Power cable YKXS 0,6/1 kV 1x500 RMC YKXS-1X500-1KV

Power Cable YKXS 0.6/1 kV – Reliability and Safety in Every Installation

This single-core YKXS 0.6/1 kV power cable with a cross-section of 500 mm² is a robust solution for both professional installers and end users. Designed for power transmission in applications requiring high mechanical and electrical resistance. Manufactured by ELPAR, this cable features superior build quality and full compliance with applicable standards.

Construction and Application

The YKXS cable is a single-core design with cross-linked polyethylene insulation (XLPE VPE) and an outer sheath made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC). The copper conductor with a 500 mm² cross-section ensures efficient current flow, while the absence of armor makes it lighter and easier to install in locations where additional mechanical protection is not required. It is primarily used in fixed installations demanding high reliability and safety in power transmission. Ideal for distributing energy in public utility buildings, industrial facilities, and distribution networks.

Key Features and Benefits

• Large Conductor Cross-Section (500 mm²): Enables transmission of high currents, essential for applications with significant power demands.
• Durable XLPE Insulation: Provides excellent dielectric properties and resistance to high temperatures (up to 90°C), ensuring long-term, safe operation.
• PVC Sheath: Protects the cable against external factors such as moisture, UV radiation, and mechanical damage.
• Flexibility: Despite its large conductor size, the cable maintains adequate flexibility, simplifying installation and routing.
• Compliance with Standards: Meets requirements of EN 13501-6 (fire reaction class Eca), ensuring fire safety of the installation.
• Easy Installation: The absence of armor simplifies work for installers and reduces project completion time.
• Installation Temperature Range: -5°C to +5°C. Enables cable installation even under challenging weather conditions.

Technical Specifications – What You Need to Know

The YKXS-1X500-1KV cable has a rated voltage of 1 kV and an insulation voltage of at least 600 V. The conductor diameter is 34.6 mm, and the approximate outer cable diameter is also 34.6 mm. The minimum bending radius during fixed installation is 519 mm — this must be considered when designing the cable route to avoid insulation damage. Conductor class is Class 2 (stranded), which enhances flexibility during installation and operation. The absence of a screen means no additional protection against electromagnetic interference — this should be taken into account when selecting the cable for specialized applications.
