FAQ
What is an NA2XY cable?
It is a Aluminum conductor, XLPE insulated, PVC sheathed cable for indoor and outdoor use in power stations, industry, and urban supply networks. The cable has a rated voltage of 0.6/1 kV and can have up to two conductors with cross-sectional areas ranging from 1.5-300 mm2.
What does 0.6 1kV cable mean?
However, a key limitation of PVC cable properties is their thermal and chemical resistance. PVC cable temperature rating tyA 0.6/1kV cable is a low-voltage electrical power cable. The rating indicates that the cable is designed to safely handle up to 0.6 kV (600 volts) between the conductor and the earth/ground, and up to 1 kV (1000 volts) between two phase conductors.
What is the difference between XLPE and PVC insulated cable?
XLPE (Cross-Linked Polyethylene) and PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) are two of the most common cable insulation materials. XLPE is generally preferred for heavy-duty, high-voltage, and high-temperature industrial applications, while PVC is ideal for low-voltage, everyday residential and commercial uses.
PVC vs XLPE for insulating cable: What’s the difference?
However, if a higher conductor temperature is required, causing the cable to rise above 70°C, then the cable chosen for this application should be insulated with XLPE.
This is because PVC has a maximum working temperature of 70°C which is exactly what is needed for standing building cables, whilst XLPE has a maximum working temperature of 90°C. Cables that are insulated with XLPE can run a higher current in the conductors.
What are the disadvantages of XLPE cables?
XLPE (cross-linked polyethylene) cables offer excellent thermal and electrical performance, but their primary disadvantages include a higher initial cost (30%-50% more than PVC), increased rigidity that limits their bending radius, and high susceptibility to physical damage from impact or abrasion during routing.

How long does XLPE insulation last?
Usually, the lifetime for XLPE is expected to be between 40 and 60 years at 90 °C rated operating temperature [14]. In this study, the estimated cable lifetime is 7–30 years at a rated operating temperature of 95–105 °C. Table 6 summaries the findings of cable lifetime in years for XLPE materials A and B.
