Nuclear Solutions & Applications

Future-proof cable solutions for modern nuclear technologies

For over 40 years, Habia has been developing and supplying specialised cables for nuclear power stations, research reactors and modern reactor designs worldwide. Using radiation-resistant materials, nuclear-qualified designs and comprehensive engineeringexpertise, we offer reliable cable systems for safety-critical systems as well as measurement, control, communication and power applications. The result is durable, certified and reliable cable solutions designed for service lives of up to 60 years and beyond.

A versatile portfolio, designed to meet the challenges of modern nuclear power stations.

Solutions for nuclear applications

  • Radiation-resistant, high-performance materials ensure long-term operational reliability even at high cumulative radiation doses. 

  • LOCA-qualified cable systems retain their electrical integrity during and after coolant loss incidents. 

  • Halogen-free and flame-retardant designs minimise smoke production and the release of corrosive or toxic gases. 

  • EMC-optimised cable designs ensure interference-free signal and data transmission in safety-critical systems. 

  • Compact cable architectures reduce space requirements and installation effort, particularly in refurbishment projects and SMR projects. 


Resistance to harsh environments

  • High resistance to radiation 

  • Temperature resistance over long periods of operation 

  • Resistance to moisture and high-pressure steam 

  • Resistance to chemicals and decontamination agents 

  • Long-term stability under combined thermal and radiological ageing 


Safety and precision down to the very last detail. Next-generation cables for the world’s most critical power supplies.

  • Thin-walled materials enable a design that is 30 per cent more compact. This results in weight and space savings, as well as easier installation. 

  • Environmental qualification (IEEE 383:2003 and IEC 60780:1998) for 60 years of normal operation and 1 year under fault conditions 

  • Halogen-free materials with low smoke emission and low toxicity 

  • Fire test in accordance with IEEE 1202-2006

Tested. Certified. Proven.

Quality – our essential benchmark. We adhere to:

ISO 9001:2015
ASME NQA-1
NRC 10CFR50 app B
KTA 1401
ISO 14001
