General Cable Anaconda® Brand Type SHD-GC 300MCM Power Shielded Round Portable w/Ground-Check EPR CPE 5000 Volts Three Conductor General Cable Cheap Sale

Product Details

Product Description:

Anaconda® Brand Type SHD-GC Power Shielded Round Portable W/Ground Check EPR CPE 5000 Volts Three Conductor cables are three-conductor cables that include two neutral ground conductors and a ground-check conductor.  The cable employ coated, rope-lay-stranded, annealed copper wires that align with ASTM B172.  The annealed copper product used in this cable offers superior flexibility compared to standard copper, but offers the same powerful conductive properties.  Each phase conductor is wrapped in an extruding thermosetting semi-conducting stress control layer.  The copper phase conductors and the neutral ground conductor are insulated with ethylene propylene rubber (EPR); a synthetic rubber that is resistant to sunlight, moisture, and oil.  The ground-check conductor is insulated in yellow polypropylene.  A flexible braided copper insulation shield is applied over a non-conducting overlapped tape.  The cable gets most of its strength from its extra heavy-duty exterior jacket.  The CPE jacket is a layer of lead-cured, chlorinated polyethylene.  This material is resistant to oils, chemicals, high or low temperatures, and weather.  CPE jacketed cables are also flame retardant and have great tensile strength.  The jacket helps with the cable’s overall resistance to crushing, abrasion, and cut-through.

Applications:

Anaconda® Brand Type SHD-GC Power Shielded Round Portable W/Ground Check EPR CPE 5000 Volts Three Conductor holds a temperature rating of -40°C to 90°C.  The cable is primarily used in light to medium-duty mining applications because of its durable yet flexible construction.  The cable can be used for heavy-duty tasks such as power supply cable, power cable for portable and mobile electric equipment, motors, and industrial appliances.  The cable can also be used in construction zones or locations with a high chance of vehicle run-over.  The cable passes FT-5 flame test and aligns with UL 1650, deeming the cable suitable for use in locations with an increased risk of fire.  Type SHD-GC cables are used in low and medium voltage AC circuits. 

Specifications: 

–                In accordance with specifications set forth by the American Society of Testing and Materials, a compliance and regulations organization established over 100 years ago, the cable aligns with ASTM standard B172, a standard for rope-lay-stranded conductors.

–                The cable also aligns with Underwriters Laboratories standard UL 1650, a standard that requires portable power cords to align with National Electric Code, NFPA 70.

–                The cable meets FT-5 flame test, a  UL vertical flame test of 1,700 BTU.

–                The cable is compliant with Restrictions of Hazardous Substances and is approved by the Mining Safety and Health Administration.

Construction:

–                Conductors

• The cable features two coated, rope-lay-stranded, annealed copper wire conductors.
• The cable uses coated, rope-lay-stranded, annealed copper wires.
• The annealed copper product used in this cable offers superior flexibility compared to standard copper, but offers the same powerful conductive properties. 

–                Ground Conductor

• The assembly includes a coated copper, rope-lay-stranded ground conductor.
• The ground conductor serves to ensure steady conductivity through the phase conductors.

–                Ground-Check Conductor

• The ground-check conductor is composed of Class B, coated, rope-lay-stranded, annealed copper.
• The ground-check conductor is insulated with yellow polypropylene.

–                Insulation

• The annealed copper phase conductors and the neutral ground conductor are insulated with ethylene propylene rubber (EPR).
• EPR is a synthetic rubber that is resistant to sunlight, moisture, and oil.

–                Extruded Insulation Shield

• The insulation shield is made of thermoset, semi-conductive material wrapped in copper tape.
• The shield serves to prevent leakage and electrical shock.

–                Jacket

• The cable’s jacket is a layer of lead-cured, chlorinated polyethylene (CPE).
• This material is resistant to oils, chemicals, high or low temperatures, and weather.
• The jacket adds tensile strength to the cable and also helps with the cable’s resistance to crushing, abrasion, and cut-through.
• The jacket comes standard in black but is available in colors if specified.
