Quality Control
Raw Material Test
Raw Material Test verifies the quality of all materials before manufacturing. Aluminum conductors undergo tests for purity, electrical conductivity, tensile strength, and dimensional consistency. Insulation materials are tested for weather resistance, thermal aging, mechanical strength, and uniformity. The messenger conductor is evaluated for mechanical performance and structural integrity. Strict material inspection ensures the ABC cable meets NFC 33-209 requirements and delivers reliable performance throughout its service life.
Process inspection
Process Inspection controls quality during the entire production process. Conductor assembly is checked for correct stranding and alignment, while insulation extrusion is monitored for thickness accuracy and surface quality. The cabling process ensures even twisting and secure placement around the messenger conductor. Continuous inspections and in-process testing help maintain product consistency and ensure full compliance with NFC 33-209 technical standards.
Finished Product
Finished Product Test confirms the ABC cable’s compliance with electrical and mechanical specifications. Electrical tests include resistance measurement, insulation integrity, and voltage withstand performance. Mechanical tests evaluate tensile strength, bending capability, and environmental durability. Final visual inspection verifies construction accuracy, labeling, and workmanship. Only products that meet all standards and customer requirements are approved for delivery.

FAQ From Customers
-
What are the advantages of power cables and overhead lines?(1) Reliable operation, because it is installed in a hidden place such as underground, it is less damaged by external forces, has less chance of failure, and the power supply is safe, and it will not cause harm to people; (2) The maintenance workload is small and frequent inspections are not required; (3) No need to erect towers; (4) Help improve power factor.
-
Which aspects should be considered when choosing the cross section of a power cable?(1) The long-term allowable working current of the cable; (2) Thermal stability once short circuited; (3) The voltage drop on the line cannot exceed the allowable working range.
-
What are the measures for cable fire prevention?(1) Use flame-retardant cables; (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. (2) Before transporting or rolling the cable reel, ensure that the cable reel is firm, the cable is wound tightly, the oil pipe between the oil-filled cable and the pressure oil tank should be fixed without damage, the pressure oil tank should be firm, and the pressure indication should meet the requirements.
-
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; (6) There should be no debris in the cable trench, tunnel, and bridge, and the cover should be complete.
