Halogen-free power cable N2XH-J 0,6/1kV 3x16 RE (Dca) N2XH-J-3X16-1KV

Halogen-free power cable N2XH-J – safety and reliability in one

The N2XH-J 0.6/1 kV power cable is an advanced solution designed for powering buildings, industrial facilities, and electric vehicle charging infrastructure. Manufactured from high-quality materials, it ensures safe and efficient energy transmission while meeting stringent fire safety standards. This cable is particularly recommended for locations with elevated fire protection requirements, where minimizing the risk of fire spread, smoke, and toxic gas emission is a priority.

Construction and application

The N2XH-J cable features a robust design. Copper conductors with a cross-section of 16 mm², insulated with cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE), provide excellent conductivity and mechanical strength. Stranded conductors simplify installation and enhance cable flexibility. The absence of armor makes the cable lighter and easier to route—a feature appreciated by installers. The outer polyolefin sheath protects against mechanical damage and environmental exposure.

This cable is widely used in fixed installations, both indoors (on plaster, in grooves, in concrete) and outdoors, provided it is protected from direct sunlight. It performs optimally in powering industrial buildings, public facilities, and electric vehicle charging stations. Certified by VDE, it guarantees reliable and safe operation.

Safety and compliance with standards

One of the key features of the N2XH-J cable is its halogen-free construction. This means that in the event of fire, it does not emit toxic gases that pose a threat to human health and life. Additionally, the cable complies with EN 13501-6, achieving a fire reaction class of Dca, s2, d0, a1—confirming its high level of fire safety.

The fire reaction class Dca indicates limited contribution to fire spread. The parameters s2 (smoke emission) and d0 (formation of flaming droplets/particles) indicate low smoke emission and no formation of flaming droplets during fire. The acidity class a1 confirms no corrosion caused by gases released during combustion.

The cable meets fire reaction standards: fire reaction class Dca, smoke emission s2, flaming droplets/particles d0, and acidity class a1, in accordance with EN 13501-6. The minimum bending radius during fixed installation is 196.8 mm, facilitating installation even in challenging conditions. The maximum allowable conductor temperature is 90°C, ensuring long-term, reliable operation even under heavy load.
