ABC CABLE NFC 33-209

Aerial Bundled Cable under NPC 33-209 standard is mainly used in the field of overhead power distribution. ABC Cable, manufactured in accordance with NFC 33-209 is designed for overhead low-voltage power distribution with enhanced mechanical strength and operational safety. The cable consists of insulated aluminum phase conductors twisted around a reinforced messenger conductor, forming a compact aerial bundle. This structure reduces the risk of short circuits caused by external contact and minimizes power outages in densely populated or environmentally challenging areas. The insulation material provides excellent resistance to UV radiation, weather exposure, and thermal aging, ensuring stable electrical performance over long service periods. Compliant with NFC 33-209 requirements, the cable delivers reliable current transmission, reduced line losses, and simplified installation compared with bare conductors. ABC Cable NFC 33-209 is widely used by utility companies for modern overhead distribution networks where safety, durability, and cost efficiency are critical.

(2) Use fireproof cable tray;
(3) Use fireproof paint;
(4) Fire partition walls and fire baffles are installed at cable tunnels, mezzanine exits, etc.;
(5) Overhead cables should avoid oil pipelines and explosion-proof doors, otherwise local pipes or heat insulation and fire prevention measures should be taken.
What should be paid attention to during the transportation and handling of cables?
(1) During transportation, loading and unloading, cables and cable reels should not be damaged. It is strictly forbidden to push the cable reels directly from the vehicle. Generally, cables should not be transported and stored flat.

What inspections should be carried out for the acceptance of cable lines?
(1) The cable specifications should meet the regulations, the arrangement should be neat, no damage, and the signs should be complete, correct and clear;
(2) The fixed bending radius of the cable, the related distance and the wiring of the metal sheath of the single-core power cable should meet the requirements;
(3) The cable terminal and the middle head should not leak oil, and the installation should be firm. The oil pressure of the oil-filled cable and the meter setting should meet the requirements;
(4) Good grounding;
(5) The color of the cable terminal is correct, and the metal parts such as the bracket are completely painted;
