Power cable YKY 0.6/1 kV 5×120 YKY-5X120-1KV NYY

Power Cable YKY 5x120 – A Reliable Choice for Underground Installations

The YKY 5x120 cable is a robust power cable designed for fixed installations, particularly for underground use. Constructed with copper conductors of 120 mm² cross-section, insulated with PVC, it ensures safe and efficient operation in networks with a rated voltage up to 1 kV. The five-conductor design enables power supply to multiple loads, while color-coded conductor identification simplifies correct installation and future maintenance.

Construction and Applications

The YKY cable features a round cross-section without armor or shielding, making it ideal for direct burial in areas where mechanical hazards are absent. Its durable outer PVC sheath protects the cable against moisture and chemical damage, ensuring excellent performance in:

• Underground installations: Powering buildings, industrial facilities, and outdoor lighting.
• Construction: Supplying power to construction sites and temporary structures.
• Agriculture: Powering irrigation systems, pumps, and farm lighting.
• Industrial machinery and equipment power supply.

Key Features and Benefits

• High-strength copper conductors: Ensure low resistance and efficient energy transmission.
• PVC insulation: Provides excellent electrical insulation and resistance to environmental conditions.
• Five conductors: Allows powering multiple devices with a single cable.
• Color-coded conductor identification: Simplifies installation and future servicing.
• Flexibility: Despite its large cross-section, the cable maintains sufficient flexibility for easy handling and laying.
• UV resistance: The PVC sheath protects against degradation caused by sunlight (though this is not a critical factor for buried cables).
• Long service life: High-quality materials and manufacturing ensure reliable operation for many years.
• Minimum bending radius: 612 mm: Must be observed during installation to prevent cable damage.

The YKY 5x120 cable is an investment in a safe and durable electrical installation—ideal for both professionals and end users. Always follow proper safety precautions during installation and comply with applicable standards and safety regulations.
