NA2XS(F)2a kabel

NA2XS(F)2Y cable is a single-core medium-voltage power cable with a stranded aluminium conductor, screened XLPE insulation, copper wire screen and black PE outer sheath. The (F) construction includes longitudinal water-blocking components in the screen area.

Fixed distribution feeders, substations and industrial power routes use this cable type where the installation design calls for an aluminium conductor and a water-blocked screened core. Conductor size, oblast obrazovky, voltage and route conditions define the final configuration.

Single-core aluminium/XLPE/copper-wire-screen/PE, 12/20(24) kV. In 1×240/25, 240 mm² identifies the phase conductor and 25 mm² the metallic screen.

Reference ampacity: one circuit, touching trefoil; air 30°C; ground 20°C, tepelný odpor 1.0 K·m/W and burial depth 0.7 m. Reference maximum conductor temperature: 90°C. Potrubí, grouped circuits and bonding require a project calculation.

Longitudinal water blocking and three single-core circuits

Swellable components in the screen region restrict water travel along the cable after moisture enters. A radial barrier or water-blocked conductor can be specified separately; sheath damage requires repair.

The notation 3×1×240 identifies three separate single-core cables, each with a 240 mm² conductor. Each cable has its own sheath, cable entry and screen connection.

Applications and Installation Conditions

Typical applications include utility feeders, transformer-substation connections and industrial distribution. The route design covers mechanical protection, tepelné podmínky, end sealing and aluminium-compatible connections. Indoor fire requirements determine the appropriate sheath and tests.

The test schedule covers conductor resistance, izolace, částečný výboj, sheath integrity and the specified longitudinal water-blocking performance. The official IEC scope describes the fixed-distribution cable framework.

NA2XS(F)2Y and Related Constructions

ModelMain difference
NA2XSY cableAluminium conductor and PVC outer sheath instead of PE; longitudinal water blocking is not specified by the NA2XSY designation.
N2XS2Y cableCopper conductor instead of aluminium, with XLPE insulation and a PE sheath; longitudinal water blocking is not specified by the N2XS2Y designation.
NA2XS(FL)2YAdds a laminated metallic moisture barrier beneath the PE sheath, providing radial moisture protection in addition to longitudinal water blocking.

NA2XS(F)2Y Cable FAQs

What does (F) mean in NA2XS(F)2Y?

The (F) designation identifies longitudinal water blocking in the specified cable region. A radial barrier and conductor water blocking are additional construction features.

Does an aluminium conductor mean an aluminium screen?

The reference construction uses an aluminium phase conductor and a separate copper wire screen. Screen area follows earth-fault duty and bonding requirements.

Is 3×1×240 the same as a three-core cable?

3×1×240 means three separate single-core cables. A three-core design places three phase cores inside one common outer sheath.
