NCI 1-Core PVC/PVC Copper Cable – Aluminium Wire Armoured (AWA) | BS 6346
NCI ESMA-certified 1-core PVC/PVC copper AWA cable, BS 6346, 0.6/1kV. Sizes 50–1000mm². Ideal for UAE underground power distribution. Buy at Aswan Elect.
NCI 1-Core PVC Insulated, PVC Sheathed Copper Cable with Aluminium Wire Armour (AWA) is manufactured to BS 6346 standard at 0.6/1 kV rating. Made by National Cables Industry (NCI), Sharjah UAE — ESMA Emirates Quality Mark certified and BASEC approved — this single-core cable is engineered for heavy-duty underground power distribution, substation feeders, and high-current industrial circuits across the UAE and GCC.
The round stranded compacted (rmc) copper conductor ensures superior conductivity and flexibility during installation. PVC insulation provides robust resistance to moisture, chemicals and mechanical stress, while the continuous aluminium wire armour delivers excellent mechanical protection against soil pressure and accidental damage in direct burial applications.
Ideal for use in DEWA, SEWA, ADDC, and FEWA compliant electrical installations, industrial plants, substations, and large-scale commercial projects throughout the UAE and Middle East.
