Type 621 BS 6708 3800/6600 V Armoured Mining Cable

Type 621 for excavating and crushing machines in deep mines and on the surface

Type 621 mining cable is specified in the supplied BS 6708 datasheet for excavating and crushing machines in deep mines and on the surface. This page keeps the source-listed voltage, test reference, core functions and dimensional tables together so a procurement engineer can compare the requested model against the cable marking and the equipment connection. The editorial focus is the unscreened-core armoured 6.6 kV selection, not a generic promise of performance.

The supplied construction uses three phase cores and one pilot core, all unscreened, laid up in contact with one another and protected by galvanized steel pliable armour between inner and outer sheaths. That arrangement matters because Type 621 is armoured and unscreened; it is therefore a different construction path from individually screened Type 630/631 and Type 730. The family should therefore be selected by model, core function and installation route as well as by voltage. The Ассортимент кабелей для горнодобывающей и туннельной промышленности provides the wider TEBAOFLEX product context.

• Выберите по: confirm that the machine design accepts the unscreened three-phase and pilot arrangement before comparing Type 621 with Type 630 or Type 730.
• Подтвердите перед заказом: existing sheath marking, conductor area, cable length, route, support or handling system, terminations and the required inspection documents.
• Do not infer: values not listed in the supplied PDF, such as a different current basis, water/oil/UV performance, certification scope or mechanical interchangeability.

For a project review that includes equipment connection, cable handling and documentation, use the Mining & Tunnelling solutions page as a planning companion to this Type 621 data.

For a technical quotation, send the equipment nameplate or existing cable marking, voltage and size requirement, installation conditions, quantity, destination and any project-specific test or documentation requirement.

Type 621 construction

The cross-section below is the supplied construction drawing for Type 621. The ordering decision is driven by Type 621 is armoured and unscreened; it is therefore a different construction path from individually screened Type 630/631 and Type 730.

Source-listed construction

Do not use the drawing as a substitute for the dimensional tables. Confirm the cable end preparation, screen and earth termination, armour bonding and machine interface with the equipment documentation before installation.

Type 621 applications

The supplied datasheet identifies this cable for excavating and crushing machines in deep mines and on the surface. Google result patterns for the BS 6708 family also separate cables by equipment duty, voltage class, core function and whether the route is armoured, screened, flat or auxiliary. That is why this page keeps the Type 621 construction separate from nearby Type numbers.

• Primary duty: excavating and crushing machines in deep mines and on the surface.
• Model boundary: Type 621 is armoured and unscreened; it is therefore a different construction path from individually screened Type 630/631 and Type 730.
• Project check: match the cable marking, core map, voltage, termination, route geometry and handling method to the machine drawing.
• Environmental review: confirm the actual mine/quarry conditions and any authority, inspection or documentation requirements; do not infer a certification or material-resistance claim from the model number.

For projects evaluating the paired Type 630/631 construction, see the Type 630/631 armoured mining cable page and compare the source-listed core and armour details.

The cable should be released only after the equipment route, required length, conductor area, core functions and connection details are agreed. If the intended duty is different from the source-listed application, request an engineering review through the quotation process.

Type 621 specifications

The summary below identifies the supplied model family. The source-transcribed tables that follow retain the PDF's dimensional, electrical and construction values, including available sizes, resistance, current, diameter, mass, bending or pulling data when the PDF provides them.

Complete source-transcribed technical tables

Source PDF: BS6708_TYPE_621_3800_6600V_ARMOURED_POWER_CABLE_datasheet.pdf; 3 pages; 6 extracted tables. Values are not recalculated or replaced by third-party values.

Use the table values with the equipment drawing and approved termination plan. If the requested conductor area, current basis, mechanical limit or environmental condition is not listed in the supplied PDF, treat it as a quotation-stage confirmation item.

Type 621 standards and references

The product page preserves the BS 6708 reference appearing in the supplied PDF. The BSI record currently identifies BS 6708:1998 as withdrawn on 22 May 2026; this status note is a standards-reference update, not a claim that the product is currently certified or approved. See the official BSI BS 6708 scope record for the published status.

For an RFQ, state the required standard documents, inspection scope, test report, cable marking, destination rules and any replacement-equivalence requirement. The model number alone does not establish legal installation compliance.
