Mining Cable

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

Applications

These heavy duty cables are designed for applications such as longwall shearers, continuous miners, loaders,

drills, conveyors, pumps, and other mobile equipment requiring grounding conductors, where a ground check

conductor, and metallic shielding are required.

Standards
