Market Overview:
The global low voltage cable market reached a value of US$ 56.4 Billion in 2020. Low voltage (LV) cables are used for transferring power to electrical equipment that has a small voltage rating. They can handle 50-1000 volts in case of alternating current and between 75-1500 volts of direct current. These cables are manufactured using solid or stranded aluminum and flexible copper conductors. High-quality LV cables are halogen-free, fire-resistant and ensure efficient use of energy, quicker data transfer and seamless operations. LV cables are primarily used for low-stress applications in automation systems, infrastructure, video surveillance, sounds and security alarms, etc. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the global low voltage cable market to exhibit moderate growth during the next five years.
The rising energy demand and incorporation of smart grid networks across the globe are the key factors driving the growth of the market. The growing need for uninterrupted power supply in various industries has increased power generation, distribution and transmission across various regions, which is resulting in enhanced utilization of LV cables. They are also used in the nacelle of wind turbines to connect the transformer to the low-voltage generator. The rising trend of incorporating renewable energy resources in the power generation process is also expected to drive the market further. There has been a rise in the demand for efficient power transmission equipment that can be integrated with smart devices on account of the burgeoning population, along with growing urbanization and digitalization. Furthermore, smart grids and other power systems use automated electronic hardware and software such as switches, relays and meters that require LV cables as they enable smooth functioning and controlling of the operational processes of the network.
