What is XMvK cable?
XMvK: Dutch light installation cable, 450/750 V, solid copper conductors in cross-linked polyolefin (XLPE) insulation, a filler and a grey PVC sheath. Rating: 450/750 V, 90 C conductor, 250 C short circuit (Waskönig). Standard: KEMA K42-C 07-1,2,3 (Waskönig XMvK-G); NEN 1010.
Waskönig XMvK-G: installation cable, XLPE insulated, 450/750 V, to KEMA K42-C 07-1,2,3; class 1 solid copper; insulation polyolefin; grey PVC sheath; Eca, IEC/EN 60332-1-2. Kabelwerk Eupen XMvK Eca 450/750 V (title of the sheet): solid copper, XLPE insulation, filler, grey PVC sheath, light installation cable for dwellings. Not a 0,6/1 kV IEC 60502-1 cable. The X is not a letter of the KEMA key (its insulation letters are B, E, G, P, R, S, V, V4, Y; Cebeo Tome 04 2011 p. 29): it is read from the makers' construction.
