(N)SHOEU Cable for Mining, Tunneling and Pump Connections

(N)SHOEU is a 0.6/1 kV rubber-sheathed flexible power cable for mining and tunneling applications where the cable may be laid along conveyors, connected to shiftable machinery, installed on material-handling equipment, or used between upper and lower cars. It is also specified for cable suspension fittings and for submersible pump connections up to a maximum depth of 500 m.

The cable combines Class 5 finely stranded bare copper conductors, EPR-based insulation, an EPR inner sheath and a yellow 5GM5 chlorinated-rubber outer sheath. This construction gives procurement teams a defined low-voltage mining cable for indoor and outdoor routes, including wet and mechanically demanding industrial environments.

For engineering selection, (N)SHOEU should not be treated as a generic building wire or a universal high-cycle reeling cable. The project should check tensile load, torsion, bending radius according to DIN VDE 0298-3, travel speed, water depth, ambient temperature and whether an -O or -J core identification is required.

Key Engineering Features

  • Mining-focused rubber construction: EPR insulation and a 5GM5 yellow rubber sheath are selected for mobile and harsh industrial routes rather than fixed indoor distribution only.
  • Class 5 bare copper conductor: Finely stranded copper improves flexibility for handling, machine connection and cable suspension compared with rigid conductors.
  • Wet-duty capability: The supplied data states suitability for submersible pump connections and water resistance according to EN 50525-2-21, with maximum water depth limited to 500 m.
  • Outdoor and chemical resistance: The cable is listed for unrestricted indoor/outdoor use and resistance to ozone, moisture and oil exposure according to the stated test references.
  • Defined motion limits: Maximum torsional stress is ±100°/m, maximum tensile load on the conductor is 15 N/mm², and winding drum car speed is limited to 60 m/min.
  • Optional screen note: For KON concentric-screen versions only, a closed layer of copper wires may be spun over the core assembly. Do not specify this screen unless the required version is confirmed.
  • Clear core identification: Standard core insulation is light grey with black digits. -J versions include a green/yellow protective conductor; -O versions are without green/yellow conductor.
