Physical & electrical characteristics

1.1/1.1 kV Type A feeder cables

1.1/1.1 kV Type B feeder cables

Type A and B cables are 1.1/1.1 kV feeder cables conforming to AS/NZS 1972, featuring individually screened power cores for applications demanding combined screen conductance per standard requirements. Type A includes three pilot cores for control and signalling, while Type B omits pilots. These semi-flexible cables are designed for frequent handling between transportable substations and associated equipment, providing robust performance in challenging mining environments.

Product Features

  • Individually Screened Cores: Each power core is screened to ensure the combined screen conductivity meets AS/NZS 1972 requirements.

  • Pilot Options: Type A includes three pilot cores for modern monitoring and control; Type B provides a pilot-free alternative.

  • Semi-Flexible Design: Balances flexibility for frequent movement with robustness for mining duty.

  • Fire Retardant: Complies with AS/NZS 1972 flame and fire performance criteria.

  • Durable Sheath: HD-85-PCP outer sheath offers protection against mechanical impact, chemicals, water ingress, and UV/weathering.


Application Areas

Ideal for interconnecting transportable substations, control equipment, and mobile machinery in underground and surface mining, where cables are frequently moved and require reliable screening performance.


Quality Certifications

  • AS/NZS 1972


Installation and Maintenance

Suitable for installation in free air, ducts, and on mobile equipment. Regular inspection of screens and sheath integrity is recommended to ensure performance and safety during frequent re-deployment.


Customization Services

Available with bespoke core counts, pilot configurations, and cable lengths to suit specific operational requirements.
