sku: N2XY-low-voltage-cables
description: >
  The N2XY cable is an unarmoured low-voltage cable for power and control
  applications up to 0.6/1 kV. It is suitable for fixed installation in
  buildings, outdoors, in humid environments, and for direct burial – wherever
  no special mechanical stresses occur.

application: >
  The N2XY is used in low-voltage systems for power distribution – for example in cable
  trays, conduits, on walls, or directly underground. It can be installed both indoors
  and outdoors and is also suitable for humid environments. Thanks to various core
  configurations (single-core to four-core) and cross-sections up to 630 mm², the cable
  can be flexibly adapted to the respective application.

<h3 data-start="514" data-end="565">For fixed installation in standard applications</h3>
<p data-start="567" data-end="995">The <strong data-start="571" data-end="579">N2XY</strong> is used in low-voltage systems for power distribution – for example in cable trays, conduits, on walls, or directly underground. It can be installed both indoors and outdoors and is also suitable for humid environments. Thanks to various core configurations (single-core to four-core) and cross-sections up to 630 mm², the cable can be flexibly adapted to the respective application.</p>
<h3 data-start="997" data-end="1020">Technical construction</h3>
<p data-start="1022" data-end="1346">The conductor consists of solid or stranded <strong data-start="1067" data-end="1077">copper</strong> (RE or RM), with the cores insulated with <strong data-start="1111" data-end="1144">XLPE (cross-linked polyethylene)</strong>. The cable is embedded in a <strong data-start="1189" data-end="1206">PVC filler compound</strong> and surrounded by a <strong data-start="1226" data-end="1245">PVC outer sheath</strong>, which protects it against environmental influences and normal mechanical stress.</p>
<h3 data-start="1348" data-end="1387">Variants and applications</h3>
<p data-start="1389" data-end="1779">N2XY is available as <strong data-start="1409" data-end="1419">N2XY-J</strong> (with protective conductor) and <strong data-start="1452" data-end="1462">N2XY-O</strong> (without protective conductor). It offers a <strong data-start="1509" data-end="1594">space-saving, economical solution for low-voltage distribution</strong> without compromising on safety or quality. Typical applications include commercial and residential buildings, system installations, as well as connections between switchgear and distribution boards.</p>
