Product Overview

The Type G-GC Power Cable is a rugged, round portable cable engineered for high-safety AC mining applications requiring ground-check monitoring. Featuring EPR insulation and a reinforced CPE jacket, this cable is built to withstand extreme mechanical stress, environmental hazards, and continuous flexing. Rated for 2000 volts and 90°C, it ensures reliable power transmission with fail-safe ground integrity in critical industrial environments.

Key Features

  • Voltage Rating: 2000V for heavy-duty power applications.

  • Temperature Rating: 90°C continuous operation.

  • Ground-Check Conductor: Enables real-time, fail-safe ground monitoring for enhanced safety.

  • Rope-Lay Conductors: Exceptional flexibility and resistance to wire breakage.

  • Reinforced Jacket: Two-layer CPE construction for superior abrasion, oil, and chemical resistance.

  • Compliance: Meets ICEA S-75-381 and MSHA flame-test standards.

Construction Details
