Scope of Application / Usage Range

ZC-YJV 0.6/1 kV 2×10 mm² is for fixed installation in LV distribution up to 1.2 kV where flame-retardant Class C is required (plain YJV is not sufficient).

Typical use:

Single-phase AC circuits (L+N) or DC pairs (+,−) in buildings with fire-code requirement for ZC
Indoor distribution boards, residential/commercial final circuits, lighting & small equipment feeders
Cable trays, ducts, trenches, shafts in high-rise buildings, hotels, stations, metros, hospitals, data centres (where ZC or better is specified)
Industrial plants, warehouses, PV/battery/charger branch circuits (DC polarity check needed)
Direct buried in non-aggressive soil, low mechanical risk

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Flame-Retardant Class C · XLPE Insulated · PVC Sheathed · Copper Conductor · 0.6/1 kV

Product Basics

Q1. What does the model “ZC-YJV” mean?

“Z” stands for flame-retardant, “C” denotes Class C flame-retardant performance, “YJ” means XLPE (cross-linked polyethylene) insulation, and “V” means PVC sheath. ZC-YJV is a copper-core, Class C flame-retardant, XLPE-insulated, PVC-sheathed low-voltage power cable.

Q2. What does “2×10 mm²” indicate?

“2” means the cable has two cores (two insulated conductors within a common sheath). “10 mm²” is the nominal cross-sectional area of each copper conductor. A 2-core cable is typically used for single-phase AC power supply circuits, providing one phase and one neutral conductor.

Q3. What is the rated voltage?

The rated voltage U₀/U is 0.6/1 kV (0.6 kV phase-to-earth, 1 kV phase-to-phase), designed for low-voltage single-phase and three-phase power distribution systems.

Q4. What materials are used in construction?

Conductor: plain copper, Class 2 stranded. Insulation: cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) on each core. Filler: non-hygroscopic material to hold the two cores together. Outer sheath: flame-retardant PVC. Standard ZC-YJV is unarmored. For direct burial, armored variants (YJV22) are available.

Technical Specifications

Q5. What is the maximum operating temperature?

The maximum continuous conductor temperature is 90 °C. During short-circuit events, the conductor may reach up to 250 °C for no more than 5 seconds. XLPE insulation provides higher temperature resistance and greater ampacity compared with traditional PVC-insulated (VV) cables.

Q6. What is the typical current-carrying capacity?

For a 2×10 mm² copper XLPE cable, the ampacity is approximately 50–65 A when installed in free air at 30 °C ambient. Multi-core cables generally have slightly lower ampacity than single-core cables due to mutual heating between cores. Lower ratings apply when buried, installed in conduit, or at elevated ambient temperatures. Refer to GB/T 16895 / IEC 60364 and manufacturer tables for precise values.

Q7. What is the conductor DC resistance?

The maximum DC resistance of a 10 mm² Class 2 copper conductor at 20 °C is approximately 1.83 Φ/km (annealed copper), per GB/T 3956 / IEC 60228. Each core in the 2-core cable has the same resistance value. Confirm the exact value from the factory test report.

Installation & Applications

Q8. What is the minimum bending radius?

For multi-core unarmored cables, the minimum bending radius is 15 times the cable outer diameter (15D) during installation. Multi-core cables are generally more flexible than equivalent single-core cables of the same total copper area. D = actual outer diameter.

Q9. What are the typical applications?

Common uses include: single-phase lighting and power branch circuits in residential and commercial buildings; power supply to small appliances, water pumps, and auxiliary equipment; secondary distribution in industrial plants; and connection between distribution boards and end-use devices where Class C flame-retardant performance is required.

Q10. Which standards and certifications apply?

Manufactured in accordance with GB/T 12706 (equivalent to IEC 60502), with conductor compliance to GB/T 3956 / IEC 60228 and flame-retardant testing per GB/T 18380 / IEC 60332-3. Common certifications include CCC (China), CE (Europe), ISO 9001, RoHS, and VDE/TUV for specific international markets.
