Reeling Speed 120m/min

The maximum pulling tension for NSHTÖU-J 5G16 0.6/1kV cable is absolutely limited to 1,200 newtons of axial tensile load under the VDE 0250-814 standard specification. This maximum is calculated as 15 N/mm² tensile stress multiplied by the total cross-sectional area of the five main copper conductors (five cores × 16 mm² = 80 mm² total), yielding 15 × 80 = 1,200 newtons. This is not a casual guideline or general recommendation—it is the absolute mechanical failure point beyond which the copper conductors begin plastic deformation and eventual rupture. For practical field deployment, however, the safe operating pulling tension should be substantially lower, typically in the range of 600–900 newtons depending on the specific installation scenario, representing a safety factor of 1.3–2.0 applied against the 1,200 newton absolute maximum. The reasoning is straightforward: you never want to operate consistently at the edge of mechanical failure, where even small unanticipated additional loads could cause catastrophic failure. Instead, you design systems to operate comfortably within safe margins where occasional transient overloads can be tolerated without damage.
