Aerial Bunched Cables for Overhead Power Lines
Aerial Bunched (ABC) Cables – A Safer Choice for Overhead Power Lines
Nepal’s diverse terrain—from bustling cities to remote hills—poses challenges for safe and reliable electricity distribution. Traditional bare conductor systems often suffer from short circuits, line losses, and safety hazards. Aerial Bunched (ABC) Cables provide a modern solution, ensuring safer, more efficient, and durable overhead power lines.
What Are Aerial Bunched (ABC) Cables?
ABC Cables are overhead power cables where multiple insulated conductors are twisted (bunched) together around a neutral messenger wire. This replaces the open-wire system, offering higher safety, better reliability, and lower maintenance requirements.
Each conductor is made of aluminum and insulated with XLPE (cross-linked polyethylene), providing durability, weather resistance, and protection against electrical faults.
Why Choose ABC Cables?
1. Enhanced Safety
The insulation prevents direct contact between conductors, reducing short circuits, electric shocks, and fire risks—perfect for crowded urban areas or tree-lined streets.
2. Reliable Power Supply
ABC systems are less prone to interruptions caused by wind, vegetation, or accidental contact, providing consistent electricity delivery.
3. Easy Installation and Low Maintenance
Lighter and compact, ABC cables are easier to install than bare conductors and require minimal maintenance.
4. Reduced Power Theft
Their insulated, compact design discourages illegal tapping, helping utilities and municipalities cut distribution losses.
Applications in Nepal
Janaki Cable Industry’s ABC Cables are ideal for:
Temporary power supply setups
Areas with dense vegetation or narrow roads
ABC cables perform reliably across Nepal’s varying terrain and weather—from Terai plains to hilly regions.
Technical Specifications of ABC Cables
