Polycab Industrial Braided Cable – PVC, Tinned Copper or GI Wire Braid, Transparent or PVC Sheath, IEC 60227-7

The Polycab Industrial Braided Cable is a flexible PVC control cable with a tinned copper braid (screen) or a GI wire braid (mechanical protection) under a transparent or PVC sheath. Polycab's catalogue lists it as conforming to IEC 60227-7 and IS 694. It is supplied at a price on request: cable prices depend on the construction, the quantity and the raw-material prices on the day.

Polycab India Limited is India's largest manufacturer of wires and cables, with 27 manufacturing facilities, a network of 4,300+ dealers and distributors, 2,00,000+ retailers and an export presence in 84 countries (polycab.com, October 2026). Its cable range runs from house wires and 1.1 kV power and control cables to MV and EHV power cables, with instrumentation, solar, railway, marine, mining, fire-survival and other special cables. Jai Enterprises supplies Polycab cables from Bhilai and Raipur all over Chhattisgarh - Bhilai, Raipur, Durg, Korba, Bilaspur, Raigarh, Jagdalpur, Kanker, Ambikapur and every other district - and across India.

Is this the right one for you?

Check these four things before you order:

• The cable connects control or signal circuits on machines and panels, with occasional movement at most.
• You know whether you need a screen (tinned copper braid) or mechanical protection (GI braid).
• Your circuits are within 300/500 V, the range of IEC 60227-7.
• You know the cores and size.

Construction and standards

• Conductor: annealed bare bunched copper
• Insulation: PVC
• Inner sheath: PVC
• Braid: tinned copper wire or GI wire
• Outer sheath: transparent PVC or PVC
• IEC 60227-7: PVC flexible control cables, screened and unscreened, up to 300/500 V

Why choose the Polycab Industrial Braided Cable

• Tinned copper braid - a screen against electrical noise
• GI wire braid - flexible mechanical protection
• Transparent sheath - the braid stays visible for inspection
• Flexible bunched copper conductors

How to choose and specify it

Copper or steel braid. A tinned copper braid is a screen against interference - the type often called a CY cable. A GI (steel) wire braid protects the cores mechanically - the type often called an SY cable. Both are commonly finished in a transparent sheath.

Voltage. IEC 60227-7 covers PVC flexible control cables up to 300/500 V; use power cables for higher voltages.

Earthing the braid. Terminate a copper braid screen in a suitable (EMC-type) cable gland and earth it as your control-system practice requires; bond a GI braid to earth at the gland too.

Flexing duty. These cables suit connections with occasional movement. For robots, drag chains or continuous flexing, ask for a cable designed for that duty.

Where it is used

• Machine tools and production lines
• Control panels and instrument connections
• Conveyor and packaging machines
• Machine connections with occasional movement
• Measuring and control circuits near drives (tinned copper braid type)

Frequently asked questions

What is the price of the Polycab Industrial Braided Cable?

The Polycab Industrial Braided Cable is supplied at a price on request, because cable prices depend on the construction, the quantity and the raw-material prices on the day. Call +91 9340081159 for a quotation.

What is the difference between the tinned copper and GI braid?

The tinned copper braid screens the cores from electrical noise (a CY-type cable); the GI steel braid protects them from mechanical damage (an SY-type cable).

Why a transparent sheath?

It lets the braid be seen, so damage is easy to spot during inspection.

What voltage is it for?

IEC 60227-7 covers PVC flexible control cables up to 300/500 V.

Where can I buy the Polycab Industrial Braided Cable in Chhattisgarh?

From Jai Enterprises, Bhilai and Raipur, which supplies Polycab cables to every district of Chhattisgarh and across India. Call +91 9340081159 for the price, stock and lead time.
