| Four-core layered construction description, from conductor to outer sheath · per GB/T 12706.1 & IEC 60502-1 · CU / XLPE / PVC · 0.6/1 kV | |||
| 1. General Description | |||
| ZR-YJV 4×35 is a 0.6/1 kV AC flame-retarded four-core cable built on the classic copper / XLPE / PVC platform and manufactured to GB/T 12706.1 / IEC 60502-1, with stranding per GB/T 3956 / IEC 60228 and fire classification per GB/T 19666 (ZC default). Approx. outside diameter 27.1 mm and weight 1626 kg/km make it a typical rising-main and feeder cable at this section; it is delivered on 100 m coils or drums. | |||
| All four cores share the same 35 mm² section, so the neutral conductor can carry full phase current when required — a practical advantage for lighting and unbalanced single-phase loads. | |||
| 2. Conductor System | |||
| Each core strands seven 2.52 mm annealed copper wires (7/2.52, Class 2) into a round conductor of ≈ 7.56 mm with a maximum DC resistance of 0.524 Ω/km at 20 °C. The stranded cross-section reduces skin-effect loss and keeps the cable flexible enough for switchgear cubicles and riser trunking. | |||
| 3. Insulation System | |||
| XLPE insulation is applied at the 0.9 mm wall maintained through the 25–35 mm² band, bringing each core to ≈ 9.36 mm over insulation. Dielectric properties support a 3.5 kV AC five-minute routine test, continuous operation at 90 °C, and short-circuit peaks of 250 °C for up to five seconds, with volume resistivity ≥ 1×10¹² Ω·cm. | |||
| 4. Sheath & Fire Performance | |||
| The four insulated cores are assembled around a dry central filler into a round bundle of about 22.6 mm and bound with tape, then jacketed with 1.8 mm of flame-retarded ST2 PVC to close at ≈ 27.1 mm. The ZC rating is proven through GB/T 18380.12 single and GB/T 18380.35 class-C bunched burning; because PVC carries halogen, projects demanding smoke/zero-halogen should move to WDZ-YJY. | |||
| 5. Service Guidance | |||
| • Keep installation bends at or above 15 × OD. • Prove the circuit with the DC 4U0 = 2.4 kV / 15 min test before energising. • Ambient −20 to +45 °C in service; warm reels for pulls below 0 °C. • Apply grouping, ambient and burial derating to the quoted ampacity. • Terminate with lugs and glands sized for the ≈ 7.56 mm core. |
8. Verification Plan. Routine: resistance, 3.5 kV/5 min, construction (ins. ≥ 0.9 mm, sheath ≥ 1.8 mm). Sample: XLPE hot-set (200 ± 3 °C / 15 min / 0.2 MPa). Type: flame + bending. Site: DC 4U0 = 2.4 kV / 15 min (Q/GDW 13244.1-2018).

| 1. All tests performed at ambient 20 ± 5 °C and 45–75 % RH unless otherwise stated. 2. Routine tests: withstand (3.5 kV / 5 min), conductor resistance, dimensional check. Type tests: 4.0 kV, partial discharge, hot-set, aging, mechanical (per IEC 60502-1). 3. Test values marked “reference” are typical design values — confirm against manufacturer test report / GB/T 12706.1-2020. 4. Insulation thickness for 35 mm² class = 0.9 mm nominal (GB/T 12706.1-2020, Table 3); minimum = 0.9 − 0.19 = 0.71 mm. 5. For low-smoke halogen-free → use WDZ-YJY 4×35; for fire-survival → NH-ZR-YJV 4×35; for armoured → ZR-YJV22 4×35. |

9. Usage Cautions. Bend ≥ 15 × OD; pull by stocking, never by the conductor; avoid tight saddles; protect from sun/impact; run the DC site test before energising; derate for ambient/grouping/burial; size lugs for the ≈ 7.56 mm core.
10. Application Range. Three-phase + neutral mains, sub-distribution, switchgear and motor feeders at 0.6/1 kV — building risers, plant rooms, pump/HVAC circuits — in conduit, tray, trench, duct, trunking; indoor or sheltered outdoor.
11. Ordering. ZR-YJV 0.6/1 kV 4×35 + length/drum type + marking. Standard 100 m; confirm against the factory test certificate.
