Quality Control

PV SOLAR Copper XLPE Insulated
Raw Material Test

Raw Material Test

All raw materials used in PV Solar Copper XLPE Insulated Cable manufacturing undergo comprehensive quality inspections before production. Copper rods are tested for conductivity, purity, tensile strength, elongation, dimensional consistency, and compliance with international conductor standards. The copper conductor used in PV Solar Copper XLPE Insulated Cable production is verified to ensure excellent electrical performance and long-term reliability. XLPE insulation compounds are tested for dielectric strength, thermal stability, UV resistance, ozone resistance, moisture resistance, environmental aging performance, and mechanical durability. Additional inspections include contamination analysis, density verification, moisture content measurement, and batch consistency evaluation. All incoming materials must meet strict manufacturing specifications before entering production.

Process inspection

Process inspection

Throughout PV Solar Copper XLPE Insulated Cable manufacturing, strict process control procedures are implemented at every stage. Copper conductor drawing and stranding operations are monitored to ensure dimensional accuracy, flexibility, conductivity, and surface quality. Insulation extrusion processes are continuously inspected for XLPE thickness, concentricity, surface finish, and material distribution. Online spark testing is performed throughout production to detect insulation defects immediately. The manufacturing process for PV Solar Copper XLPE Insulated Cable includes continuous monitoring of conductor resistance, insulation diameter, cable roundness, and production parameters. Quality engineers conduct routine inspections and sample testing to verify compliance with product specifications.

 

Finished Product

Finished Product

Every PV Solar Copper XLPE Insulated Cable undergoes extensive final testing before shipment.

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.
