# NYY

<section>
<h3 data-start="439" data-end="484">Solid solution for standard applications</h3>
<p data-start="486" data-end="868">The <strong data-start="490" data-end="497">NYY</strong> cable is a standardized <strong>low-voltage cable</strong> according to <strong data-start="558" data-end="574">VDE 0276-603</strong>. It is used in power plants, industrial facilities, switching stations, and local distribution networks. It is suitable for <strong data-start="687" data-end="773">fixed installation indoors, in cable ducts, outdoors, underground, and in water</strong> – always under the condition that no special mechanical stresses are present.</p>
<h3 data-start="870" data-end="907">Construction and material properties</h3>
<p data-start="909" data-end="1274">The conductor consists of <strong data-start="932" data-end="942">copper</strong> – available as solid round (RE), stranded round (RM), or sector-shaped stranded (SM). The cores are <strong data-start="1054" data-end="1070">PVC-insulated</strong>, stranded together, and surrounded by a common <strong data-start="1107" data-end="1129">EPDM core sheath</strong>. The outer sheath is made of <strong data-start="1167" data-end="1200">black, UV-resistant PVC</strong> and reliably protects the cable against environmental influences and moisture.</p>
<h3 data-start="1276" data-end="1296">Fields of application</h3>
<p data-start="1298" data-end="1642">The NYY cable is ideally suited for <strong data-start="1334" data-end="1372">conventional power distribution</strong>, where simple and durable technology is required. It is preferably used in places where installation is possible without increased mechanical demands – for example, inside buildings, in supply lines, or for underground installation in standard local networks.</p>
