What governing standard and construction define SANS 1507 SWA (SANS 1507 SWA 0.6/1 kV Armoured Mining Power Cable)?

SANS 1507 SWA (SANS 1507 SWA 0.6/1 kV Armoured Mining Power Cable) is manufactured in accordance with SANS 1507-3 / SANS 1507-4 / IEC 60502-1 for 0.6/1 kV duty over -15 to +90 °C. Its 5-layer construction comprises Phase Conductors (4×70 mm²), Core Insulation (XLPE / PVC) and Red-Striped Flame-Retardant Sheath.

What is the minimum bending radius and operating temperature range for SANS 1507 SWA?

The minimum bending radius for SANS 1507 SWA is 12 × OD across its continuous operating temperature range of -15 to +90 °C, ensuring mechanical and dielectric reliability in mining and heavy industrial service.

How are the concentric layers of SANS 1507 SWA arranged from inside to outside?

From inside to outside, the construction sequence is: (01) Phase Conductors (4×70 mm²) (SANS 1411-1 / IEC 60228 Class 2 stranded annealed plain copper); (02) Core Insulation (XLPE / PVC) (90 °C XLPE insulation color-coded Red, Yellow, Blue & Black per SANS 1507); (03) Extruded PVC Bedding (Continuous grey PVC inner bedding layer cushioning the 4-core assembly); (04) Round Steel Wire Armour / ECC (SWA) (Galvanized round steel wires serving as mechanical armour & earth continuity); (05) Red-Striped Flame-Retardant Sheath (Black UV-stabilized FR-PVC outer jacket with longitudinal red stripes).

What factory test certificates are supplied with SANS 1507 SWA?

Every production drum of SANS 1507 SWA undergoes routine conductor resistance/continuity, high-voltage dielectric and dimensional testing per SANS 1507-3 / SANS 1507-4 / IEC 60502-1, and is delivered with an EN 10204 3.1 factory test certificate.
