28 VDC Ground Power Cable for Aircraft GPU and Airport Ground Support
TEBAOFLEX 28 VDC ground power cable is built for aircraft GPU carts, grounded pits, passenger boarding bridges, and other airport ground support systems. The cable combines extra-flexible tinned copper conductors, integrated 4×1 mm2 control cores, EPR insulation, and a high-visibility PUR sheath for demanding tarmac operation.
28 VDC Ground Power Cable for Aircraft Ground Support
TEBAOFLEX manufactures 28 VDC ground power cable for aircraft ground power units, mobile GPU carts, grounded pit systems, and passenger boarding bridges. The cable is designed for low-voltage DC aircraft power delivery where flexibility, voltage stability, abrasion resistance, and long service life on airport aprons are critical.
Unlike general industrial power cable, this aviation ground support cable is built for repeated dragging, bending, vehicle movement, fuel exposure, UV exposure, and outdoor temperature changes. It is suitable for civil airports, military airfields, GSE equipment manufacturers, MRO facilities, and EPC contractors that need reliable 28V DC aircraft power cable in bulk or customized assemblies.
Key Features of the TEBAOFLEX 28V DC Aircraft Power Cable
- Extra-flexible tinned copper conductor: fine-stranded copper improves handling and helps reduce fatigue during mobile ground power operation.
- Integrated control cores: 4×1 mm2 control cores support sense voltage feedback and control communication between the cable assembly and the ground power unit.
- EPR insulation: cross-linked ethylene-propylene rubber insulation supports flexibility and electrical stability in demanding airport environments.
- Abrasion-resistant PUR outer sheath: the yellow polyurethane jacket improves visibility and resists mechanical wear on concrete tarmac surfaces.
- Orange wear warning layer: the contrasting inner layer helps ground crews identify sheath damage before the conductor insulation is exposed.
- Weather-resistant design: built for outdoor airport use with resistance to oil, UV, ozone, moisture, and temperature change.
- Custom manufacturing: available in common conductor sizes and customer-specific lengths, colors, markings, and connector-ready configurations.

28 VDC Ground Power Cable FAQ
What is a 28 VDC ground power cable used for?
A 28 VDC ground power cable connects aircraft or aviation ground support equipment to a 28-volt DC ground power source. It is commonly used with mobile GPU carts, grounded pits, boarding bridges, hangars, MRO facilities, and military airfield ground support systems.
Why does an aircraft GPU cable need integrated control cores?
Integrated control cores help provide sense voltage feedback and control communication between the cable assembly and the ground power unit. This helps the GPU monitor voltage delivery more accurately during aircraft ground support operation.
Why use a PUR sheath instead of a standard PVC sheath?
PUR sheathing is more suitable for tarmac service because it offers stronger abrasion resistance, flexibility, oil resistance, and outdoor durability than standard PVC cable jackets.
Can TEBAOFLEX customize 28V DC aircraft power cable?
Yes. TEBAOFLEX can supply bulk cable, cut lengths, custom conductor sizes, custom sheath colors, cable markings, and connector-ready cable assemblies based on project requirements.
