Power cable YKY 0.6/1 kV – a reliable choice for electrical installations

The YKY 0.6/1 kV power cable is a universal solution for transmitting electrical energy in various applications. It will work well in industrial installations, power plants, and local power networks. Its solid construction and compliance with standards ensure safe and long-lasting operation.

This cable is designed for permanent installation indoors, outdoors, in cable ducts, and directly in the ground. This versatility will be appreciated by both installers and end-users.

Construction and design features

The key to the reliability of the YKY cable is its carefully designed construction. Stranded copper conductors (available in RE, RM and SM classes) guarantee good flexibility and easy installation. Insulation of conductors made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) provides effective protection against electrical damage. In YKYżo 0.6/1 kV cables, a green-yellow protective conductor additionally increases safety. Twisted insulated conductors provide stability and minimize the risk of mechanical damage. The whole is surrounded by a durable coating made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) in black color – the cable is also available in other colors.

It is worth mentioning the special versions of this cable:

• YKYżo-O 0.6/1 kV and YKY-O 0.6/1 kV – designed for operation in environments exposed to contact with petroleum-based materials (e.g. petrol stations).
• XnKXSżo 0.6/1 kV and XnKXS 0.6/1 kV – halogen-free cables increasing fire safety due to limited emission of smoke and corrosive gases during combustion.
• Armored cables are also available, providing additional mechanical protection in harsh operating conditions.

Application and technical parameters

This cable with a conductor cross-section of 16 mm² and four conductors is perfect for installations requiring a higher current load. This is especially important when powering devices with high power consumption or with longer cable runs. The rated voltage U0/U is 0.6/1 kV, which makes it suitable for a wide range of electrical applications. The permissible operating temperature of the cable is from -30°C to +70°C, which ensures its reliability even in difficult weather conditions.
