The NKT VDYP PLUS installation cable is a reliable solution for fixed electrical wiring in both residential and commercial environments. Designed with three 1.5 mm² conductors, this cable is engineered for power distribution in lighting and socket circuits, operating effectively within a 300/500V range. Its flat tape construction and durable PVC insulation and sheathing make it a practical choice for professional electrical installations.
Advantages
This cable offers excellent flexibility and ease of handling during installation, thanks to its flat design which allows for efficient routing in walls and conduits. The high-quality PVC material provides robust protection against environmental factors, ensuring long-term performance in both dry and damp indoor conditions. With a 100-meter length, it is well-suited for large-scale projects, reducing the need for frequent joints and ensuring a continuous power supply.
Suitable for
- Fixed electrical wiring in residential buildings
- Power distribution for lighting circuits
- Installation of electrical socket circuits
- Indoor wiring in dry or damp environments
When it may not be suitable
This cable is not intended for outdoor use where it would be exposed to direct sunlight or extreme weather conditions, as it lacks UV protection. It is also not suitable for applications requiring shielded cables or for installations where high mechanical stress or direct burial in the ground is expected.
Key specifications

How to use
The cable should be installed by a qualified professional in accordance with local electrical regulations. It is designed for fixed installation, meaning it should be secured within walls, conduits, or cable trays. Ensure that the bending radius is respected during installation to prevent damage to the internal conductors and the PVC insulation. When stripping the outer sheath, use appropriate tools to avoid nicking the individual conductor insulation.
What to consider before purchase
- Verify that the 1.5 mm² cross-section is sufficient for the intended electrical load and circuit breaker rating.
- Ensure the installation environment meets the indoor requirements for this cable type.
- Check local building codes regarding the use of Eca flammability class cables in your specific structure.
Usage recommendations
Always ensure that the electrical circuit is completely de-energized before beginning any installation or maintenance work. Regularly inspect the cable runs for any signs of physical damage or degradation if accessible.
