TRM-J vs TRMC-J — Side-by-Side Comparison
| Parameter | TRM-J | TRMC-J |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | VDE 0250 Part 812 | Mining Safety Mark (MA) |
| Voltage Rating | 0.69/1.15 kV (LV) | Medium voltage capable |
| Construction Layers | 6-layer | 7-layer |
| Screening | Single overall tinned copper braid (≥90%) | Double screen: individual core screens (Cu/Nylon) + overall braid |
| Conductor | Class 5 tinned copper | Very finely stranded flexible copper (higher flex life) |
| Core Insulation | EPR 3GI3 | EPR 3G13 |
| Outer Sheath | 5GM3 synthetic thermosetting | CR (Polychloroprene) — higher tear & oil resistance |
| Temp Range (Mobile) | -25°C to +90°C | -35°C to +60°C |
| Temp Range (Fixed) | -40°C to +90°C | -40°C to +80°C |
| OD (4×95mm²) | 55.5 mm | 60.0 mm |
| Weight (4×95mm²) | 6,322 kg/km | 7,156 kg/km |
| Primary Application | General mining trailing, reeling, light/medium duty | Extreme torsional stress, heavy continuous mining (drill rigs, stackers) |
| Target Voltage Range | Low voltage preferred | Low to medium voltage |
Key Takeaway: TRM-J is a cost-effective LV solution with wider operating temperature range; TRMC-J uses double-screen and CR sheath for extreme torsional environments where mechanical abuse and EMI are primary concerns.
