The correct method for storing and transporting power cable products

The storage and transportation of power cable products are two very important links. It is as important as the quality of the cable. If the storage and transportation methods are improper, it will damage the quality of power cable products and affect the safety of use. It may also lead to unnecessary disasters. Therefore, the storage and transportation of power cable products are issues that need attention. The following low-voltage power cable manufacturers have listed several main issues that need to be noted.

When storing power cables, it is strictly prohibited to come into contact with acids, alkalis, and mineral oils, and they should be stored separately from corrosive substances;

In the warehouse where power cables are stored, harmful gases must not damage the insulation layer and corrode the metal.

Avoid storing power cables as open as possible, and cable reels are not allowed to be laid flat;

During storage, the cable should be wound regularly. When rolling, the storage tray will rotate downwards and upwards to prevent the bottom from getting damp and rotting. When storing, please always pay attention to whether the power cable sealing sleeve is intact;

The storage period of power cables is limited to the product delivery period, generally not exceeding one and a half years, and the longest not exceeding two years;

It is strictly prohibited to drop power cables or power cable reels from a height during transportation, especially at low temperatures. Throwing or dropping power cables may cause insulation and sheath to rupture;

When lifting packaging, it is strictly prohibited to lift multiple pallets at the same time. On vehicles, ships, and other transportation vehicles, power cable reels should be secured by appropriate methods to prevent collision or overturning, and to prevent mechanical damage to power cables.

The lifespan of power cables depends on the quality of the wires and the environment in which they are installed and used. Power cables are mainly insulated by the outer layer of the sheath. After a long time, low-voltage power cables will be corroded by corrosive gases, and their insulation performance will gradually decrease. It will gradually age and become harder, brittle, or peel off. At this point, it will not be insulated.
