Power and control cables; multi-core flexible wires; submersible cables; telecommunication cables; Domestic and industrial cables; and instrumentation cables - the range of products manufactured by Empire Cables strides the entire spectrum of Cables & Wires, positioning the company among the leading manufacturers of world class cables and wires in the country. What's more, a large dealer and distributor network ideally complements the manufacturing activity across the country.

Established in the year 1978, Empire Cables has firmly entrenched itself as a quality manufacturer of speciality electrical wires and cables for a wide variety of applications ranging from agriculture, railways, power transmission, automobiles, etc. The ISO 9001-2000 certified company, under the guidance of Mr Rajesh Aggarwal, Managing Director, caters to the diversified needs of customers, providing them with a comprehensive range of products such as PVC/PE insulated wires, LT-PVC/XLPE power control, instrumentation cables, flexible and House wires. Empire Cables manufactures cables in accordance to the customer specifications also.

The cables are manufactured with aluminium and copper conductors and polymer insulation. Essentially, cables comprise conductors, insulation, inner sheath, armour and outer sheath. The cables are manufactured with solid/stranded circular/shaped aluminium/copper conductors. Stranding makes cables flexible and easy to handle while shaping makes them compact.

Empire copper conductor cables are of the same construction that of cables with aluminium conductor except for high tensile strength, superior conductivity, better flexibility and ease of jointing. Copper cables are used in control, instrumentation, winding, submarine, mining and ship wiring, applications, among others. All conductors are manufactured strictly in accordance with national and international specification - National specifications - IS: 8130, and International specifications - IEC: 60228/BS: 6360.

Insulation also is strictly as per national and international specifications. The cables are designed and manufactured with polymer dielectrics to bear thermal and thermo mechanical stresses safely at continuous normal and short circuit temperature conditions. PVC cables are available with Thermoplastic dielectric, and XLPE cables are available with Thermo setting dielectric. The company is equipped with latest state of the art technology, our quality check-UPS vigilant test equipments develops Zero Defect cables.

Products Range

Multi Core Flexible Cables Wire

Empire PVC single and multi-core flexible cables make a big difference wherever they are installed. They don't merely deliver power, they do so with maximum efficiency and security. With stronger materials, surer conductors and safer insulation, Empire cables have minimized loss while improving electricity transfer and transient. Empire's flexible wires and cords are manufactured as per IS:694/1990 with latest amendments.

Power & Control Cables

These consist of carbon and hydrogen compounds, which essentially contain low-density polyethylene molecules in the form of long flexible chains. On cross-linking, slippage between flexible chains can be prevented. Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) is a thermosetting compound. It softens at the crytahne melting point of polyethylene (85?C to 115?C) and assumes an elastic rubber-like consistency, a property that it retains during further rise of temperature until it becomes carbonised without melting at 250?C to 300?C. All this strengthens LT-XLPE cables against stress cracking and gives them a greater resistance to fight ageing in hot air.

Special Cables - Instrumentation/Screened/Shielded Cables

Instrumentation cables are used in process control systems, AC/DC converters, Space Research and other Modern Processor based instrumentation Circuits. These cables are designed to combat the noise and induction encountered in circuits and help in bringing a clean and accurate signal to the control room.

These are normally made with EC grade bare / tinned copper stranded conductor, PVC Insulated/pair screened with polyester and Mylar tape along with stranded tinned drain wire. Multi Pair Screened cables are available with individual pair screening as well as overall screening OR with overall screening only as per the requirement of the Customer. These are generally armoured with wire/strip. The sheathing is available with FR/FRLS and FS properties as per the requirement of the customer.

Thermocouple Extension/Compensating Cables

These cables are used in the Boilers, Furnaces and Heat Treatment Industry. These are PVC Insulated, cores twisted to form pairs, individually or overall shielded. These can be armoured/unarmoured and with sheathing suitable for FR/FRLS/FS.

Flat Cables for Submersible Pump Motor

Flat cables are manufactured for critical space requirements, protection against indefinite immersion in water under specified conditions, protection against raining water and protection against ingress of small solid foreign bodies.

Flat cables are produced from best quality electrolytic copper drawn, on-line annealed and bunched on automatic manufacturing machines. The conductors are insulated with a special grade of PVC and outer sheath consists of a highly abrasion resistant PVC compound.

Having such a wide portfolio of products, it is no wonder that Empire Cables has emerged as the first choice among consultants, architects, and builders.
