Application

The Flexible YY Control Cable is designed to be used as an interconnecting cable for measuring, controlling or regulation in control equipment for assembly and production lines, conveyors and for computer units.
Due to the flexibility of YY cable, electricians commonly use YY for linking fixed and mobile equipment. If protected correctly electricians have found that YY can be useful in outdoor projects - however it is recommended and most commonly used for indoor projects in dry or moist conditions.
