Power cable YKY 5x70 SM 1kV G-107571

Universal power cable YKY 5x70 SM 1kV – reliability and safety in every installation

This five-core power cable YKY 5x70 SM 1kV is a solid solution for both professional installers and end customers. Designed for transmitting electrical energy in circuits with a voltage of up to 1kV, it ensures safe and efficient operation of electrical installations. Made of copper, with PVC insulation and coating, it guarantees long-term operation even in difficult conditions.

Construction and application

The YKY 5x70 SM 1kV cable is characterized by a construction consisting of five copper cores with a cross-section of 70 mm². These cores are insulated with polyvinyl chloride (PVC), which provides them with resistance to mechanical damage and atmospheric factors. The whole is surrounded by an external PVC coating, which further protects the cable against moisture and UV radiation. This makes the cable perfect for installations:

• Underground: the cable is adapted for direct burial in the ground.
• Power: ideal for transmitting energy in residential, commercial and industrial buildings.
• Inside buildings: suitable for running in cable ducts, protective pipes and directly on plasters.
• Where high mechanical resistance is required: thanks to its solid construction, the cable is resistant to damage during installation and operation.

Key features and benefits

• Large core cross-section (70 mm²): allows for transmitting large currents without the risk of overheating, which is particularly important in installations with high energy demand.
• Copper cores: provide excellent electrical conductivity and minimize energy losses.
• PVC insulation and coating: guarantee high resistance to moisture, UV radiation and mechanical damage, which translates into a long cable life.
• UV resistance: allows the cable to be used outdoors without fear of material degradation under the influence of sunlight.
• Compliance with PN-93/E-90401 standard: confirms the high quality of the product and its compliance with applicable safety standards.
• Flexibility: the sector-shaped core design makes it easy to install and route the cable in tight spaces.
• Protective conductor: the presence of a protective conductor increases the safety of using the electrical installation.
• Flame retardancy (IEC 60332-1-2): The cable has a certificate confirming its fire resistance, which increases safety in the event of a fire.

Additional information: the cable has a reaction to fire class Eca according to EN 13501-6 and a minimum bending radius of 400.8 mm for fixed installations. Its approximate outer diameter is 33.4 mm and its weight is about 3699 kg/km. Remember that the permissible operating temperature of the core is a maximum of 70°C during normal operation and from -5 to +50°C during installation.
