N2XH B2ca and Cca– halogen-free, low smoke, fire resistant power cables with Cu conductors
This Environmental Product Declaration covers N2XH low-voltage power cables manufactured by Electroplast SA Romania. These cables are designed for use in fixed electrical installations in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings — including fire-sensitive environments where low smoke emission and halogen-free properties are required for enhanced fire safety.
The representative product for the analysis is the N2XH 3 × 2.5 cable, which represents the largest share of sales volume. Impacts for other products in the same family are presented in Annex 1.

Construction and Materials
N2XH cables are manufactured in a controlled factory environment using:
- Copper conductors with high conductivity;
- Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation;
- Halogen-free flame-retardant (HFFR/LSZH) outer sheath.
Manufacturing steps include conductor stranding, insulation and sheath extrusion, cooling, printing, and final electrical and mechanical testing under strict quality control.
These cables provide:
- Enhanced fire safety through low smoke emission and halogen-free properties;
- Reliable electrical performance under rated and short-circuit conditions;
- Mechanical flexibility consistent with installation requirements.
Finished cables are delivered on wooden or recyclable drums, ready for on-site installation.
