The NKT CYKY installation cable is a reliable power cable engineered for fixed electrical installations in both dry and damp environments. With a 3 x 2.5 mm² cross-section and a 750 V voltage rating, this cable is designed to provide consistent performance in residential and commercial electrical systems. The cable features a durable PVC insulation and outer sheath, ensuring long-term protection for the internal conductors. Its robust construction and UV resistance make it a versatile choice for various infrastructure projects where quality and safety are paramount.
Advantages
This installation cable offers excellent durability due to its high-quality polyvinyl chloride construction, which provides effective protection against environmental factors. The inclusion of UV resistance allows for greater flexibility in installation locations, including areas exposed to sunlight. With a standardized 3-core configuration and a 2.5 mm² cross-section, it is perfectly suited for standard power distribution tasks. The Eca fire safety rating ensures that the cable meets essential safety requirements for building installations, providing peace of mind for both installers and property owners.
Suitable for
- Fixed electrical installations in residential buildings
- Wiring in commercial and office spaces
- Installations in dry and damp indoor environments
- Outdoor applications requiring UV-resistant cabling
When it may not be suitable
This cable is not intended for applications requiring high mechanical stress or direct burial in the ground without additional protective conduit. It is also not suitable for use in environments where fire safety regulations demand higher classifications than Eca.

How to use
The NKT CYKY cable should be installed by a qualified professional in accordance with local electrical codes and regulations. It is designed for fixed installation, meaning it should be secured within walls, conduits, or cable trays. When stripping the outer sheath, ensure that the internal insulation of the individual conductors remains undamaged to maintain electrical integrity. Always verify that the circuit load does not exceed the capacity of the 2.5 mm² conductors before finalizing the connection.
What to consider before purchase
- Verify the required conductor cross-section for your specific electrical load
- Ensure the 750 V rating is sufficient for your application
- Check local building regulations regarding the Eca fire safety classification
- Confirm the total length of 100 meters is adequate for your project requirements
Usage recommendations
Always ensure that the cable is not bent beyond its minimum permissible radius during installation to prevent damage to the internal structure. Keep the cable away from sharp edges and heat sources that could compromise the PVC sheath.
