CODE of CABLE

  • TYPE 730

INTRODUCTION

Type 730 cables are used as trailing cables for supplying large machines. These cables are ideal for use in both deep mines and on the surface, where explosive gases and dust might gather.

SECTION RANGE

  • From 35mm2 up to 150mm2

CONDUCTOR QUANTITY

  • Three cores, all with composite individual screens laid up in contact with each other. Large cross-section types have central earth conductor as well.

COLOUR CODE of CABLE

  • Insulation Colour code could be according to the International Standards or customer’s request/demand.

NOTE: These cables should not be installed at temperatures below -40°C or above 80°C
