TPU Type SHD-GC Portable Power Mining Industrial Cable 8000v

Applications:

TPU Type SHD-GC Portable Power Cable is designed for heavy-duty trailing cables on mining equipment where maximum safety is required. It is suitable for high voltage distribution in underground mines where portable power is necessary. The electrical cable is suitable for installation in ducts, troughs, and trays. SHD-GC electrical cables are used for off-track equipment and power feeders of underground mines since they have dielectric strength, excellent resistivity, low flammability, good elongation capability, low flexural modulus, and excellent resistance to water absorption, oils, and fuels.

Construction:

Conductor:

Flexible, rope stranded, uncoated annealed copper conductors per ICEA S-75-381 Paragraph 3.11 and ASTM B-3/B 173. 

Tape:

 A semi-conducting tape is applied over the conductor with a 10% minimum overlap. The tape shall meet the requirements of ICEA S-75-381 Paragraph 3.14. The separator is a ten mil nominal thickness semi-conducting tape colored black, white, and red is helically applied over the insulation with a 50% nominal overlap. The tape shall meet the requirements of ICEA S-75-381 Paragraph 3.17.

Insulation:

EPDM Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer insulation is flexible, durable, and resistant to moisture.

Shield:

The shield is a tinned coated copper braid with an 85% minimum coverage and is applied over the taped and insulated conductor. It shall meet the requirements of ICEA S-75-381 Paragraph 3.19.1.1. 

Ground Check Conductor:

The ground check conductor is a flexible rope-lay stranded, tin-coated annealed copper conductor insulated with 45 mils of a yellow insulating XLP compound. 

Jacket:

The jacket is black, yellow, or orange as a standard offering of heavy-duty thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU).
