What is MCCMK-HF cable?
MCCMK-HF: halogen-free 1 kV power cable, XLPE-insulated copper cores under an EMC screen of metallised foil, concentric copper conductor, halogen-free sheath. Rating: 0,6/1 kV, Um 1,2 kV; 90 C conductor, 250 C short circuit. Standard: SFS 5546 (national construction), IEC 60502-1, EN 50575 (Prysmian).
Prysmian datasheet 'MCCMK-HF C-PRO 1KV Low smoke halogen-free EMC-screen-protected 1 kV power cable' (FI00_MCCMKHFCPRO1KV): copper, XLPE, 'Screen construction ... metallised foil', 'Screen material Copper, bare', 'Concentric conductor Copper', halogen-free filling and outer sheath; sizes 'MCCMK-HF C-PRO 3X1,5/1,5' to '4X16/16 RM'. A plain (PVC) MCCMK was not found, so only the HF name is read. The reading of the two Cs (screen, concentric conductor) follows the sheet; fi.wikipedia explains C only as the concentric conductor. Letters from fi.wikipedia 'Kaapeleiden merkintätavat' (secondary; it cites Sähköinfo's handbook and SFS 600): A = aluminium as the first letter, C = concentric copper neutral or protective conductor, E = fine-wire conductor (MKEM), K = cable, or stranded conductor (MKEM), M = plastic (muovi), O = control cable (MMO), S = indoor cable (MHS), X = cross-linked polyethylene; an S after the size is a green-yellow core, N none.

Fire behaviour (EU CPR)
Halogen-free compound (M, -HF, MCCMK-HF). Under the CPR this shows in the additional classes: acidity a1 to a3 (EN 60754-2) and smoke s1 to s3 (EN 50399; s1a and s1b add the 3 m cube test EN 61034-2). The main class, Aca to Fca, depends on the whole construction.
Typically targeted, as declared by makers for this kind of construction in the examples this site checked (not the class of this cable):
