With a rated voltage of 0.6/1kV, this cable is specifically engineered for use in control circuits, monitoring systems, and protection circuits, ensuring reliable signal transmission and power delivery where electromagnetic interference (EMI) is a concern.
The designation KVVP2 indicates:
- K – Control cable
- VV – PVC insulation and PVC sheath
- P2 – Copper tape shielding (as opposed to braided shielding)
This cable is manufactured in compliance with IEC 60502-1 and IEC 60228, ensuring international acceptance and bankable quality standards
Key Applications
-
Industrial automation and machinery control panels
-
Power plant and substation monitoring circuits
-
Building management systems (BMS)
-
Railway and transportation control systems
-
Petrochemical and refinery control installations
Construction Details
The NYSY – KVVP2 cable features a robust construction designed for durability, signal integrity, and long service life in fixed installations:
1. Conductor – Plain annealed copper, available as Class 1 (solid) or Class 2 (stranded round). Meets IEC 60228 requirements for conductivity and mechanical performance.
2. Insulation – PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) insulation provides excellent electrical insulation properties, abrasion resistance, and protection against moisture and chemicals. Color-coded for easy core identification.
3. Filler & Binder – Non-hygroscopic fillers and binders maintain the circular shape of the cable and provide structural integrity.
4. Copper Tape Shield (P2) – A helically applied copper tape provides effective screening against electromagnetic interference (EMI). This is the defining feature of the KVVP2 type, offering superior shielding compared to braided shields in certain frequency ranges.
5. Outer Sheath – PVC outer sheath offers mechanical protection, resistance to abrasion, moisture, and sunlight, with adequate resistance to oil

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What is the difference between KVVP and KVVP2?
A: KVVP uses a copper wire braided shield, while KVVP2 uses a copper tape shield. Tape shielding provides 100% coverage and is generally more effective against low-frequency interference, while braided shielding offers better flexibility and is more durable against physical abrasion.
Q: Can this cable be used outdoors?
A: Yes, the PVC outer sheath provides adequate resistance to sunlight and moisture for outdoor fixed installations. However, for direct burial or extreme UV exposure, additional protection (conduit or armoured version) is recommended.
Q: Is this cable flame retardant?
A: The standard PVC construction meets basic flame retardancy requirements (IEC 60332-1-2). For applications requiring enhanced flame retardancy (e.g., bunched cables in vertical trays), please specify when ordering.
Q: Can you provide the cable in LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen)?
A: Yes. Upon request, we can supply a variant with LSZH sheath material for applications requiring low smoke and zero halogen emissions in fire conditions.
