Product Highlights

Fast Building Wiring

NYM combines several insulated copper conductors inside one PVC sheath for fixed 300/500 V building wiring. Instead of pulling individual wires through every route, installers can use one multicore cable for power, lighting and equipment circuits. This is particularly useful in walls, ducts, surface routes and other building installations where a compact sheathed cable reduces installation steps.

Walls, Ducts and Concrete

The NYM construction is intended for fixed domestic, commercial and industrial installation and can be laid in walls, ducting, cable trays and directly in concrete where local rules permit. This gives designers a broad indoor building-wiring option that can continue through several common construction methods without changing cable family.

J/O Circuit Options

NYM-J includes a green/yellow protective conductor; NYM-O does not. The choice lets the same 300/500 V cable family cover circuits with different earthing arrangements while keeping core count and terminal planning clear. Selecting the correct version at design stage avoids adding an extra protective conductor after the route has already been installed.

Application Areas

Designed for Indoor walls, Closed conduits, Distribution panels and Power and lighting circuits.

Can MMJ replace NYM, or vice versa?

Not automatically. MMJ is specified in the Finnish market under SFS 2091, while NYM belongs to a different product and standards environment. The project specification, core arrangement, installation method and fire requirement should be checked before either cable is proposed as a substitute.

Can you check an equivalent cable from another manufacturer?

Yes. Send the exact cable designation and, where possible, the existing datasheet or project specification. We compare conductor material, construction, voltage rating, standards and the requirements that affect the installation before confirming whether an equivalent can be offered.

What if the required size, core count or construction is not shown on the website?

Send the exact requirement. The website does not represent every possible production combination. We will check whether the construction can be supplied and whether the required standards or certification scope also cover that version before it is quoted.
