Cable designations compared · How to read a Old VDE 0250 cable code
NHXMH vs NHMH
Both designations are read in Old VDE 0250. The symbols they share mean the same; the rows marked below are where NHXMH and NHMH differ.
NHXMH and NHMH differ in: NHXMH: HX = Low Smoke Cross Linked Compound; NHMH: H = Low Smoke Cross Linked Compound.
NHXMH
| N | VDE Standard | in both |
| HX | Low Smoke Cross Linked Compound | only in NHXMH |
| MH | Connecting Cable, Moderate Mechanical Load | in both |
NHMH
| N | VDE Standard | in both |
| H | Low Smoke Cross Linked Compound | only in NHMH |
| MH | Connecting Cable, Moderate Mechanical Load | in both |
