Description

N2XH Copper Conductor XLPE/LSZH Insulation LSZH Inner Sheath Power Cable

Product Overview

The N2XH is a low voltage power and control cable designed for fixed applications where mechanical protection is not required. It is suitable for indoor and outdoor installation, as well as for laying in concrete, but it is not intended for direct burial or immersion in water.

The cable uses XLPE insulation and LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) materials to ensure increased safety in the event of fire by virtually eliminating toxic fumes when burnt. Compared with PVC cabling, N2XH offers pronounced advantages including low fire load, low smoke emission, and reduced fire propagation.

Applications

These power cables are used for electricity supply in low voltage installation systems. They are well adapted to underground use in industrial applications with additional mechanical protection. The cables can be fixed on cable trays, within conduits, or fixed to walls.

Typical applications include:

  • Energy networks

  • Refineries

  • Mines

  • Hotels

  • Schools

  • Tunnels

  • High constructions

  • Hospitals

  • Power plants

  • Data processing centers

  • Business centers

They are particularly suitable for environments where there is a risk of fire.

Important limitation: Not suitable for direct burial or immersion in water without additional protection.

Features & Benefits

  • Low Smoke Zero Halogen: LSZH construction reduces toxic fumes and smoke emission in fire conditions.

  • Reduced Fire Propagation: Low fire load and reduced flame spread compared with PVC cables.

  • Increased Fire Safety: Suitable for buildings and installations where fire risk must be minimised.

  • Fixed Installation: Designed for fixed power and control applications where mechanical protection is not required.
