Mining Cable
Type W Single Conductor Portable Power Cable 2kV
Applications:
Type W Single Conductor Portable Power Cables are designed for use on electric mining locomotives and
other mobile equipment of the gathering-reel type, where the cable must withstand constant flexing and
reeling.
Standards:
ICEA S-75-381/NEMA WC 58
ASTM B 172ASTM B 33
CAN/CSA C22.2 No.96
Construction:

Conductors: Stranded annealed tinned copper conductor.
Insulation:EPR.
Reinforcement: A layer of polyester braid, applied between the insulation and sheath for mechanical strength.
Sheath: Chlorinated Polyethylene(CPE), black. Other sheath materials can be offered as an option.
Options:
Other jacket materials such as CSP/PCP/NBR/PVC are available upon reques.
Two-layer jacket with reinforcing fibre between the two layers can be offered as an option.
Mechanical and Thermal Properties:
Minimum Bending Radius: 6×OD
Maximum Operating Temperature: +90℃
