Do you know how the cost of the cable is estimated

Material consumption


The weight of copper is accustomed to calculation method without conversion: cross-sectional area *8.89=kg/km such as 120 square millimeter calculation: 120*8.89=1066.8kg/km


1. The amount of conductor: (Kg/Km )=d^2 * 0.7854 * G * N * K1 * K2 * C /


d = copper wire diameter G = copper specific gravity N = number of wires K1 = copper wire stranding rate K2 = core wire stranding rate C = number of insulated core wires


2. Insulation amount: (Kg/Km) = (D^2-d^2 )* 0.7854 * G * C * K2 D = insulation outer diameter d = conductor outer diameter G = insulation specific gravity K2 = core wire stranding rate C = Number of insulated core wires


3. The amount of outer cover: (Kg/Km) = (D1^2-D^2) * 0.7854 * G D1 = completed outer diameter D = upper process outer diameter G = insulation specific gravity


4. The amount of strapping: (Kg/Km) = D^2 * 0.7854 * t * G * Z D = the outer diameter of the upper process t = the thickness of the strap G = the specific gravity of the strap Z = the overlap rate (1/4Lap = 1.25)


5. The amount of winding: (Kg/Km) = d^2 * 0.7854 * G * N * Z d = copper wire diameter N = number of wires G = specific gravity Z = twisting rate


6. Knitting amount: (Kg/Km) = d^2 * 0.7854 * T * N * G / cos θ θ = atan( 2 * 3.1416 * (D + d * 2 )) * mesh number / 25.4 / T d = Braided copper wire diameter T = number of spindles N = number of each spindle G = specific gravity of copper

Cotton tape -0.55; PP rope -0.55; cotton yarn -0.48


Materials other than conductors


1. Sheath thickness: outer diameter before extrusion×0.035+1 (in accordance with power cables, the nominal thickness of the single-core cable sheath should not be less than 1.4mm, and the nominal thickness of the multi-core cable should not be less than 1.8mm)


2. Online measurement of sheath thickness: sheath thickness = (periphery after squeezing the sheath-perimeter before squeezing the sheath) / 2 π or sheath thickness = (perimeter after squeezing the sheath-before squeezing the sheath Perimeter) ×0.1592


3. The thinnest point of insulation thickness: nominal value×90%-0.1


4. The thinnest point of non-armored shielding sheath: nominal value×85%-0.1


5. The thinnest point of armored or shielded sheath: nominal value×80%-0.2


6. Steel wire armor: Number of wires = {π×(outer diameter of inner sheath + wire diameter)} Steel wire diameter×λ) Weight ÷( Quantity = π×wire diameter²×ρ×L ×number of wires×λ


7. Weight of insulation and sheath = π×(outer diameter before extrusion + thickness) × thickness × L × ρ


8. The weight of the steel strip = {π×(outer diameter before wrapping+2×thickness-1)×2×thickness×ρ×L} /(1+K)


9. The weight of the tape = {π×(outer diameter before wrapping + number of layers × thickness) × number of layers × thickness × ρ×L /(1±K) where: K is the overlap rate or gap rate, if it is Overlap, it is 1-K; if it is a gap, it is 1+K; ρ is the specific gravity of the material; L is the cable length; λ is the stranding coefficient
