With features tailored to the unique requirements of mining operations, this cable ensures uninterrupted operation and enhanced safety, making it the ideal choice for critical mining applications.

**Product Overview:**

The Type SHD-GC Ethylene Propylene Rubber Mining Cable is engineered to deliver exceptional performance in demanding mining environments.

With a focus on reliability, safety, and durability, this cable is designed to meet the rigorous requirements of AC mining equipment, ensuring uninterrupted operation in challenging conditions.

**Key Components:**

1. **Conductor:** The cable features 6 AWG through 500 kcmil coated annealed copper conductors, consisting of bunched wires rope-lay-stranded per ASTM B172. This construction ensures optimal conductivity and flexibility, essential for mining applications.

2. **Insulation:** Ethylene Propylene Rubber (EPR) insulation provides excellent electrical insulation properties, offering protection against heat, moisture, steam, oil, chemicals, and radiation. The flexible insulation shield enhances shock hazard protection, ensuring the safety of personnel and equipment.

3. **Insulation Shield:** A flexible coated copper/textile braid shield is applied over non-conducting overlapped tape, providing additional protection and shielding against external interference and induced voltages in the grounding system.

4. **Ground Check Conductor:** Annealed copper, rope-lay-stranded per ASTM B172, insulated with high-strength yellow polypropylene, serves as the ground check conductor, enabling fail-safe monitoring and ensuring operational safety.

5. **Grounding Conductors:** Coated copper, rope-lay-stranded per ASTM B172, with two conductors in contact with the flexible copper braid shield, ensure effective grounding and shielding, minimizing the risk of hazards associated with induced voltages.

6. **Jacket:** The cable features a reinforced, two-layer, extra-heavy-duty, lead- cured Chlorinated Polyethylene (CPE) jacket. This robust jacket provides maximum protection from mechanical damage, including cutting, impact, abrasion, flame, and sunlight exposure.
