How to Choose the Right Electrical Cable for Building and Industrial Projects in Kenya
A practical guide to cable selection: understanding copper purity, KEBS compliance, insulation types, and calculating voltage drop for safety and longevity.

Perfect wires powering possibilities
Proudly Made in Kenya · KEBS certified cable manufacturer

Steel Wire Armoured (SWA) and Aluminium Wire Armoured (AWA) cables engineered for direct burial, underground ducting, and heavy industrial power distribution across Kenya.
Underground power networks, industrial plants, direct burial installations, cable trenches, and mains feeds where mechanical protection is vital.
Plain annealed high-conductivity stranded copper (Cu) or aluminium (Al) meeting KEBS and IEC standards.
Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) or high-grade PVC insulation offering high thermal endurance and dielectric strength.
Single layer of galvanized steel wires (SWA) for multi-core cables, or aluminium wires (AWA) for single-core cables to avoid eddy currents.
Tough, UV-stabilised flame-retardant PVC or LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) outer sheath resistant to weathering and soil chemicals.
Robust mechanical resistance against impact, crush, and rodent damage; high current-carrying capacity; long operational lifespan in harsh soil conditions.
Manufactured to KS 04-187, BS 5467, BS 6724, and IEC 60502-1.
Available in 2-core, 3-core, 4-core, and 5-core from 1.5mm² up to 400mm².
