Windfarm Cables | Wind Turbine Cables

Control cables encompass a large family of cables for measurement and modulation applications, manufactured to various British, European and international Standards.  

These include the widely used CY cable, SY cable, YY cable, and LiYCY & LiYY cables designed for a wide range of industrial process automation applications, including signal transmission, measurement, control and regulation. These control cables are often referred to by the application, such as machinery supply cable, motor cable and robotics cable. They are also known as multi-core cables, control flex and control flexible cables.

Depending on their construction properties, these flexible cables can be suitable for use under light, medium or high mechanical stresses. They also offer various degrees of protection against electrical interference and resistance to caustic substances and oils. 

Fixed wiring cables are predominantly used as power supply cables for sockets, switches and light fittings across residential, commercial and industrial environments.                

Designed to be installed in a fixed position, fastened to a support or laid in a specific location, as the name suggests they are not suitable for static or dynamic equipment. These cables are commonly used in construction projects, resulting in them being CPR classified under the Construction Products Regulation, for use across Europe. 

To suit different installations and design parameters, our fixed wiring cables are generally available with PVC or Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) outer sheathing, the latter making the cable suitable for where life and equipment needs additional protection in the event of fire.

Our fixed wiring cable range is manufactured in accordance with British and International Standards and many cables in the range hold BASEC certification.

We supply a full range of fire resistant and fire performance cables, often also referred to as fire survival cables, fire-proof cables, or simply fire cables. These cables are for markets where British and European standards are used.                

Our fire resistant cable range is designed to ensure that emergency systems in public buildings continue to operate in some of the most extreme fire conditions.

Our range of European fire survival cables to FE180 E30 and E90 sits alongside European flame retardant cables which achieve EN 60332-3-24. For British standards, it is the Standard and Enhanced grade cables manufactured in accordance with cable design standards BS7629-1 and BS7846 and meeting the performance requirements of test standards EN 50200 (PH30, PH60, PH120 and Annex E), BS8434-2, BS8491, BS6387 CWZ, and Annex B of BS8591.

The intended application for all of these cables can be found in a number of Codes of Practice, which include BS8519 (selection and installation of fire resistant power and control cable systems for life safety, firefighting, and other critical aplications), BS5839 Part 1 (fire detection and fire alarm systems for buildings - Part 1: Code of practice for design, installation, commissioning and maintenance of systems in non-domestic premises), and BS5266 (emergency lighting - Code of practice for the emergency lighting of premises).

The portfolio of fire performance cables includes include BASEC-approved and LPCB-certified cables.
