WG / WG-D Medium Voltage Rubber Reeling Cable is a flexible round power-cable family for motor-driven cable reels. It covers 3.6/6 kV to 12/20 kV systems and is designed for container cranes with lower mounting heights, medium-duty equipment, stackers, reclaimers and ship unloaders. WG is the standard power-cable configuration; WG-D provides power-and-data configurations.
Applications
- Motor-driven cable reels and horizontal moving equipment.
- Container-crane power supply with low mounting heights.
- Stackers, reclaimers, ship unloaders and other medium-duty machinery.
- Systems that require a robust reeling cable with data-transfer capability where specified.
Construction
- Conductor: very fine stranded flexible copper, Class FS.
- Core insulation: triple and simultaneously extruded rubber insulation with inner and outer semiconducting layers.
- Inner sheath: double layer with an EPR rubber compound.
- Outer sheath: wear-resistant PCP (polychloroprene) rubber compound, red.
- Core identification: black insulation with white numbers.
