Power cable N2XH-J 0,6/1 kV 5x16 mm² RE (B2ca) N2XH-J-5X16-1KV (B2CA)

Halogen-free power cable – safety and installation reliability

This N2XH-J power cable, with a cross-section of 5x16 mm², is designed for demanding applications where safety and fire protection are critical. Manufactured with copper conductors insulated with cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) and a halogen-free sheath, it minimizes the risk of toxic gas emission in case of fire. This solution is ideal for both installers and end-users who prioritize high safety standards.

Construction and application

The N2XH-J cable is intended for the fixed installation of electrical energy in indoor and outdoor environments. Its five-conductor copper construction ensures adequate current-carrying capacity, while the absence of armor provides flexibility and ease of installation. With a fire reaction class of B2ca, it complies with stringent fire safety regulations. This cable is suitable for public buildings, industrial facilities, and residential installations where high fire resistance and absence of toxic emissions are required.

Key features and benefits

• Halogen-free: The outer sheath made of halogen-free polyolefin minimizes toxic gas emission during combustion, enhancing safety for people and property.
• Temperature resistance: Maximum allowable conductor temperature is 90°C, enabling operation under demanding thermal conditions.
• Flexibility: The absence of armor simplifies installation and routing in confined spaces.
• Mechanical durability: Copper conductors ensure excellent electrical conductivity and resistance to mechanical damage.
• Compliance with standards: Meets requirements of EN 13501-6 (B2ca, s1b, d0, a1) for fire reaction, guaranteeing safe usage.
• Stranded conductors: Enhance cable flexibility and ease of laying.
• Color-coded identification: Facilitates correct conductor connection during installation.
• Class 1 conductors: Single-wire construction ensures good flexibility while maintaining adequate mechanical strength.

Additional information: The cable’s outer diameter is approximately 14 mm, and the minimum bending radius during fixed installation is 168 mm. This cable is not intended for marine environments or for airport lighting applications.
