Ground-Check Mining Cable
G-GC construction includes grounding and ground-check conductors for monitored portable mine power routes.
G-GC Mining Cable
G-GC Mining Cable for mining, portable power and heavy-duty industrial routes.
G-GC Mining Cable supports portable mine power routes where ground-check function, flexible construction and heavy-duty sheath performance are required.
Product Overview
G-GC Mining Cable should be selected according to the actual project route, not by product name alone. Before quotation, review equipment duty, voltage class, grounding or ground-check requirement, shielding, flexibility and abrasion exposure. Datasheet wording, compliance documents and final supply notes should stay aligned with the selected standard and installation conditions.
Applications
- surface and underground mining power routes
- portable mining equipment and trailing cable use
- mine feeder and heavy-duty industrial power supply
- abrasion, movement and mechanical-stress cable environments
Construction
Flexible copper conductor construction with rubber insulation, ground conductor or ground-check conductor where required, shielding for SHD routes and heavy-duty rubber sheath. Voltage class, conductor size, shield/ground design and mine standard should be confirmed before supply.
Marking on Cable
FARWALK CABLE – G-GC Mining Cable – [standard] – [voltage] – [core x size] – [year] – [meter mark]
Cable Identification
- Phase, ground and ground-check conductors should be clearly identified according to mining cable type.
- Sheath marking should show voltage class, cable type and conductor size when required.
Standards
- ICEA S-75-381
- NEMA WC 58
- UL 1650
- CSA C22.2 No.96 where specified
Main Features
Portable Equipment Supply
Used for shovels, drills, loaders and other mining equipment requiring flexible power cable.
Used for shovels, drills, loaders and other mining equipment requiring flexible power cable.
For G-GC Mining Cable, voltage class, conductor size, shield or non-shield route and jacket material should match mine conditions.
Product Selection Guide
Mining Cable Type
Separate Type W, G-GC, MP-GC, SHD, SHD-GC, SHD-PCG and SHD-CGC before selecting construction.
Voltage Class
Confirm 2kV, 5kV, 8kV, 15kV, 25kV or higher project voltage before reviewing insulation and shield design.
Grounding / Monitoring
Select grounding, ground-check, pilot or shielded construction according to mine safety requirements.
Mechanical Duty
Check dragging, abrasion, bending radius, reeling, temperature and chemical exposure before selecting jacket material.
