Australian Cable Initiative

Ensuring safe and compliant cable is always our top priority.

As one of Australia’s leading cable manufacturers, we are responsible for powering a huge portion of the country’s homes and workplaces. Making safe choices when purchasing cable has never been more critical, because defective, non-compliant cables are unsafe, costly, and highly dangerous.

What is the Australian Cable Initiative?

The ACI is the cable industry in Australia working together to provide a second line of defence to improve the safety and compliance of cables in the Australian market.

It promotes the safety and compliance of electrical cables used in buildings and provides a testing and surveillance program that monitors electrical cables manufactured, sold, and used in Australia.

Moreover, the Members of the ACI commit to maintaining safe and compliant product by testing each other’s cables for safety and compliance within the Australian Standards framework.

We've got you covered.

Nexans Australia is a foundation member of the Australian Cable Initiative (ACI), giving customers the highest confidence in the safety of all electrical cables that we manufacture and sell within Australia. As part of the ACI, our duty is to ensure our competitors are also compliant.

When you partner with Nexans you’re using an ACI recognised product, which minimises the risk and liability that comes with installing defective cable.
