E-A2XHC2Y / E-A2XHCJ2Y / E-A2XHCJA2Y Cables

Manufactured in accordance with IEC 60502-2 and HD620 10A, we offer Medium Voltage cables referenced using Austrian designations. The E-A2XHC2Y cable has an Aluminium conductor and MDPE outer sheathing. Variants with additional waterblocking properties are also available. These cables are comparable to the NA2XS2Y, NA2XS(F)2Y, NA2XS(FL)2Y German reference cables, and the EAXCWB, EAXeCWB, EAXeCeWB Belgian reference cables.

E-A2XHC2Y / E-A2XHCJ2Y / E-A2XHCJA2Y voltage rating

The standard voltage rating and associated test voltages for these cables is as follows:
6/10 (12)kV – Test Voltage 21kV
8.7/15 (17.5)kV – Test Voltage 30.45kV
12/20 (24)kV – Test Voltage 42kV
18/30 (36)kV – Test Voltage 63kV

E-A2XHC2Y, E-A2XHCJ2Y, and E-A2XHCJA2Y Cable Specification

These Aluminium cables with single core Class 2 stranded conductors are designed for primary power distribution networks. Suitable for installation buried directly in the ground or in buried cable ducts, they have a robust MDPE outer sheath which provides protection against UV exposure, impact, abrasions and tears.

Where installed in waterlogged ground, or in cable ducts liable to flooding, the E-A2XHCJ2Y cable and E-A2XHCJA2Y cables respectively benefit from additional waterblocking measures - the former having swellable tape wrapped over and under the metallic screen, whilst the latter has both this swellable tape and a radial waterblocking layer of Aluminium Foil tape bonded tightly to the underside of the sheathing. This helps prevent water ingress should the sheath be compromised or pierced.
