Understanding the difference between Low Tension (LT) and High Tension (HT) cables is fundamental for anyone working in infrastructure, construction, or energy distribution. This blog simplifies the technicalities and dives into typical use cases for both types to help you make the right decision.
LT cables are used for voltage levels up to 1.1 kV and are typically deployed in residential, commercial, and light industrial settings. These cables are cost-effective, easy to install, and ideal for low-load applications.
HT cables are designed for voltage levels above 1.1 kV, often used in heavy industrial, utility, or grid systems. They offer superior insulation and are built to handle high-capacity loads across long distances.
Choosing between LT and HT cables depends on system voltage, application scale, safety regulations, and future scalability. Our technical team helps clients assess the exact requirements and ensure optimal product selection.
We include easy-to-follow visual aids in this blog to compare LT and HT cable features. These tools support faster, more accurate decision-making for engineers and project planners.
