Submersible Cable

Construction

Submersible cable construction involves a multi-layered design for underwater use, featuring flexible copper conductors, waterproof insulation (like XLPE or PVC), a filler for a round shape (in twisted types), and a robust outer sheath (PVC, rubber) for abrasion, water, and chemical resistance, sometimes with steel armoring for deep-well or heavy-duty applications, ensuring reliable power to submerged pumps. 

 

Application

Submersible cables power equipment fully or partially submerged in water, primarily for submersible pumps in deep wells, irrigation, and water supply for residential, agricultural, and industrial uses, like sewage treatment plants. They are also vital for aquaculture, fountains, swimming pools, and even downhole applications in the petroleum industry, providing reliable power to underwater motors and machinery in harsh, wet conditions.
