A typical voltage rating is 0.6/1 kV.

This means that a cable with this rating is capable

of withstanding a voltage of 0.6 kV (600 volts rms) between the conductor and earth,
and 1 kV (1000 V rms) between adjacent conductors.

According to IEC 60183 (guide to selection of High voltage cables) the cables are specified U0/U,
where U0 = cable nominal voltage between the conductor and the metal covering or earth and U =
cable nominal voltage between the phase conductors, fo 3-phase U = Sqrt 3 U0r

in single phase systems, in which the both phase conductors are insulated, with nominal voltage
UN = 2 U0 in single phase systems, in which one phase conductor is earthed, with the nominal
voltage UN = U0

Standard cable nomenclature based on IEC Std 60183 used to designate cable voltage rating as follow:
Uo/U (Um)

Were
Uo = rated rms power frequency voltage, core to screen or sheath ~(VLN)
U = rated rms power frequency voltage, core to core. (VLL)
Um = max. rms power frequency voltage, core to core. (max VLL ~1.05 to 1.10 VLL)
