Cables GuidesPage 4: 85 technical guides for choosing Cables products: selection criteria, standards, common mistakes and frequently asked questions.CablesAutomation and ControlSwitching and Protection ProductsPower Factor CorrectionLightingElectrical and InstallationHardware and ConstructionPower and Energy SystemsTTR Cables Selection Guide — TTR cables (H05VV-F, 300/500 V) are flexible multi-core copper cables with PVC insulation and sheath used for portable appliances, extension cords and indoor wiring.NYA Cables Selection Guide — NYA is an unsheathed cable and covers H05V-U, H07V-U or H07V-R depending on cross-section; cross-section, color and place of use decide the selection.NYY Cables Selection Guide — NYY cable is a 0.6/1 kV power cable with copper conductors, PVC insulation and a PVC sheath (TSE designation YVV). Type code, core and cross-section reading, selection steps.Telephone Cables Selection Guide — Telephone cable types PDV, PDH, HBH and PD-PAP differ by insulation and sheath material, which determines where the cable can be installed; conductor diameter also matters.NYAF Cables Selection Guide — NYAF covers the H05V-K and H07V-K types, with rated voltage changing at small cross-sections; panel wiring picks cross-section and color by circuit current.Coaxial Cables Selection Guide — Coaxial cables split by impedance into 75 ohm and 50 ohm; cable, connector and device impedance must match, and RG6, RG11, RG59 are chosen by job type.Fire Cables Selection Guide — Fire alarm cables and fire-resistant cables are used in the same system but behave differently in a fire; the FE180 and PH120 classes are what matter.What Is NYM Antigron Cable? Core Colors and Selection — NYM (antigron) cable is a 300/500 V installation cable with copper conductors, PVC insulation and PVC sheath (TSE designation NVV). Core colors, cross-section and selection.NAYY Aluminum Cables Selection Guide — NAYY is an underground cable with an aluminum conductor, PVC insulation and PVC sheath (Turkish code YAVV); the choice comes down to single-core versus multicore construction.How to choose a cable? — When choosing a cable, evaluate the intended use, cross-section, voltage drop and installation conditions together. Short answers to selection questions.What is the difference between NYY and N2XH cables? — Learn the differences in insulation, outer sheath and fire behavior between NYY and N2XH cables; compare the information to check when selecting.What is the difference between LIYY and LIYCY cables? — Learn the shielding difference between LIYY and LIYCY signal cables. A short selection guide for interference, operating environment and technical compatibility.Is halogen-free cable fire-resistant? — Halogen-free, flame-retardant and fire-resistant cables are not the same thing. What should you look for in the datasheet for operation under fire?1 2 3 4
