Construction Details

1. Conductor: Class 5 finely stranded copper wire (IEC 60228). Tinned option available for corrosive environments.

2. Insulation: High-temperature silicone rubber (Grade G) extruded uniformly via tube process, ensuring excellent dielectric strength and environmental sealing.

3. Core Identification: Color-coded cores (Customizable: Black/Red/Yellow or numbered).

4. Filling (Optional): Non-hygroscopic material for core bedding and roundness.

5. Shielding (YGCP/JGGP): Electrically continuous copper braid (≥85% coverage) for EMI/RFI protection.

6. Armoring (YGG2G): Double-layer galvanized steel tape armor (corrosion/impact protection).

7. Sheath: High-grade silicone rubber (Grade G) extruded over core assembly, providing abrasion, chemical, UV, and temperature resistance. Flame-retardant compound used in ZR- models.

Application Scenarios

• Industrial Machinery: Power feeds for motors, pumps, generators in steel mills, foundries, smelters.

• High-Temperature Zones: Ovens, furnaces, kilns, heating tunnels, boiler rooms.

• Corrosive Environments: Chemical plants, petrochemical refineries, wastewater treatment.

• Outdoor/Harsh Conditions: Solar farms, mining equipment, port machinery, coastal installations.

• Equipment Requiring Shielding (YGCP): VFD cables, CNC machines, sensitive instrumentation.

• Mechanically Stressed Areas (YGG2G): Direct burial, cable trays subject to impact, mining operations.

• Fixed Installations (JGG/JGGR): High-temp plant wiring, control panels.

Selection & Ordering Guide

1. Specify Model: Choose core construction (YGC, YGCP, YGG2G, JGG, etc.).
