The rubber single-core cable NSGAFOU is a real multi-tasker: Apart from its standards-compliant use as a machine control cable in buses and rail vehicles, it is often used in switchgear as a connecting cable. This special rubber single-core cable is, however, also utilised in other dry rooms.

NSGAFOU meaning
When choosing the cable best suited to your needs, there is a range of designations telling you about the cables’ and lines’ essential characteristics and structure. This is also the case for the rubber single-core cable NSGAFOU. Below you will find the meaning for the NSGAFOU codes:
One of the main distinctive features is the first letter, “N”, specifying that the NSGAFOU cable is a standardised line. “SG” means special rubber single-core cable. “A” indicates “wire” and the additions of “O” and “U” represent the properties “oil-resistant” and “flame-retardant”. “U” used to abbreviate the word “inflammable”.
Examples of the type code NSGAFOU: NSGAFOU 1x240 – NSGAFOU 1 x 2.5 – NSGAFOU 3.6/6kV
Apart from the already mentioned NSGAFOU meaning, the codes with information about strand count, conductor cross-section and nominal voltage are added. They are provided as numbers, as you can see in the rubber single-core cable NSGAFOU 1x240 1.8/3.6kV:
N: standard line according to VDE 0250 T. 602
SG: special rubber single-core cable
A: core / wire
F: fine-stranded
O: oil-resistant
U: flame-retardant according to VDE 0482-332-1-2/IEC 60332-1-2
1: strand count
X: times
240: nominal conductor cross-section of 240mm2
1.8/3.6kV: nominal voltage conductor-earth = 1.8kV, conductor-conductor = 3.6kV
So the wire NSGAFOU 1x2.5 3.6/6kV has a conductor cross-section of 2.5mm2 and a nominal voltage between conductor and earth of 3.6kV and a nominal voltage between conductor and conductor of 3.6kV.
Characteristics of the rubber single-core cable NSGAFOU: Current carrying capacity and short-circuit resistance
The type code already contains a lot of relevant information about the NSGAFOU structure. The conductor temperature of 90°C ensures a high level of current carrying capacity and even guarantees short-circuit resistance for theNSGAFOU line because of its insulation thickness. When used in switchgear and distributors up to 1kV, it is considered short-circuit resistant and earth-leakage proof.
For more information about the characteristics of NSGAFOU, please see our data sheet.
NSGAFOU in buses and rail vehicles
The NSGAFOU line is ideal for use indoors or in vehicle constructions such as buses or railway carriages. As a connecting cable, NSGAFOU can be applied in a wide array of temperature ranges. If you are looking for a suitable short circuit-resistant or earth-leakage proof line for the use in buses or rail vehicles, Faber will offer you a great selection of conductor cross-sections sold by the metre.
Using NSGAFOU cables
Thanks to its excellent characteristics, the rubber single-core cable NSGAFOU can be used in many demanding areas. While it is suitable for use only in dry rooms, its current carrying capacity qualifies it as a connecting cable in buses and rail vehicles. In addition, it is also used in switchgear.

If you are looking for a suitable short circuit-resistant or earth-leakage proof line for the use in buses or rail vehicles, Faber will offer you a great selection of conductor cross-sections sold by the metre.
NSGAFOU’s strengths become apparent not only in public transport. The rubber single-core cable is also used inswitchgear and control cabinets. Here, it is applied as a connecting cable and classified as short circuit-resistant at a nominal voltage of up to 1kV. This short-circuit resistance is what makes the line a suitable solution for switchgears and internal device wiring.
