Reliable under heavy load

The NY2Y is a low-voltage cable for use in power plants, industrial facilities, switching stations, and local distribution networks. It is suitable for fixed installation indoors, in cable ducts, outdoors, in water, and underground – wherever strong mechanical stress is expected during installation and operation. The construction complies with TP PRAKAB 16/03 based on VDE 0276-603.

Detailed construction

The cable consists of a copper conductor, available as solid round (RE), stranded round (RM), or sector-shaped stranded (SM). The PVC core insulation ensures electrical safety, while the cores are stranded together and protected by a common EPDM sheath. The outer sheath made of HDPE (black, UV-resistant) makes the NY2Y particularly resistant to abrasion, moisture, and environmental influences.

Typical applications

NY2Y is ideally suited for applications with increased requirements for mechanical strength and weather resistance. Typical fields of use include power distribution in industrial plants, power stations, or transformer stations – but also in environments with moisture, direct sunlight, or chemical exposure.
