Products Description
If you're pulling a primary power line through underground ducts or concrete trenches at 35kV, you can't afford insulation breakdown or high thermal losses. This 26/35kV cable is built with Class 2 stranded copper, triple-extruded XLPE, and a helical copper tape shield. It gives you maximum conductivity for high-load industrial feeds without the extra bulk or stiffness of heavy steel armor.

Engineering Notes & Field Performance
Why pure copper for 35kV lines?
Current capacity and heat control. Plain and simple. When you're pushing 35kV through a main feeder line, you're usually moving serious wattage. Copper offers significantly lower resistance than aluminum, reducing $I^2R$ power loss under continuous heavy loads and keeping the overall cable diameter slimmer for tight duct spaces.
35kV-grade triple extrusion matters
The electrical stress inside a 35kV cable is intense. Even a microscopic air bubble between the insulation layer and the conductor can trigger partial discharge and ruin the line over time. We run the inner semi-con shield, high-grade XLPE insulation, and outer semi-con shield through a single extrusion head all at once. No air gaps, no void pockets-just clean, reliable insulation life.
Copper tape shield for electrostatic control
Instead of just a basic jacket, a spiral copper tape shield wraps around the insulation core. This contains the high radial electric field neatly inside the cable, keeping nearby control lines safe from interference while giving fault currents a quick, low-resistance exit path to ground if an emergency occurs.
Unarmored for smooth duct pulling
Not every underground cable needs heavy wire armor. When you're installing lines in concrete trenches or PVC/HDPE conduit, steel armor just adds dead weight and makes pulling around sharp elbows a nightmare. This unarmored structure stays flexible and slides through ducts easily, while the tough ST2 PVC outer jacket shields against moisture, soil chemicals, and jobsite wear.
Common Applications
- Municipal 35kV grid distribution and main substation interconnects.
- Underground duct and trench wiring in heavy industrial plants and data centers.
- Connecting main power transformers in wind farms, utility solar sites, and primary switching stations.

Why Huayu Cable
Huayu Cable has been manufacturing wire and cable products since 2004. The company operates a production base of more than 258,000 m² and has developed 38 main product series with more than 8,000 specifications.
For medium-voltage cable projects, the benefit is not simply having different cable sizes available. A project may involve several cable types, different installation conditions and different certification requirements at the same time. Huayu's production, technical and sales teams can work together from the quotation stage to confirm the construction before the order enters production.
Huayu also maintains certification and testing capabilities covering a range of international and industry requirements, including ABS, CCS, DNV, LR, EAC/GOST, IEC, TÜV and CE, depending on the product and project specification.
