NKT CYKY Installation Cable, 5 x 16 mm², 750 V, Eca

The NKT CYKY installation cable is a robust power cable engineered for reliable electrical distribution in both dry and damp environments. Featuring five conductors with a cross-section of 16 mm², this cable is designed for fixed installations where durability and consistent performance are required. The construction utilizes high-quality polyvinyl chloride for both insulation and the outer sheath, ensuring long-term protection against environmental factors. With a rated voltage of 750 V and compliance with Eca fire safety standards, it serves as a dependable component for professional electrical infrastructure.

Advantages

This cable offers exceptional versatility due to its UV-resistant outer sheath, which allows for safe application in areas exposed to sunlight. The hose-shaped design facilitates easier handling and installation in various conduits or cable trays. By providing a consistent 500-meter length, it minimizes the need for joints in large-scale projects, thereby increasing the overall integrity of the electrical system. The use of high-grade PVC materials ensures that the cable maintains its mechanical properties over time, providing a stable solution for demanding power supply requirements.

Suitable for

• Fixed electrical installations in residential and commercial buildings
• Power distribution in damp and dry indoor environments
• Outdoor installations where UV resistance is required
• Large-scale electrical infrastructure projects

This cable is not intended for applications requiring high flexibility or frequent movement, as it is specifically designed for fixed installation. It should not be used in environments where fire safety requirements exceed the Eca classification or in areas with extreme chemical exposure that could degrade the PVC insulation.

Key specifications

• Number of conductors: 5
• Conductor cross-section: 16 mm²
• Rated voltage: 750 V
• Insulation and sheath material: Polyvinyl chloride (PVC)
• Flammability class: Eca
• UV resistance: Yes
• Cable shape: Hose
• Total length: 500 m

To install the NKT CYKY cable, ensure that the electrical circuit is de-energized before beginning any work. The cable should be routed through appropriate conduits or secured using suitable cable clips, ensuring that the minimum bending radius is respected to prevent damage to the internal conductors. Connections should be made by qualified personnel using appropriate terminals to ensure a secure and low-resistance contact.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the 16 mm² cross-section is sufficient for the total load of your electrical circuit
• Ensure the Eca fire safety rating meets local building regulations for your specific installation site
• Confirm that the 500-meter length is appropriate for the scale of your project
• Check that the installation environment is compatible with PVC-insulated cables

For optimal performance and safety, always follow local electrical codes and standards during installation. Ensure that the cable is protected from mechanical stress and that all connections are properly insulated and housed in suitable junction boxes.
