Mining Cables | Drilling & Tunnelling Cable

We supply a range of power network cables for utilities grid providers (including DNO-approved cables) and local power distribution systems cabling for the Building & Construction industry.              

Our cables are manufactured in accordance with a number of British, European and International standards including BS7870 and IEC60502.

Eland Cables’ range of Copper (Cu) and Aluminium (Al) Concentric and Split Concentric cables to BS7870 and 11kV and 33kV cables specifically designed and approved for use on the areas of the UK national grid maintained and operated by UKPN, SSE, WPD, NPG, ENW and SPEN. These DNOs to provide the final connection to residential, commercial and industrial properties. Local network distribution cables are also used for sub-main distribution and for street lighting. These are available with oversheathing in Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) or Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH). Low Voltage Waveform cables are also available for each of the UK DNOs.

High temperature cables (also known as High Temp cables) represent a vast range of cables which continue to perform at increased and elevated temperatures.                

We supply a range of high temperature cables that are manufactured in accordance with various British and International Standards, including BS6231, BS 3G 210, BS EN 50525-2-41, UL 1015 and CSA 22.2. We also supply high temperature cables meeting Defence Standard (Def Stan) 61-12 Part 8.

Our high temperature cable range includes tri-rated cables which are designed to endure continuous operating temperatures of 105°C and which are fully approved to British (BS), Canadian (CSA) and US (UL) Standards for switchgear and panel wire applications. Our high temp silicone cables , including the H03S-K and 2GTL cables are often used in both refrigeration and furnace applications due to their broad temperature range. Our Intemp 250 cables, sometimes referred to as a high performance glass fibre braid cable or mica glass tape cable, can withstand temperatures of up to 250°C whilst our mineral insulated cables are heat resistant to 950oC.

Eland Cables supplies a range of fibre optic cables for both indoor and outdoor installations. These are interchangeably referred to as fibre optic and optical fibre.

Fibre optic cables consist of glass threads, each capable of transmitting digital data modulated into light waves. They effectively send information coded in a beam of light through a glass or plastic pipe. A key advantage of fibre optic cables over metal conductor cables is their superior performance in terms of bandwidth and therefore data carrying performance. Optical fibre cables are generally lighter and less susceptible to electromagnetic interference, however optical fibre tends to be more fragile than cables with a metal conductor.

The applications for optical fibre range from carrying telephone calls (up to several million calls per cable) to high speed data transfer for vast computer networks.
