The NKT CYKY installation cable is a robust power solution engineered for fixed electrical installations in both residential and commercial environments. With a configuration of five conductors, each featuring a 6 mm² cross-section, this cable is designed to handle demanding power distribution tasks reliably. The construction utilizes high-quality polyvinyl chloride (PVC) for both the insulation and the outer sheath, ensuring durability and protection against environmental factors. Rated for 750 V and meeting Eca fire safety standards, this cable provides a secure and efficient pathway for electrical current in various building infrastructures.
Advantages
This cable offers exceptional versatility due to its UV-resistant outer jacket, which allows for safe deployment in outdoor settings without the risk of degradation from sunlight exposure. The hose-shaped design facilitates easier handling and routing through conduits or wall structures. By adhering to Eca flammability standards, it contributes to the overall fire safety profile of the electrical installation. Its sturdy construction ensures long-term performance, minimizing the need for maintenance in fixed wiring applications.
Suitable for
- Fixed electrical installations in residential buildings
- Power distribution in commercial and industrial facilities
- Outdoor electrical connections
- Installation within walls, concrete, or underground conduits
When it may not be suitable
This cable is not intended for applications requiring high flexibility or frequent movement, as it is designed specifically for fixed installations. It should not be used in environments where it may be subjected to mechanical stresses or temperatures exceeding the rated limits of the PVC material.

How to use
The cable should be installed by a qualified professional in accordance with local electrical codes and regulations. When routing the cable, ensure that the minimum bending radius is respected to prevent damage to the internal conductors. For underground installations, it is recommended to use appropriate protective conduits to prevent physical damage from soil pressure or sharp objects. Connections at termination points must be secured properly to ensure optimal electrical contact and safety.
What to consider before purchase
- Verify the total length required for your specific project layout
- Ensure the 6 mm² cross-section is sufficient for the intended electrical load
- Confirm that the installation environment complies with Eca fire safety requirements
- Check if additional protective conduits are necessary for your specific routing path
Usage recommendations
Always inspect the cable for any physical damage before installation. Ensure that all connections are tightened to the manufacturer's torque specifications to prevent overheating. Avoid exposing the cable to chemicals or solvents that may degrade the PVC insulation.
