SWA Armored Cable
SWA (Steel Wire Armored) cable is a widely used steel wire armored power cable in low- and medium-voltage power distribution systems, offering excellent mechanical protection.
SWA Cable
SWA cable is suitable for fixed installations, especially for direct underground burial, outdoor installations, and industrial environments.
Conductors ： 99.99% high-purity oxygen-free copper
Rated Voltage Uo/U (Um) : 0.6/1kV
Insulated : XLPE (Cross-Linked Polyethylene)
Standards : BS 5467, IEC/EN 60502-1, IEC/EN 60228
Outer Jacket : PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)
Temperature range ：-25°C to +90°C
Advantages of flexible cable
SWA cables typically use copper or aluminum conductors, combined with PVC or XLPE insulation, and a stranded steel wire armor layer outside the insulation layer, effectively resisting external impact, compression, and tensile stress.

What are people saying about us
Our customers have consistently shared positive feedback about our cables and services. Here’s what they say about US:
Angelo Reyes - Philippine
When collaborating with the factory to customize solar photovoltaic lines, their technical team provided detailed answers to our specification questions and offered sample testing plans. The cables fully comply with IEC standards.
Aleksi Niemi - Finland
Comparing Geritel Wire with other big brands, I found their quality to be almost identical, and at a much better value. I’m delighted with the purchase and truly impressed with their professionalism and product.
Ricardo José Herrera - Dominican
Due to the tight schedule of the hotel project, we had to adjust the usage quantity several times. GERITEL WIRE supplier was very flexible in terms of delivery and packaging, with fast delivery times. The wire reels were clearly labeled, making on-site counting and distribution very convenient.
