NF C32-322 is a French national standard (Norme Française) that specifies requirements for armoured low voltage power cables. These cables, commonly designated as U-1000 RVFV (copper conductor) and U-1000 ARVFV (aluminium conductor), are widely used rigid industrial cables designed for installations requiring mechanical protection. They represent the armoured equivalent of the NF C32-321 unarmoured cables.

Whilst low voltage generally refers to cables under 1kV voltage, the 1.9/3.3kV cables are often classified within this banding too. These cables represent the upper boundary of the "extended low voltage" classification and are primarily manufactured in accordance with British Standards BS5467 and BS6724. The 1.9/3.3kV rating indicates cables designed for systems where the phase-to-earth voltage is 1.9kV and phase-to-phase voltage is 3.3kV, with a maximum system voltage (Um) of 3.6kV.

British Standard BS5467 specifies the requirements for low voltage armoured cables with thermosetting insulation rated at 600/1000V for fixed installations. These cables feature galvanised steel wire armour (SWA) for multi-core configurations and non-magnetic aluminium wire armour (AWA) for single-core applications. The standard encompasses cables with 1 to 48 cores, utilizing either plain annealed stranded copper (Class 2) or solid aluminium (Class 1) conductors per BS 6360/IEC 60228. The cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) insulation ensures stable operation at maximum conductor temperatures of 90°C continuous and 250°C during short-circuit conditions.
