Marine cable for the real installation
The datasheet tells you the cable is 0.6/1kV. The installation tells you whether it needs a screen, armour, a mud-resistant sheath or a halogen-free jacket. These are the seven application families we support most often.
Voltage, interference, route, environment
Four questions determine most marine cable specifications. We use them to move from a generic product family to the construction that belongs in the project.
Shipbuilding & Ship Repair
Cable schedules for bulk carriers, container vessels, tankers and offshore support vessels, from design review through to drum-marked delivery at the yard.
Offshore Drilling Platforms
Mud-, oil- and hydrocarbon-resistant constructions for drilling, production and processing decks in continuous offshore service.
Offshore Wind
Power, control and communication cable for turbines, installation vessels and operations and maintenance craft.
Ports & Shore Power
Cold-ironing and port-equipment cable for shore-to-ship supply and fixed port installations.
Cruise & Passenger Ships
LSZH constructions for accommodation blocks, public spaces and safety-critical circuits.
Navigation & Automation
Screened control and instrumentation cable for radar, bridge systems and integrated automation networks.
Port Machinery & Cranes
Heavy-duty flexible and reeling cable for harbour cranes, container handling and shipyard equipment.

Not sure which family?
Send the application description, the voltage, the route and any hazardous-area classification. We will map it to a construction and explain the trade-offs.
- Voltage class and fault level
- Drive or switching equipment nearby
- Tray, duct, buried or on a reel
- Fire, smoke and halogen requirements
- Hazardous-area classification and class society
Where the cable actually goes
Routes, plant and project conditions from our own deliveries — the same inputs that decide the construction quoted for your line.
