Cable designations compared · How to read a DIN VDE 0271/0276 cable code
NA2XRH vs NA2XSEH
Both designations are read in DIN VDE 0271/0276. The symbols they share mean the same; the rows marked below are where NA2XRH and NA2XSEH differ.
NA2XRH and NA2XSEH differ in: NA2XRH: R = Round Steel Wire; NA2XSEH: SE = Copper Screen, Over Individual Core.

| A | Aluminium Conductor | in both |
| 2X | Cross Linked Polyethelene (XLPE) | in both |
| R | Round Steel Wire | only in NA2XRH |
| H | Low Smoke Zero Halogen Compound | in both |
NA2XSEH
| N | VDE Standard | in both |
| A | Aluminium Conductor | in both |
| 2X | Cross Linked Polyethelene (XLPE) | in both |
