Specification

Allowable Ampacity for 500 MCM 3C Tinned Copper Shielded EPR CPE/CR 2KV Fleximining Medium Type SHD GC Cable: 100 Amps

About:

The "500 MCM AWG 3C Tinned Copper Shielded EPR CPE/CR 2KV Fleximining Medium Type SHD GC Cable" you are asking about is a specific type of industrial electrical cable.

Also Known As:

This cable is generally referred to by its specifications, which include 500 MCM AWG (American Wire Gauge) size, 3C (3-core), tinned copper shielding, EPR (Ethylene Propylene Rubber) insulation, CPE (Chlorinated Polyethylene) or CR (Chlorosulfonated Polyethylene) jacket, 2KV (2 kilovolts) rating, and its designation as a Fleximining Medium Type SHD GC (Super Heavy Duty Ground Check) cable.

Application:

• These cables are designed for use on AC off track equipment, long wall miners loaders, drills, shovels, conveyors, pumps and mobile equipment requiring grounding conductors and a ground check conductor and metallic shielding overall.
• Suitable for other industrial and mining applications such as cable reelers, festoons, gantry cranes, stackler/reclaimers.

Standards:

This cable likely meets specific industry standards, such as those set by IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) for electrical properties, or by UL (Underwriters Laboratories) for safety. The exact standards would depend on the manufacturer and the intended use of the cable.
