TUNNEL CABLES

TUNNEL CABLES

(N)TSCGEWöU FO(LWL)

Application

For the connection of electrical equipment large material handling machines such as excavators, cranes,

dumpers in mining and tunneling applications in combination of power and data transmission. The flexible cable

design allows for movement of the equipment during operation. Suitable also as flex MV reeling cable and also

for festoon systems.
