspection can also help spot potential issues early. Always check for signs of damage or exposed wires before working with armoured cables. Damaged cables should be repaired or replaced immediately.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.
