Application Overview
The EAYY cable is a low voltage 0.6/1kV aluminium conductor cable designed for fixed installations in energy distribution networks, especially in industrial facilities, renewable energy plants, and chemical or petrochemical environments.
This cable is particularly suitable for indoor or outdoor use where mechanical stress is low and chemical exposure is a concern. Its PVC insulation and outer sheath offer reliable protection against moisture, UV radiation, and a wide range of chemicals, making it a practical and cost-effective alternative to copper-based cables.
It is functionally equivalent to E-AY2Y cable, with aluminum conductors offering a lighter weight and more economical solution.
