Helukabel NYY-J PVC 0.6/1 kV Power Cable
Description
The Helukabel NYY-J is the standard PVC-insulated, PVC-sheathed 0.6/1 kV power and control cable for fixed installation. Copper conductors, PVC core insulation (DIV4) and a black PVC outer sheath (DMV5) make it a general-purpose feeder cable for plant, distribution boards and building services. NYY-J carries a green-yellow protective conductor from three cores up; NYY-O has none. Part numbers are listed separately for the J and O versions.

Application and limits
Helukabel states that power cables of this type can be installed in open air, underground, in water, in concrete, indoors and in cable ducts, in power stations, industry and distribution boards and in subscriber networks, where mechanical damage is not to be expected. The sheath is unarmoured, so where there is a risk of mechanical damage, routes should use trays with covers, conduit, or an armoured cable type. The cable is cadmium-free and silicone-free.
NYY is flame-retardant but not halogen-free. In enclosed public areas where low smoke is specified, the N2XH halogen-free type is the usual alternative, and for circuit integrity in a fire a FE 180 type is required. Check the cable gland range: for unarmoured cable, a gland such as the CMP A2F for unarmoured cable matches this construction.

About brand
HELUKABEL is the German manufacturer and supplier of cables, wires and cable accessories, with a range that covers control, power, data, fire-resistant and drag-chain cables. Helmut Luksch and his wife founded the company in 1978 in Hemmingen, near Stuttgart. The name combines the first letters of his first and last name (HElmut LUksch) with the word for cable (Kabel). It has made its own cables since 1988.
Seven Star LLC is an independent supplier in Muscat. We list HELUKABEL control, power, VFD, data and fire-resistant cables and supply them to contractors, panel builders and plants in Oman and the GCC by type, cross-section and length.

The code on a European cable describes its build. In NYY-J, N means a standard type, Y a PVC insulation and sheath, and J a green-yellow earth core. In N2XH, 2X is XLPE insulation and H a halogen-free sheath. A C or CY in the name marks a copper braid screen. FE 180 and E 90 are the fire tests: insulation integrity for 180 minutes and circuit function for 90 minutes as an installed system.
Where HELUKABEL cables are used
In Oman and the GCC, HELUKABEL cables are used in oil and gas and process plants, motor control centres and VFD installations, building fire alarm and life safety systems, machinery and cranes, and water and power infrastructure.
Ordering HELUKABEL cables: what we need
Send the cable type, the number of cores and cross-section (for example 4G2.5 or 3x150+70), the length, and whether you need a specific standard or certificate. For fire-resistant cables, add the required test (FE 180, E 30 or E 90).
