Power cable YKY 0.6/1 kV 3x2.5 RE black 0359 002 05

Power Cable YKYżo – Reliability and Safety in Your Installation

The power cable YKYżo 0.6/1 kV is a proven choice for transmitting electrical energy in a wide range of applications. It performs excellently in industrial plants, power stations, and local distribution networks. Its versatility allows installation indoors, outdoors, in cable ducts, and directly in the ground. The construction using flexible copper strands ensures flexibility and ease of installation, while the robust PVC insulation guarantees safe and long-term operation.

Construction and Key Features

The reliability of YKYżo cables stems from their carefully designed construction. Conductors are made of flexible copper strands—available in several classes (RE, RM, SM)—enhancing cable flexibility and simplifying installation. The insulation of each conductor is made of insulating PVC, providing effective protection against mechanical damage and environmental conditions. The green-yellow protective conductor in YKYżo cables enhances user safety. The insulated cores are twisted into a central core, ensuring stability and minimizing interference. The entire cable is protected by a durable outer sheath of PVC, standardly available in black.

Applications and Benefits

This cable is not only a standard solution for power transmission. The availability of specialized versions expands its application range:

• YKYżo-O: Oil-resistant cables, ideal for environments exposed to mineral oil and other petroleum-based substances—e.g., fuel stations or storage facilities.
• XnKXSżo: Halogen-free cables that, in case of fire, limit the emission of toxic gases and do not propagate flame—significantly increasing safety for people and property.
• Armored cables: Provide additional protection against mechanical damage, especially important when installing cables in areas exposed to external loads.

With a cross-section of 2.5 mm², this cable is ideal for installations requiring medium current loads. The three-core design enables connection of phase, neutral, and protective earth conductors—ensuring complete protection of the electrical installation.
