FAQ

Questions engineers ask first

Not covered here? Send your drawing — an engineer replies within 2 business hours.

How does KGET (КГЭТ) differ from standard KGE (КГЭ)?
While both are 6 kV/10 kV screened open-pit excavator trailing cables per GOST 13497, KGET ('Т' = тропическое исполнение) is specifically engineered for tropical and equatorial surface mines with tinned copper conductors, ozone/UV-stabilised EPR, and a fungistatic, termite-resistant polychloroprene jacket. 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.
Why are tinned copper conductors used in KGET?
In tropical open-pit mines operating at +40 °C to +55 °C with 98 % relative humidity and acidic laterite groundwater, bare copper wires rapidly oxidize and turn brittle. Tinning every Class 5 copper strand prevents sulphide and moisture corrosion. 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 KGET be supplied for 10 kV open-pit shovel distribution systems?
Yes. KGET is manufactured in both 6/6 kV (tested at 15 kV AC) and 10/10 kV (tested at 20 kV AC) voltage classes to power large electric rope shovels, walking draglines, and mobile pit crushers. 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.
Does the tropical jacket resist cracking under intense equatorial sun?
Yes. The outer polychloroprene compound incorporates UV absorbers and antiozonants verified under GOST 15150-T1 solar radiation exposure so the cable can lie on sunlit quarry benches without surface crazing. 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.
