Shortage of NA2XSF2Y? We have the three-core medium-voltage cable
The currently highly sought-after three-core version NA2XSF2Y 3x1x consists of three separately laid single cores – ideal for flexible routing and high-performance installations.
## Technical characteristics
The three-core version [NA2XS(F)2Y](/products/power-cables/medium-voltage-cables/na2xsf2y/) 3x1x300 RM/25 12/20kV meets all requirements for use in demanding environments:
- Rated voltage: 12/20 kV
- Conductor cross-section: 300 mm² aluminum
- Conductor screen: extruded conductive
- Longitudinal water tightness: via swellable tapes
- Installation method: suitable for direct burial

Typical applications for the NA2XSF2Y
Use in substations and transformer stations
Application in difficult soil conditions
This versatility makes the NA2XSF2Y 3x1x one of the most universal medium-voltage cables on the market. Especially for cable infrastructure in onshore wind farms, the [NA2XS(F)2Y](/products/power-cables/medium-voltage-cables/na2xsf2y/) is the first choice.
# Why the market is sold out
## Causes of the shortage
The current scarcity of the three-core NA2XSF2Y has several causes that reinforce each other:
- Strongly increased demand due to [accelerated grid expansion](https://www.nabu.de/umwelt-und-ressourcen/klima-und-luft/klimaschutz-deutschland-und-europa/28432.html) in Europe, especially in wind and solar parks
- Production bottlenecks for insulating materials such as XLPE and for aluminum
- Long delivery cycles due to limited manufacturing capacity at producers
- Logistics issues caused by overloaded transport routes and delays in supply chains

# FAQs about the NA2XSF2Y
## Is the NA2XSF2Y suitable for direct burial?
Yes, the [NA2XSF2Y](/products/power-cables/medium-voltage-cables/na2xsf2y/) is specifically designed for direct installation in the ground. Thanks to its longitudinal water tightness and robust outer sheath construction, it is ideal for underground routes – even in challenging soil conditions or varying moisture zones.
## Which CPR class does the cable meet?
The [CPR classification](https://www.serverschrank24.de/wissensdatenbank/klassifikation-von-verlegekabeln.html) (Construction Products Regulation) depends on the specific design and manufacturer. Common for the NA2XSF2Y 3x1x are classes such as Eca or better, depending on the sheath material used. If in doubt, we will provide the exact declaration for the desired product.
