(N)HXH-J / (N)HXH-O FE180/E90
(N)HXH FE180/E90 is a halogen-free, fire-resistant power cable rated 0.6/1 kV, designed for fixed electrical installations in buildings with elevated fire safety requirements.
The cable provides FE180 fire resistance and E90 circuit integrity in appropriately tested installation systems. Its flame-retardant, low-smoke and halogen-free construction helps reduce smoke and corrosive gas emissions during a fire.
Available as (N)HXH-J with a protective conductor and (N)HXH-O without a protective conductor.
Construction
Copper Conductor
Bare copper conductor, Class 1 solid (RE); from 25 mm², Class 2 stranded (RM).
Core Insulation
Fire-resistant, halogen-free FRNC insulation compound, type HI1.
Core Identification
Core colours according to HD 308 / VDE 0293. The J version includes a green-yellow protective conductor; the O version has no protective conductor.
Outer Sheath
Flame-retardant, halogen-free FRNC compound, type HM1, with orange outer sheath.
