The 37 cores—white numbered for easy identification—enable you to manage multiple independent circuits within a single, compact cable run, eliminating the need for separate cable bundles and simplifying installation across both fixed and mobile applications.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRobust Protection in Harsh Environments\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe three-layer protection system sets this cable apart. Galvanised steel wire armour guards internal conductors against physical damage, ground pressure, moisture, and other stresses common in harsh environments, while XLPE (cross-linked polyethene) insulation can withstand deterioration as well as heat. The hard-wearing PVC outer sheath resists UV exposure, chemicals, and abrasion—making this cable equally suited for buried underground installations, outdoor wall runs, cable ducting, and industrial facility applications.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDesign Built for Real-World Conditions\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGalvanised steel wires are applied helically in a single layer for multicore cables, with wire diameter typically 0.9 mm to 3.15 mm, ensuring near-100% coverage and high impact resistance. This construction means the cable withstands crushing, pulling, and tension forces that would compromise standard unarmoured alternatives. The armouring is normally connected to earth and can sometimes be used as the circuit protective conductor (\"earth wire\") for the equipment supplied by cable—streamlining electrical installations and reducing additional earthing requirements.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSuperior Conductivity and Safety\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eClass 2 stranded annealed copper conductors deliver excellent electrical performance with flexibility during installation. Operating at 90°C continuous rating, this cable maintains its integrity even in demanding power distribution scenarios. The cable is UV resistant for outdoor applications and complies with BS EN 60332-1-2 (CPR Compliant).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVersatile Applications Across Industries\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePower and auxiliary control cables are suitable for use in power networks, underground, outdoor and indoor applications and in cable ducting. With 37 cores, this configuration excels in control systems for three-phase power distribution, auxiliary circuits, and signal transmission where multiple independent conductors are required. Common uses include industrial automation, manufacturing facility wiring, renewable energy systems (including solar installations), telecommunications infrastructure, and construction site temporary power distribution.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCut to Your Exact Specification\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSupplied as cut-to-length, this cable arrives ready for your project without waste. Simply specify your required length, and receive exactly what you need—ideal for both small repairs and large-scale installations where precision planning matters.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhy This Matters for Your Project\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eStandard unarmoured cables fail quickly in environments with mechanical stress, moisture exposure, or risk of accidental damage. This armoured multicore cable eliminates those failure modes. It won't degrade from rodent damage, won't be compromised by ground pressure or construction activity, and won't require expensive conduit or additional protective measures. SWA is more expensive upfront but provides lower maintenance and greater long-term cost efficiency—your initial investment pays back through reduced downtime and replacement costs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"swa cable","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54292775633223,"sku":"H694\/37XL1.5","price":30.21,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0966\/1156\/5895\/files\/cable_37coreswa.jpg?v=1783243435","url":"https:\/\/electricallighting.co.uk\/products\/1-5mm-37-core-pvc-swa-xlpe-armoured-cable-cut-length-sold-by-the-metre","provider":"Electrical Lighting ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
