Cables are designed to carry high earth fault currents comparable with system symmetrical fault currents. 3-core Type A cables are supplied with galvanised steel wire armouring. Single-core cables are normally supplied armoured with a single layer of aluminium wires (Type A1) but when the cable are to be installed in a mechaniccally protected environment, where external damage is unlikely, they may be supplied with PVC sheath only (Type A2). The earth fault current is carried in a Type A2 cable by the metallic screen, which comprises two or more helically applied copper tapes.
