Extensive cable services

Cable Workshops

Ampcontrol cable workshops are strategically located across New South Wales, Queensland and Western Australia to ensure support is always close by.

Our fully certified facilities are staffed by highly experienced technicians who can inspect, repair, and test a wide range of medium-voltage and high-voltage cables to relevant AS/NZS standards, including AS/NZS 1747, the recognised standard for the repair of cables used in hazardous areas.

Cable Sales and Hire

We sell and hire a complete range of medium- and high-voltage cable systems for short- and long-term requirements. Every product in our range is manufactured to ensure safe, reliable power distribution across your electrical system — constructed with quality insulation materials, copper (Cu) or aluminium (Al) conductors, and protective layers designed to withstand the pressures of Australian operating environments. Our range of high voltage cables includes:

  • paper-insulated lead-covered

  • XLPE (cross-linked polyethylene insulation material)

  • flexible armoured cables

Our reeling cables are designed for frequent on- and off-reeling from a cable drum or reeler, while our trailing cables are designed to be moved with a mobile apparatus.

We also stock a range of specialist lighting, voicecom, composite, and fibre-optic cable, including H3RO, as well as cable accessories such as plugs, couplers, receptacles, and glands.

Onsite Support and Vehicles

Our on-site cable services cover fault location, repairs, testing, and cable relocation via our specialist cable reeler trucks, featuring a remote-controlled indexing arm for safe, efficient cable handling within minutes, without manual intervention.

We also offer on-site inspection packages that deliver a personalised approach to managing your cable fleet - regular condition assessments, compliance checks, and prioritised maintenance recommendations to keep your cables free from unexpected failure.

High Voltage Cable Jointing and Terminations

High-voltage cable jointing is a specialist service requiring certified technicians and precise execution. We deliver jointing services on paper-insulated cables and XLPE (cross-linked polyethylene), as well as mining cable terminations using EPR (Ethylene Propylene Rubber) insulation for draglines, shovels, and stacker/reclaimer reeling cables.

Cable Management and Handling

Managing cable assets across multiple remote sites with limited visibility is one of the most common challenges facing mining and industrial operations. We developed CableTrack — our custom-designed, patented cable management software — to give you comprehensive digital visibility of your entire cable fleet through a single platform.

CableTrack enables you to:

  • Track cable location, condition, and compliance status in real time

  • Schedule preventative maintenance based on actual cable data rather than reactive repairs

  • Access detailed inspection and test records for every cable in your fleet

  • Generate compliance reports for audits and regulatory requirements

By connecting your cable fleet data in one system, CableTrack helps you make informed decisions about cable replacement, repair, and redeployment — reducing costs and minimising unplanned downtime.
