TYPE SHD-CGC 5 kV Mining Cable Flexible Tinned Copper Conductor 2/0 AWG to 350MCM

APPLICATION
Cable is used in underground long wall shearer systems where cables are required
to be shielded in conjunction with an extensible center ground check. Also used
where cables are required to be enclosed in a cable handler, such as long wall mining
applications or pendant wheel reeling systems.


CONSTRUCTION

• Conductors: Class I, tin coated, soft drawn, annealed, flexible rope-lay, stranded
copper construction per ASTM B-33 and B-172
• STRAND SHIELD: Extruded semi-conductive layer
• CONDUCTOR INSULATION: Lead free, flame resistant, Ethylene Propylene Rubber
(EPR) per ICEA S-75-381/NEMA WC-58
• INSULATION SHIELDS: Extruded semi-conductive layer under a tinned, annealed,
copper braid (60% minimum phase coverage), duplexed with a nylon denier textile
phase color ID tracer (40% max phase cover).
• Color Code: Black, White, Red
• Ground WIRES: Class I, uninsulated tin coated, soft drawn, annealed, rope bunched,
flexible lay strand construction copper per ASTM B-33 and B-172.
• GROUND CHECK: #16 AWG tinned, annealed copper, rope bunched, flexible lay,
extensible strand construction, with 45 mils of polypropylene (PPE) per ASTM B-33,
and B-172, ICEA S-75-381/NEMA WC-58, CAN/CSA-C22.2 No. 96 Portable Power
Cable Type SHD-GC and SHD-BGC
• CABLING: Three insulated and shielded conductors assembled in a helical
configuration with three uninsulated ground wires laid in the interstices to create a
balanced assembly. A #16 AWG extensible yellow insulated ground check placed in
the center interstice of the cable with a woven nylon polyester binder served over the
entire cabled assembly for added core stability per ICEA S-75-381/NEMA WC-58,
CAN/CSA-C22.2 No 96 Portable Power Cable Type SHD-GC and SHD-BGC.
• Inner Jacket: Extruded pure integral filled black MSHA approved flame resistant
thermosetting Chlorinated Polyethylene (CPE) designed to lock cabled assembly in
place to combat core movement and de-cabling in highly torsional applications.
• JACKET REINFORCEMENT: A woven nylon polyester binder shall be served between
the inner and outer jacket layers providing increased cable integrity. Also available
with taped core.
• OUTER Jacket: Mold cured, extra heavy-duty, thermosetting Chlorinated
Polyethylene (CPE).
• JACKET PRINT: Permanent marking, MFG, Brand, AWG size, type, voltage, operation
temp range
