FAQ

Questions engineers ask first

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

What is the purpose of the concentric tinned copper braid screen in TRM-J?
The ≥ 90 % coverage tinned copper wire braid positioned between the EI4 inner sheath and the yellow 5GM3 outer sheath provides both mechanical protection and an immediate earth-fault current path if the cable is crushed by rockfall or pierced by mobile mining equipment, tripping the earth-leakage relay before phase-to-phase arcing occurs.
What does '-J' mean in TRM-J?
In accordance with DIN VDE 0293, '-J' indicates that the cable includes an insulated green-yellow protective earth core in addition to the overall concentric tinned copper wire braid screen.
Why is TRM-J rated at 0.69/1.15 kV (640/1100 V)?
Underground mining and quarry distribution networks frequently operate at 660 V, 690 V or 1,000/1,100 V AC rather than standard 400 V industrial mains. TRM-J's 3GI3 EPR insulation is rated for 640/1100 V nominal and 690/1150 V (0.69/1.15 kV) continuous maximum operating voltage (Um = 1,270 V).
When should I move from TRM-J to 2XSEYQY or 3GSEYQY?
Use TRM-J for low-voltage mobile mining machinery and pumps up to 1.15 kV. For medium-voltage tunnel boring machines and underground substations at 6/10 kV or 18/30 kV, specify steel-wire-braid armoured 2XSEYQY (6/10 kV) or 3GSEYQY (18/30 kV).
