Application fit

Is (N)TSCGECEWÖU right for your machine?

Match the variant suffix to your mechanical and environmental duty — F-E red sheath is for fixed/semi-flexible distribution, -ATB and -GCC yellow sheaths are for trailing and drum reeling, and Submersible black sheath is for permanent water immersion up to 300 m.

Fixed installation

Suitable

F-E red-sheath variant for fixed and semi-flexible MV distribution in mines and alongside conveyors (6 × OD bend radius).

Trailing & towing

Suitable

-ATB and -GCC variants supply draglines, mining shovels, drills and mobile crushers under severe abrasion.

Motorised monospiral reel

Suitable

-ATB and -GCC variants include a polyester anti-torsion braid between sheaths for reeling duty (10–12 × OD).

Immersion & wet locations

Suitable

Submersible variant with waterproof EPR/CM sheaths rated for permanent immersion in salt or brackish water to 300 m.

Vertical / spreader reel

Not suitable

Vertical spreader baskets and high-speed container cranes require a high-speed reeling cable.

FAQ

Questions engineers ask first

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

How does (N)TSCGECEWÖU differ from standard NTSCGEWÖU?
The extra 'CE' in (N)TSCGECEWÖU denotes an individual metallic copper wire braid screen ('C') over each EPR-insulated phase core ('E'), in addition to the inner and outer semi-conductive rubber field-control layers. Whereas NTSCGEWÖU places three unscreened split earth conductors in the interstices between the semi-conductive cores, (N)TSCGECEWÖU surrounds every phase core with its own concentric copper wire braid that acts simultaneously as radial electrical screen and protective-earth fault path.
Which of the four (N)TSCGECEWÖU variants should I specify for my application?
Choose by mechanical movement and environment: (1) Base F-E (red sheath, 3+3) is designed for fixed or semi-flexible mine distribution alongside conveyors and switchgear; (2) -ATB (yellow sheath, 3+3) adds a vulcanised polyester anti-torsion braid between sheaths for trailing and drum reeling on draglines, shovels and drills; (3) -GCC (yellow sheath, 3+2+1) adds a 10 mm² copper ground-check conductor for pilot earth-continuity relays; and (4) Submersible (black waterproof CM sheath) is built for permanent immersion up to 300 m in salty or brackish water.
Does the standard 3+3 (N)TSCGECEWÖU include a ground-check pilot conductor?
No. Standard F-E, -ATB and Submersible (N)TSCGECEWÖU cables have a 3+3 geometry (three phase cores, each surrounded by its own copper wire braid protective-earth screen, laid up around a central rubber/polyester filler) without an auxiliary pilot core. When your mining switchgear requires a dedicated pilot loop for earth-continuity monitoring, specify the (N)TSCGECEWÖU-GCC variant, which provides a 3+2+1 configuration with a 10 mm² copper ground-check conductor.
How much must current capacity be derated when reeling (N)TSCGECEWÖU-ATB or -GCC on a drum?
When wound in multiple layers on a cylindrical drum, heat dissipation drops sharply. Based on the 30 °C floor ampacity, apply the standard VDE multi-layer derating factors: 0.80 for 1 wound layer, 0.61 for 2 layers, 0.49 for 3 layers, 0.42 for 4 layers, 0.38 for 5 layers, 0.27 for 6 layers, and 0.22 for 7 layers. For example, a 50 mm² cable rated at 202 A on the floor (3.6/6–6/10 kV) carries 162 A with 1 layer on the drum and 99 A with 3 layers.
How should the individual copper wire braid screens be terminated at medium-voltage switchgear?
At each cable end, the copper wire braid around each phase core must be unbraided, gathered and bonded to the earth terminal using a compatible medium-voltage stress-control termination kit. Never cut off the copper braid or treat it as mechanical armour — it carries capacitive charging currents and phase-to-earth fault currents, and preserves the smooth transition over the semi-conductive insulation screen.
