Quality Control
Raw Material Test
Raw Material Test is the first quality control stage for the 600/1000V PVC Insulated Low Voltage Power Cable. Copper or aluminum conductors are tested for electrical conductivity, tensile strength, and dimensional accuracy. PVC insulation compounds undergo thermal aging, elongation, and insulation resistance testing to confirm durability and safety. Any additional bedding or sheath materials are checked for mechanical strength and environmental resistance. Only raw materials that fully comply with technical specifications and applicable standards are approved for production, ensuring a stable foundation for cable manufacturing.
Process inspection
Process Inspection controls each manufacturing step of the 600/1000V PVC Insulated Low Voltage Power Cable. Conductor stranding is monitored for uniformity and correct lay length. PVC insulation extrusion is inspected for thickness consistency, concentricity, and surface quality. Continuous in-process electrical checks ensure insulation integrity throughout production. Dimensional inspections confirm compliance with design requirements. This systematic inspection process ensures consistent quality and reliable cable performance.
Finished Product
Finished Product Test verifies the final performance of the 600/1000V PVC Insulated Low Voltage Power Cable before delivery. Electrical tests include conductor resistance, insulation resistance, and voltage withstand testing. Mechanical tests assess tensile strength and insulation adhesion. Final visual inspection confirms correct construction, marking, and overall workmanship. Only cables that pass all tests are approved for 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.
