Poly-laminated aluminium cable wrap is a cable insulation or shielding material that combines layers of polymeric materials with aluminium through a lamination process. This design aims to offer a balanced set of properties to the cable. The polymeric layers contribute to electrical insulation, preventing conductors from contacting each other, while the aluminium layer provides a moisture-resistant barrier. This combination enhances the cable's durability, mechanical protection and flexibility. Additionally, the aluminium’s heat reflectivity is potentially improved, making the cable suitable for applications where heat management is crucial. Overall, poly-laminated aluminium cable wraps find use in industries requiring electrical insulation, moisture resistance and mechanical strength, such as in power distribution and telecommunications.
All poly-laminated aluminium cable wrap has been included in the mandatory ISI Certification Scheme under IS 16012: 2012.
This standard outlines the criteria for poly-laminated aluminium cable wrap.
This product cannot be exported, imported, or sold in the Indian consumer market without bearing the ISI Mark.
Indian Standards Institute, or ISI was renamed the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) in 1987. The official mark that the Bureau of Indian Standards provides for manufacturers of various goods is the ISI Mark. It is used to indicate compliance with Indian standards (IS) set by the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) and has been used as a conformity marking for industrial products. Manufacturers received permission from BIS to use the ISI Mark on items that comply with relevant Indian requirements through the product certification program.
Only manufacturers (domestic or foreign) who produce the finished product will be awarded ISI Certification. This will not be given to any product importers, traders, dealers, or distributors.
The following documentation is required to get an ISI certification:

There are two approaches for Indian manufacturers to become certified with the ISI Mark:
Regular Procedure
With the possible exception of cases deemed "All India first," which might take up to 180 days, the licensing procedure is expected to be finished in 120 days. This timeline starts on the day the application is received, assuming that at different points in time the documentation, unit assessment, and product conformance are all deemed acceptable.
Step 1: Manufacturing Unit Customization in Compliance with Applicable Indian Standards
Step 2: Submission of the Application Form

Simplified Procedure
This is a much faster process than the standard procedure. After a factory inspection is deemed satisfactory and the initial evaluation establishes that the sample complies with the applicable Indian Standard(s), the license application process is expected to be finished in 30 days.
Step 1: Adapting the Manufacturing Unit to Comply with the Relevant Indian Standard
Step 2: Sample Testing
