NF C 33-226 Cable

NF C 33-226 Cable

NF C 33-226 is the French standard for medium-voltage (MV) power cables, typically used in public distribution networks at voltage levels such as 12/20(24) kV and 18/30(36) kV. These cables feature cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation, typically with aluminum conductors and a medium-density polyethylene (MDPE) outer sheath, suitable for both aerial and underground installation. They are available in single-core or three-core configurations and offer various performance enhancement options, such as reinforced electrical protection or improved burial resistance.

NF C 33-226 Cable Application

These power cables are typically used in public distribution networks. Additional applications include:

  • Underground distribution networks: Directly buried underground or installed in conduits.
  • Industrial sites: Power distribution within large factories, refineries, and data centers.
  • Infrastructure projects: Airports, railways, tunnels, and hospitals.
  • Renewable energy: Connecting wind turbines and solar power plants to the grid.
  • Interconnection between substations.
