N2XBY/NA2XBY

Q: Q: N2XBY vs. NA2XBY: What’s the real difference?

A: Just the conductor metal. N2XBY is Copper. NA2XBY (with the 'A') is Aluminum. Structurally? Identical. Aluminum is just cheaper and lighter.

Q: Q: Voltage rating?

A: Standard Low Voltage: 0.6/1kV .

Q: Q: What kind of armor is it?

A: Double Steel Tape (DSTA). We wrap two layers of galvanized steel tape around it. Unlike wire armor, this is specifically designed to stop the cable from getting crushed by rocks or heavy soil pressure.

Q: Q: Insulation material?

A: XLPE. It runs at 90°C , so you get better ampacity than old-school PVC cables.

Q: Q: Can I get a sample first?

A: Yep. We can ship a short cut so you can inspect the layers and quality yourself before committing to a full drum.

Q: Q: Can I bury this underground?

A: Definitely. That’s exactly what the tape armor is for. It makes the cable tough enough for direct burial in trenches.

Q: Q: Can you customize the specs?

A: Sure. Need a specific jacket color or a non-standard length? Just tell us what you need. We’ll build it.

Product Description

N2XBY/NA2XBY : Product Description and Specifications

The N2XBY (Copper) and NA2XBY (Aluminum) series are heavy-duty 0.6/1kV cables built for one main purpose: crush resistance. Instead of armor wires, we wrap these with Double Steel Tape Armor (DSTA). This makes the cable rock-hard against lateral pressure—perfect for direct burial in rocky soil where standard cables would get crushed. We pair this with XLPE insulation (rated for 90°C) so you can push higher loads than standard PVC cables without overheating.

Advantages

N2XBY/NA2XBY: Benefits and Features

0.6/1kV Rating: Standard Low Voltage spec.
Copper or Aluminum: Your choice. Go Copper for conductivity or Aluminum to save the budget.
Why XLPE? It handles 90°C. Beats standard PVC (which quits at 70°C) hands down for thermal stability.
Double Steel Tape Armor (DSTA): Two layers of galvanized steel. Unlike wire armor, this is built specifically for crush resistance in rocky soil.
Tough PVC Sheath: Type ST2 jacket. Formulated to take a beating and resist abrasion in the trench.

Production Processes Of Power cable

To ensure superior quality, JOCA operates fully digitalized and automated production lines for power cables. Specifically, this comprehensive workflow covers conductor stranding, insulation extrusion, metallic screening, and final sheathing. Moreover, intelligent systems actively monitor each stage to ensure stable performance and consistent product quality. In addition, the factory utilizes advanced testing facilities, such as partial discharge testing, tensile testing, and spark testing. Consequently, these rigorous measures guarantee that every delivered cable strictly meets international standards.

Packing For Shipment

To meet various transportation needs, there are many methods of packaging that can be used.

Q: N2XBY vs. NA2XBY: What’s the real difference?

A: Just the conductor metal. N2XBY is Copper. NA2XBY (with the ‘A’) is Aluminum. Structurally? Identical. Aluminum is just cheaper and lighter.

Q: Voltage rating?

A: Standard Low Voltage: 0.6/1kV.

Q: What kind of armor is it?

A: Double Steel Tape (DSTA). We wrap two layers of galvanized steel tape around it. Unlike wire armor, this is specifically designed to stop the cable from getting crushed by rocks or heavy soil pressure.

Q: Insulation material?

A: XLPE. It runs at 90°C, so you get better ampacity than old-school PVC cables.

Q: Can I get a sample first?

A: Yep. We can ship a short cut so you can inspect the layers and quality yourself before committing to a full drum.

Q: Can I bury this underground?

A: Definitely. That’s exactly what the tape armor is for. It makes the cable tough enough for direct burial in trenches.

Q: Can you customize the specs?

A: Sure. Need a specific jacket color or a non-standard length? Just tell us what you need. We’ll build it.
