The main components of 4 core 120 mm² SWA armoured cable is the:
Conductor. The conductor is usually several cores of plain stranded copper.
Insulation. The Insulation is used to protect the conductors from any water damage, especially if the cable is buried underground. It also offers a barricade between the conductors and the other metal components, including the armour.
Bedding. The PVC bedding serves as a buffer between the inner live component of the cable and the outer components.
Steel Wire Armour. The Steel Wire Armour itself is placed over the bedding, providing the cable protection from stress. Sometimes, the armour can be used as the earth cable.
Cable sheathing. The cable sheath is used to protect the inner components of the cable and supplies more protection from mechanical harm and stress.
Due to above 4 core 120 mm² SWA armoured cable structure,which has many advantages,as follow:
1. Protection
The key variation between armoured cable and normal cable is the level of protection provided. Armoured cable has an added layer of protection, usually made from steel or aluminum, that offers robust protection against external factors for example, moisture, harsh temperatures, effect, and scrape. Normal cable, meanwhile, does not have this extra layer of protection.
2. Durability
4 core 120 mm² SWA armoured cables are generally more durable than normal cables. The extra layer of protection makes them more resistant to damage from external factors and increases their lifespan. Normal cables are more prone to damage, particularly in severe environments.
3. Safety
Armoured cables are designed to give added safety benefits. The armor layer acts as an extra layer of insulation, reducing the danger of electrical shock and fire hazards. Normal cables do not offer this added safety feature.
4. Cost
Armoured cables are generally more expensive than normal cables because of the additional layer of protection they provide. However, they are a cost-effective solution in the long run as they need less maintenance and have a longer lifespan.
Overall, the essential distinction between armoured cable and normal cable is the level of protection provided. Armoured cable offers robust protection against external factors, increased durability, added safety benefits, and more versatility, making them a suitable selection for various industrial, business, and residential applications.

4 core 120 mm² SWA armoured cables are primarily used for distribution transmission or signal control. We can offer you with the best solution for your industry and environment.
Because of the wide range of industrial uses and relatively economical wire armored cable prices, there is great demand for wire armored (SWA) cables in the international market. However, the countries producing armored cables are mainly China, the United States, the UK, Japan, Germany, Russia, and other countries with relatively complete industrial abilities. Thus, suppliers of high-quality armored cables must focus on the country where the cable supplier is located.
Thereafter, you need to pay attention to the factory advantage of the wire armored (SWA) cable manufacturer. You must choose the best company to buy a wire armored cable. Huadong Cable have twenty years of experience in production and international trade. Huadong Cable guarantees to supply each customer with high-quality steel wire armored cable, you can keep the specifications and amount of the armored cable you need.If you are not sure about the cable you need, you can Connect with Us. our designer will use the environment base on your 1.

Due to above 4 core 120 mm² SWA armoured cable Feature,which has many applications,as follow:
1. Power Distribution Networks
4 core 120 mm² SWA armoured cables play an important role in power distribution networks, both indoors and outdoors. They are regularly used in substations, transformer stations, and electrical panels to transmit electricity over long distances. Armoured cables provide protection against accidental damages, which is vital for sustaining uninterrupted power supply to residential, commercial, and industrial areas.
2. Industrial and Construction Sites
Industrial and construction environments frequently involve heavy machinery, equipment, and rigorous operations. Armoured cables are extensively used in these settings to make sure the safe and uninterrupted supply of electricity. They can enduring high mechanical tension, making them ideal for power distribution in factories, warehouses, construction sites, and other demanding industrial applications.
3. Underground Installations
Armoured cables are typically used for underground installations because of their capacity to endure the rough conditions found in soil. They offer excellent protection against wetness, chemicals, and physical damages, making them ideal for applications including underground power distribution, street lighting, and residential wiring.
Installation of 4 core 120 mm² SWA armoured cable is quick and cost-effective. There is no need of stiff conduit pipe, just like threading, bending, making support when we use armored cable.For outdoor installation or direct burial applications, there is a need of mechanical protection of electrical cables. The aluminium wire armour (AWA) and steel wire armour (SWA) offer the mechanical protection. The armoured wire has higher tensile loads.The construct of the armour guarantees maximum resistance to crushing, cutting, and use.
Managing and setting up 4 core armoured cables require a level of caution to uphold safety. Prior to setup, guarantee the cable is suitable for its intended use, considering factors like the environment, the nature of the application, and the cable’s rated temperature and voltage.During installation, prevent twisting or bending the cable beyond its minimal bending radius. Excessive bending can destroy the armour and compromise its effectiveness.
