Mining Cable

Type SHD-PCG Three-Conductor Portable Power Cable 5kV

Applications

These heavy duty cables are designed for use on longwall shearers, where three shielded power conductors,

three unshielded control conductors, and a grounding conductor are required.

Standards

ICEA S-75-381/NEMA WC 58

ASTM B 172

ASTM B 33

CAN/CSA-C22.2 No.96

Construction

Type SHD-PCG Three-Conductor Portable Power Cable 5kV

Conductors: Stranded annealed tinned copper conductor.

Insulation:EPR.

Insulation Shield:Non-conducting Tape + Tinned copper/textile braid.

Control Group (3 Conductors):Tinned copper conductor, EPR insulation and thermosetting sheath. Colour of

insulation: Black, white and red.

Grounding Conductor:Tinned copper conductor, located in the center of the cable.

Sheath: Reinforced extra-heavy-duty Chlorinated Polyethylene(CPE), black. Other sheath materials can be

offered upon request.

Options:

Other jacket materials such as CSP/PCP/NBR/PVC are available upon request.

Two-layer jacket with reinforcing fibre between the two layers can be offered as an option.
