JZ-500 PVC Control Cable for Industrial Machinery and Control Systems
TEBAOFLEX JZ-500 is a flexible PVC control and connection cable designed for industrial machinery, control cabinets, conveyor systems, assembly lines, production equipment and plant engineering applications. It is suitable for flexible use under medium mechanical stress where the cable moves freely without tensile load or forced motion control.
The cable construction follows common DIN VDE control cable practice, with fine stranded copper conductors, PVC insulation, numbered black cores and a grey PVC outer sheath. For wider control cable options, you can also visit our Industrial & Control Cables category.

Cable Construction
- Fine stranded Class 5 copper conductor for flexible control wiring
- PVC insulation for stable low-voltage electrical performance
- Black numbered cores for easy identification during installation
- Green-yellow protective earth conductor in JZ version
- Grey PVC outer sheath for industrial control and connection applications
- Available in different core numbers and conductor sizes on request
Typical Applications
JZ-500 PVC control cable is used in machine tools, conveyor belts, assembly lines, production lines, control cabinets, plant construction, air-conditioning technology and general industrial equipment wiring.
It is suitable for flexible applications with medium mechanical stress, provided that the cable is not exposed to tensile stress, torsion-heavy movement or forced guidance. For more demanding movement, oil exposure, outdoor use or drag chain operation, TEBAOFLEX can recommend a more suitable flexible cable design.
JZ-500 vs OZ-500
JZ-500 includes a green-yellow protective earth conductor. OZ-500 is the version without green-yellow earth core. The correct version should be selected according to the electrical design and grounding requirements of the equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is JZ-500 control cable used for?
JZ-500 is used as a flexible PVC control and connection cable for machine tools, conveyor systems, assembly lines, control cabinets and industrial equipment wiring.
What does JZ mean in JZ-500 cable?
JZ usually indicates a numbered-core control cable with a green-yellow protective earth conductor. The related OZ version is normally supplied without a green-yellow earth core.
Can JZ-500 cable be used outdoors?
Standard JZ-500 is mainly intended for dry, damp and wet rooms and is not generally recommended for open-air outdoor installation unless the cable design is specifically adapted for that environment.
