What’s NSSHCGEÖU(V) vs NSSHCGEÖU(Z) Reinforced Version Cable

1. Construction Differences (Key Points)

Conductor & Stranding

  • (V): Class 5 tinned copper, standard stranding
  • (Z) Reinforced: Class 5 FS (extra-fine stranded): higher flexibility, better torsion resistance

Pilot / Monitoring Cores

  • (V): Standard copper–steel composite pilot cores
  • (Z) Reinforced: Reinforced steel braid + thicker semiconductive layer → better crush/impact resistance

Armour / Concentric Earth (Critical Difference)

  • (V): Copper–steel wire braid, standard density
    • Tensile strength: ~15 N/mm²
  • (Z) Reinforced: High-density double-layer copper–steel braid + optional aramid reinforcement
    • Tensile strength: ~30 N/mm² (double)
    • Higher torsion resistance: ±50°/m vs standard ±25°/m

2. Applications

NSSHCGEÖU(V) – Standard Use

  • Coal cutters, shearers, light–medium LHDs
  • Normal trailing, frequent bending, moderate tension
  • Underground mines, wet/oily/dusty areas, occasional shallow water

NSSHCGEÖU(Z) Reinforced – Heavy-Duty Use

  • Heavy LHDs, TBMs, long-wall equipment
  • High-speed drum reeling, tight sheaves, vertical shafts
  • Extreme tension, torsion, crush/impact loads
  • Long service life required; less downtime for replacement

 3. Short Summary

  • (V) = Standard tensile & torsion, general mining mobile equipment.
  • (Z) Reinforced = Double tensile + double torsion + tighter bending, for heavy/high-speed mining machinery.
