FAQ

Questions engineers ask first

Not covered here? Send your drawing — an engineer replies within 2 business hours.

What is the role of the integrated suspension element in KYFLTFCY?
Standard flat PVC cables (KYFLY / KYFLCY) rely on the copper conductors to support the cable's own hanging weight, limiting free drop height to 35 m. KYFLTFCY embeds lateral steel wire ropes or high-tenacity aramid/textile support cords into the flat profile to carry vertical drops up to 50–80 m without stretching the electrical cores.
How must KYFLTFCY be anchored at the top and bottom of a vertical hoist drop?
Clamp the flat body and its integrated lateral support elements in a dedicated wedge or saddle suspension clamp so tensile load transfers directly into the support members before the electrical cores enter the terminal enclosure.
What is the difference between KYFLTFCY, KYFLTCY and KYFLTFY?
All three are cold-flexible self-supporting flat PVC cables: KYFLTFCY and KYFLTCY have overall/bundle copper braid EMC screening across the control cores, while KYFLTFY (such as 28G1 + 2×(0.5)C) combines unscreened 1.0 mm² control cores with individually screened 0.5 mm² signal cores.
Can the support elements be used as a protective earth (PE) conductor?
No. Even when metallic steel support ropes are used, they are strictly mechanical strain-relief members and must never be used as a current-carrying or protective-earth conductor; always use the dedicated green-yellow (G) copper core for earthing.
