Power cable YKY 0,6/1 kV 5x1.5 mm² RE YKY-5X1,5-1KV NYY

Power Cable YKY 5x1.5 – Reliable Cable for Electrical Installations

The YKY 5x1.5 cable is a universal power cable designed for transmitting electrical energy under various conditions. It performs reliably in both fixed installations and applications requiring flexibility. Constructed with copper conductors insulated with polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and an outer sheath made of the same material, it ensures safe and efficient operation. This cable is particularly recommended for use in soil, cable ducts, and indoor installations.

Construction and Applications

The YKY 5x1.5 cable features a robust design that ensures durability and resistance to damage. It contains five copper conductors, each with a cross-section of 1.5 mm², individually insulated with PVC. The conductors are twisted, enhancing cable flexibility and simplifying installation. Additionally, the cable includes a protective earth conductor (PE), significantly improving safety. As a result, it is suitable for:

• Electrical installations in residential and industrial buildings
• Power supply networks for electrical equipment
• Power plants and industrial facilities
• Electrical distribution boards
• Underground installations (directly in soil or in cable ducts)

Key Features and Benefits

• Durable Construction: Copper conductors with PVC insulation and sheathing ensure long-term performance even under harsh conditions.
• Safety: The protective earth conductor provides effective protection against electric shock.
• Flexibility: Twisted conductors facilitate routing even in confined spaces.
• Wide Application: Suitable for diverse electrical installations—both indoor and outdoor.
• Weather Resistance: The PVC sheath protects against moisture, UV radiation, and other environmental factors.
• Compliance with Standards: Meets requirements of EN 60332-1-2 standard for flame retardancy.
• Rated Voltage: Designed for operation at 0.6/1 kV—the standard voltage in most electrical installations.
• Operating Temperature Range: Functions reliably between -30°C and +70°C.

The YKY 5x1.5 cable is a dependable choice for professionals and DIY installers alike, offering reliable performance and long-term safety. Always ensure proper cable cross-section selection based on the load of your installation! Minimum bending radius is 138 mm, facilitating installation even in tight spaces.
