What is Z1G-YMz1Kas cable?
Z1G-YMz1Kas: Dutch armoured halogen-free 0,6/1 kV ground cable, stranded copper conductors in XLPE insulation, a halogen-free inner sheath, an earth conductor, armour and a grey halogen-free outer sheath. Rating: 0,6/1 kV (TKF). Standard: KEMA-KEUR, installed to NEN 1010 (TKF).
TKF Z1G-YMz1Kas Cca 0,6/1 kV (sheet of 20-10-2026): armoured halogen-free power cable for NEN 1010 installations, for direct burial; copper class 2 stranded; XLPE insulation; armour: yes (its form is not printed); sheath material MBZH, grey; KEMA-KEUR; Cca-s1,d1,a1. Letters (HD 620 S3 10-J Appendix D): Z1 outer covering LS0H (position 4), G armour (position 3), Y XLPE, Mz1K LS0H sheath, as earth screen. The armour is drawn as steel wires and the earth conductor as copper wires: typical values, the sheet prints neither.

NEN / KEMA type names (Netherlands): how to read the cable type names
Fire behaviour (EU CPR)
Halogen-free compound (Z1, Z1G-YMz1Kas). 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):

Low-smoke compound (Mz1K). Smoke is graded s1 to s3 on the EN 50399 ladder; s1a and s1b add the 3 m cube test EN 61034-2.
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 →
