What is AMMK cable?
AMMK: aluminium power cable, PVC insulation, PVC sheath, no concentric conductor, 0,6/1 kV (HD 603 type 3F-2). Rating: 0,6/1 kV (HD 603 title); 1x35 to 1x1000, 3x50+25 to 3x300+150 and 4x16 to 4x300 mm² (Table 3). Standard: HD 603 S1:1994/A2:2003 section 3-F, Table 3 (p. 3-F-11): AMMK, aluminium cables of type 3F-2, without concentric conductor (contents p. 0-3); outer sheath DMV 9 weather resistant PVC, black (No. 6.1, 6.2, p. 3-F-4). seen: standard.
The A2 pages hold the name in Table 3 (aluminium cables) with its sizes, the inner covering (lapped 0,4 to 0,6 mm or extruded 1,0 to 1,6 mm) and the outer sheath (1,4 to 3,1 mm). They do not explain the letters: the split A, M, M, K follows the Finnish key (fi.wikipedia, secondary) and AMCMK, which differs by the concentric conductor C. 3x50+25 is three phase cores and a smaller fourth core. Before 2026-10-31 the VDE telecom letters read AMMK first.

Fire behaviour (EU CPR)
PVC sheath (M).
Typically targeted, as declared by makers for this kind of construction in the examples this site checked (not the class of this cable):
EcaN1XV-R, Ahlsell (seller)Cca-s3,d1,a3FG16OR16, Nexans (La Triveneta Cavi)EcaU1000 R2V, Nexans (La Triveneta Cavi)EcaN2XSY, Waskönig+Walter (10 kV datasheet)

A CPR class is declared by the maker in its Declaration of Performance and printed on the sheath (EN 50575 cl 7). This decoder does not assign one. What the CPR classes mean →
