NYFGY Cables

NYFGY cables are Medium Voltage rigid armoured cables with flat steel wires, manufactured in accordance with German standard DIN VDE 0271.

NYFGY Cable Specification

Insulated and sheathed in PVC, the NYFGY cable is less commonly used than the BS6622 or BS7835 British standard armoured cables, the NYFGY cable is nevertheless are still specified for a range of applications, often where the connected equipment is temperature limited. 

It has an operating temperature range of -5^oC to +70^oC owing to the PVC insulation layer. Cables such as the N2XSY MV range with XLPE insulation have a higher +90^oC operating temperature.

Armour is not commonly specified in European standard MV installations - unless specifically requested, direct burial cables do not have integral mechanical protection. As a result, the NYFGY cable is used where there is high risk of mechanical damage, such as power plants and heavy industrial settings where critical power must be maintained. 

NYFGY Cable Voltage

The NYFGY cable provided here has a voltage rating of 3.6/6kV. Our portfolio includes armoured cables to European and international standards across all voltages. Please speak to our MV specialists for support in specifying NYFGY cables or other appropriate cable. 

The NYFGY is commonly specified in 3 core configuration, and in core sizes from 35mm² to 240mm², but other sizes can be requested directly.
