Flat Multicore
The APAR Alum Shakti Flat Multicore Cable is a next-generation solution for submersible pump applications, meticulously engineered to combine performance with superior value. Designed with a stranded bare aluminium conductor, this cable provides a highly effective and cost-efficient alternative to traditional copper cables. With its robust
High-Temperature-Resistant (HR) PVC insulation and sheath, it is built to withstand the most challenging environments—from deep underground to muddy or wet surfaces. The APAR 3 core flat submersible pump cable ensures a reliable and consistent power supply, delivering exceptional mechanical properties and a long operational lifespan.
Multistranded Aluminium Conductor
A lightweight yet powerful core that offers a significant cost advantage over copper, making it the ideal choice for large-scale projects and long cable runs.
Exceptional Mechanical & Electrical Properties
With a durable sheath and excellent conductor construction, this cable offers reliable power transmission while resisting physical damage and environmental factors.
Features & Advantages
The APAR Alum Shakti Flat Multicore Cable is more than just a wire; it is a meticulously engineered solution. The flexible aluminium conductor allows for easy installation and handling, particularly in the confined spaces of a borewell. Its flat shape reduces drag during installation and retrieval, preventing the cable from getting snagged.
The HR PVC insulated cable provides a high level of safety and reliability, capable of withstanding the rigors of underwater operation and maintaining its electrical properties over time. The cable’s low conductor resistance ensures minimal power loss, contributing to the overall efficiency of your pump motor.
The following table details the technical specifications of our 3-core flat submersible aluminium cable, demonstrating a commitment to transparency and quality.
- Resistance to Tough Environments: The specialised HR PVC compound makes the cable resistant to oil, grease, and moisture, ensuring it remains operational in muddy, contaminated, or submerged conditions.
- Cost-Effective and Sustainable: Aluminium is a highly sustainable and cost-effective material. Choosing this cable not only helps you save on upfront costs but also contributes to a more resource-efficient solution.

Frequently asked questions
Why should I choose an aluminium submersible cable over a copper one?
An aluminium submersible cable is a highly effective, cost-effective alternative. Aluminium is lighter and significantly less expensive than copper, allowing for substantial savings, especially on large projects or long cable runs, without compromising on performance or safety.
Is this cable truly resistant to water and oil?
Yes. The outer sheath is made of a specially formulated, high-abrasion-resistant PVC that is impermeable to water, oil, and grease. This ensures the cable’s inner cores remain protected, maintaining electrical integrity in harsh, submerged environments.
What is the maximum current carrying capacity of this cable?
The maximum current carrying capacity varies depending on the cable size. For example, the 3C x 2.5 sq.mm size has a max current capacity of 20 Amps, while the 3C x 16 sq.mm size can handle up to 53 Amps. Please refer to the technical specifications table for specific ratings.
