      What this product is for

      This ACWU90 aluminium armoured cable is used for 600V power distribution, feeder runs, and service entrance wiring in Canadian commercial, industrial, and utility-related installations. It is built with RW90 XLPE insulated aluminium conductors, an aluminium bonding wire, and a black PVC jacket for wet or dry locations.

      Use for

      • Exposed or concealed wiring
      • Wet or dry locations
      • Direct burial installations
      • Service entrance above or below ground
      • Ventilated, non-ventilated, and ladder-type cable trays
      • Hazardous locations where ACWU90 is specified

      Avoid for

      • Applications above 600V
      • Installations requiring copper conductors specifically
      • Projects where cable size, bend radius, or termination compatibility have not been confirmed

      Best for

      Best for electricians and contractors needing a jacketed aluminium armoured cable for outdoor, underground, or industrial feeder work where mechanical protection and wet-location suitability matter.

      Installed in

      Typically installed in commercial buildings, industrial facilities, service entrances, outdoor distribution runs, and buried power feeds. With an approximate overall diameter of 1.38 in (35.1 mm), confirm connector sizing, support spacing, and bending space before ordering.

      Why this product exists

      ACWU90 provides a Canadian armoured cable option for installations that need aluminium conductors, mechanical protection, sunlight-resistant jacketing, and direct burial capability in one cable assembly.

      Compared with similar products

      Compared with standard building wire in conduit, ACWU90 can reduce field labour where an armoured, jacketed cable is preferred. Compared with copper armoured cable, aluminium ACWU90 is typically chosen to reduce material cost and weight on longer feeder runs. As a rule of thumb, always verify ampacity, voltage drop, and termination ratings for the actual run length and equipment. Actual performance depends on installation conditions, insulation, layout, and local electrical code.
