This 3x16mm² locomotive cable is engineered to deliver reliable three-phase power or multi-circuit functionality within the demanding environment of railway rolling stock. Designed with durability and safety as core principles, it integrates three 16mm² conductors within a single, rugged construction to simplify installation, save space, and ensure consistent performance under vibration, temperature extremes, and mechanical stress.

Key Features & Benefits:

  • Integrated Multi-Core Design: Combines three precisely sized 16mm² conductors within one cable, perfect for three-phase power distribution or separate auxiliary circuits, reducing installation complexity and bundle size.

  • Superior Durability: Features a heavy-duty, oil-resistant, and flame-retardant sheath that protects against abrasion, chemicals, and fluids common in railway operations.

  • High Resilience to Harsh Conditions: Rated for extended temperature ranges and engineered to withstand constant vibration and flexing, ensuring long-term electrical integrity in mobile applications.

  • Enhanced Safety Compliance: Constructed with materials that inhibit flame propagation and often feature low-smoke, zero-halogen (LSZH) options to meet stringent railway safety standards (e.g., EN 45545, DIN 5510).

  • Standardized Reliability: Manufactured to comply with key railway cable specifications such as DIN EN 50306 for rolling stock, guaranteeing performance and interoperability.

Primary Applications:

  • Three-phase AC power supply lines for auxiliary systems in locomotives, electric multiple units (EMUs), and metro cars.

  • Fixed wiring for major auxiliary equipment groups requiring multiple protected circuits.

  • Power distribution within coach junction boxes and between vehicle sections.

  • Wiring in other heavy-duty transportation equipment requiring robust, multi-core power cables.
