LAPP ÖLFLEX® UNIPLUS 1X16 YE – 4520116U100 is a professional 16 sq. mm single-core electrical cable designed for reliable electrical wiring, power connections, control-panel applications and suitable fixed electrical installations. Manufactured by LAPP, this cable belongs to the ÖLFLEX® UNIPLUS series, which is designed for industrial and commercial electrical wiring applications requiring reliable conductivity, flexible handling and dependable insulation.
The product features a single 16 mm² conductor and carries the LAPP article number 4520116U100. The YE designation indicates the yellow colour of the cable insulation. Its single-core configuration allows the conductor to be routed individually between electrical components, terminals, switchgear and distribution equipment.
The cable incorporates a fine-wire bare copper conductor with Class 5 construction, offering a combination of good electrical conductivity and flexibility. The flexible conductor construction makes the cable easier to handle, route and terminate, particularly when working inside electrical panels, cabinets and other areas where organized cable routing is important.
The copper conductor is protected by PVC insulation, which provides electrical separation and helps protect the conductor from accidental contact with surrounding conductive components. PVC insulation also contributes to the cable's durability and practical installation characteristics.
The ÖLFLEX® UNIPLUS 1X16 YE is designed for a 1.1 kV AC RMS nominal voltage and a 3 kV test voltage, making it suitable for compatible low-voltage electrical installations. The ÖLFLEX® UNIPLUS range also incorporates flame-retardant characteristics, making it suitable for applications where flame-retardant cable construction is required.
The 16 mm² conductor cross-section provides a suitable solution for electrical applications requiring a comparatively larger single-core conductor.
The conductor is made from bare copper and uses a fine-wire Class 5 construction. This provides good electrical conductivity while maintaining flexibility for practical installation.
The flexible conductor can make routing and termination easier in applications such as:
The actual current-carrying capacity should always be determined according to the installation method, ambient temperature, grouping conditions, conductor arrangement and applicable electrical standards.
The LAPP ÖLFLEX® UNIPLUS 1X16 YE uses PVC insulation around the copper conductor.
The insulation provides electrical separation between the conductor and surrounding components while helping protect the conductor during normal handling, installation and operation.
PVC is widely used in electrical cables because it offers a practical combination of electrical insulation, durability and installation flexibility.
The yellow insulation also makes the conductor easy to distinguish from other cables within an organized electrical installation.
The YE designation represents the yellow colour of the cable.
The yellow insulation provides clear visual identification during installation, inspection and maintenance. This can be useful where different cable colours are used to distinguish individual conductors within electrical panels and equipment.
The cable colour should always be used according to the applicable electrical standards and the conductor identification scheme of the particular installation.
The LAPP ÖLFLEX® UNIPLUS 1X16 YE is designed with a 1.1 kV AC RMS nominal voltage rating.
This makes it suitable for compatible low-voltage electrical wiring and power distribution applications where the cable's voltage rating corresponds with the requirements of the electrical system.
The cable also has a 3 kV test voltage, supporting electrical insulation testing and quality verification.
When selecting the cable for an actual installation, the voltage rating should be considered together with current requirements, installation method, ambient temperature, conductor grouping and applicable electrical regulations.
The ÖLFLEX® UNIPLUS range incorporates flame-retardant characteristics for suitable electrical applications.
Flame-retardant cable construction is an important consideration in electrical systems where limiting flame propagation is required under specified test conditions.
This characteristic makes the cable suitable for consideration in applications such as:
The cable should always be installed according to the manufacturer's recommended installation conditions and applicable safety requirements.
The single-core design allows the conductor to be routed individually within an electrical system.
Its fine-wire Class 5 construction provides flexibility and can make the cable easier to bend, route and terminate during installation.
This can be especially useful for:
Maintaining the recommended bending radius during installation helps prevent unnecessary mechanical stress on the cable.
The LAPP ÖLFLEX® UNIPLUS 1X16 YE – 4520116U100 can be considered for a wide range of suitable electrical and industrial applications.
The cable can be used for appropriate internal wiring inside control panels where a 16 mm² single-core conductor is required.
Its flexible conductor construction makes it convenient for routing individual conductors inside electrical cabinets.
The cable can be considered for suitable electrical connections within switchgear assemblies and electrical distribution systems.
It can be used for compatible power and electrical distribution wiring where the conductor size and electrical characteristics meet the requirements.
The cable can be used for suitable electrical connections inside distribution boxes and electrical enclosures.
It can be considered for fixed electrical wiring in compatible industrial machinery and equipment.
The fine-wire construction makes the cable convenient to route through suitable ducts, tubes and protected installation paths.
The cable features a 1 × 16 mm² configuration, making it suitable for electrical applications requiring a 16 mm² single-core conductor.
The copper conductor provides good electrical conductivity while the fine-wire construction offers flexibility during installation.
The Class 5 construction makes the conductor flexible and convenient to handle during routing and termination.
PVC insulation provides electrical separation and protection around the copper conductor.
The YE version features yellow insulation for clear visual identification.
Suitable for compatible electrical installations within the specified voltage rating.
Provides the specified electrical test voltage for insulation testing.
The ÖLFLEX® UNIPLUS range incorporates flame-retardant characteristics for suitable applications.
The fine-wire construction makes the cable easier to bend, route and terminate.
Suitable for compatible control panels, cabinets, switchgear, distribution systems and industrial electrical installations.
