FAQ

Questions engineers ask first

What does KGESh (КГЭШ) stand for in the GOST mining cable system?

'К' stands for Кабель (cable), 'Г' stands for Гибкий (flexible), 'Э' stands for Экранированный (screened), and 'Ш' stands for Шахтный (underground mine duty). It is the standard screened flexible rubber trailing cable for 380/660 V and 660/1140 V underground coal and ore mining machinery.

Why are both the power cores and the control cores individually screened in KGESh?

In gassy underground coal mines, any damage that bridges a live 1140 V power core to a low-voltage pilot core could inject hazardous voltage into remote control stations. Surrounding both power and control cores with grounded semi-conductive elastomeric screens ensures immediate relay tripping. Each production drum undergoes routine dielectric voltage testing, conductor DC resistance verification, and sheath dimensional inspection before dispatch with an EN 10204 3.1 mill test certificate.

When should I upgrade from KGESh to KGETSh or KGEZhTSh?

Use standard KGESh for general underground roadheaders, face loaders, and drilling rigs. Upgrade to KGETSh ('Т' = тяжелый heavy-duty) for severe mechanical impact on high-power shearers, or KGEZhTSh ('Ж' = steel-rope reinforced) when steep seams or long trailing pulls impose high axial tension. Each production drum undergoes routine dielectric voltage testing, conductor DC resistance verification, and sheath dimensional inspection before dispatch with an EN 10204 3.1 mill test certificate.

Can KGESh be supplied with +90 °C EPR insulation instead of +75 °C rubber?

Yes. We supply KGESh with ethylene-propylene rubber (EPR) insulation rated for +90 °C continuous conductor operation, providing higher current ratings and superior thermal ageing life in warm deep-mine headings. Each production drum undergoes routine dielectric voltage testing, conductor DC resistance verification, and sheath dimensional inspection before dispatch with an EN 10204 3.1 mill test certificate.
