Installation cable YDYp 500V 2x2.5 YDYP5-2X2,5

Universal installation cable for your needs

The YDYp 2x2.5 cable is a reliable solution for electrical installations in residential and commercial buildings. It features flexibility and ease of installation, appreciated by both professional electricians and DIY enthusiasts. Copper conductors with a cross-section of 2.5 mm² ensure safe power transmission, while its flat geometry facilitates routing in confined spaces.

Construction and application

The YDYp cable is a multi-core cable with two copper conductors insulated with polyvinyl chloride (PVC). The entire assembly is covered by an outer PVC sheath, providing additional mechanical protection and resistance to environmental conditions. This cable is designed for fixed installations in dry and humid indoor environments. It is ideal for powering sockets, lighting, and other electrical devices. Thanks to its construction, it is also suitable for use in cable ducts and under plaster.

Key features and benefits

• Copper conductors: guarantee excellent electrical conductivity and reliable connections.
• PVC insulation: provides effective protection against electric shock and mechanical damage.
• Flat geometry: simplifies routing in hard-to-reach areas and under plaster.
• Rated voltage 500V: suitable for standard electrical installations.
• Rated conductor cross-section 2.5 mm²: appropriate for powering most household and industrial appliances.
• Stranded conductors: enhance cable flexibility and ease of installation.
• Fire reaction class Eca: ensures limited flammability, increasing safety during use.
• Low-temperature resistance (down to -5°C): allows installation in a wider range of ambient temperatures.
• Color-coded conductors: simplify correct wiring during installation.

Technical specifications – what you need to know

The YDYp 2x2.5 cable has a minimum bending radius of 45.6 mm for fixed installations. The maximum allowable conductor temperature is 70°C, ensuring safe operation even under heavy load. The cable does not include shielding or protective barrier, contributing to its lower cost and simplified installation. Important to note: the cable contains no halogens and is not oil-resistant – consider this when selecting the installation location. Conductor class is Class 1 – solid core, affecting its flexibility and ease of mechanical processing. Rated voltage U0 is 300V and U is 500V.
