FAQ

Questions engineers ask first

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

What does the '(C)' suffix at the end of (N)GRDGÖU-O 12×1(C) or 6×(2×1)C mean?
In DIN VDE 0250 crane cable notation, '(C)' placed after the core or pair dimension indicates that each individual core (in 12×1(C) to 36×1(C)) or each twisted pair (in 6×(2×1)C and 9×(2×1)C) has its own tinned copper braid screen, rather than a single overall screen around the whole cable.
What are the hybrid 19×2.5 + 5×1(C) and 25×2.5 + 5×1(C) constructions used for?
These composite crane cables combine 19 or 25 unscreened 2.5 mm² contactor/brake control cores with 5 individually copper-screened 1.0 mm² cores for analog load-cell, tachometer or encoder signals inside a single round festoon cable.
How does (N)GRDGÖU-O(C) differ from (N)GRDGCGÖU?
(N)GRDGÖU-O(C) screens individual control cores or twisted pairs to prevent channel-to-channel crosstalk, whereas (N)GRDGCGÖU places an overall tinned copper braid ('C') between the inner and outer sheaths to shield high-current VFD motor power cores.
What optical coverage is provided on the individual core and pair screens?
Individual core braids provide approximately 60 % surface coverage for flexible bending over festoon saddles, while twisted-pair braids provide approximately 80 % coverage optimized for transfer impedance up to 30 MHz.
