Power Cables

Batt Cables

A power cable, also known as an electrical cable or power cord, is a wire or bundle of wires that carries electrical energy from a power source to a device or appliance. They are essential for connecting devices to power outlets, allowing them to operate.

They typically consist of one or more insulated conductors, often bundled together and encased in an outer sheath or jacket. Power cables are used in a wide range of applications, from small household appliances and electronics to large industrial equipment.

There are various types of power cables, including standard power cords for everyday devices, extension cords for temporary power sources, and hard-wired cables used for permanent installations.

Batt Cables specialises in low and medium voltage power cables for permanent industrial and construction applications. Popular examples of these cables include Steel Wired Armoured (SWA) and Aluminium Wired Armoured (AWA) cables.

SWA are power and auxiliary cables for mains supply electricity, sometimes known as power, mains or booklet-armoured cables. They are used for cable networks, underground systems and cable ducting. Batt SWA cables meet the construction and testing requirements of BS 6724, for your peace of mind. We offer a comprehensive range of SWA cables, from 2 to 48 Cores and Conductor Sizes 35mm² 185mm².

AWA cables are a cost-effective alternative to SWA, used where cable weight, magnetic interference or corrosion are concerns. Batt AWA cables meet the construction and testing requirements of BS 6724, for your peace of mind.

Batt also offers a wide range of Unarmoured power cables. Unarmoured cables are simpler in design, as they don’t feature protective layering. This makes them a great choice when flexibility is needed and budgets are tight. They are suitable for less demanding applications where damage is unlikely to occur, such as inside walls.

Whichever power cable type you choose, you’re assured of the highest quality products and service from Batt. For more details, visit the Batt Cables website here.
