T-(N)TSCGEWÖU TBM Shield Machine Crane Reeling and Trailing Rubber Cable

T-(N) TSCGEWÖU/(N)TSCGEWOEU is a standard medium‑voltage individually screened rubber reeling cable that complies with DIN VDE 0250‑813. It features a standard construction consisting of tinned copper conductor, conductor screen, EPR insulation, insulation screen, semi‑conducting rubber filler, rubber inner sheath and red PCP (CR) outer sheath, and this standard variant comes without Kevlar reinforcement.

(N) TSCGEWÖU cable is widely deployed for cable drum, crane, open‑pit mining (open cast) mining and TBM trailing power supply, which makes it well suited for markets across Europe, Africa and Southeast Asia. Customers from other regions who have project requirements for this cable are also welcome to send us enquiries.

As a reliable cable manufacturer, Taitong Cable supplies this VDE reeling and trailing cable with complete test certificates; all of our products undergo full routine and type tests. We support custom cross‑sections and sheath colours, and our in‑house R&D team guarantees you stable quality and short lead time. If you are sourcing medium voltage reeling cable, crane reeling cable, mining trailing cable or VDE rubber cable, tunnel boring machine (shield machine) cables, Taitong Cable is the trusted supplier you can count on in China.

Construction of T-(N) TSCGEWÖU reeling & trailing cables 

---

(N) stands for optional neutral core. The neutral conductor can be supplied or omitted, depending on the power distribution scheme of your project.

1, Tinned copper conductor — Flexible tinned copper, anti‑oxidation, for repeated bending

2, Conductor screen — Extruded semi‑conducting layer for uniform electric field

3, EPR insulation — EPR rubber, good electrical performance & flexibility

4, Insulation screen — Extruded semi‑conducting insulation screen

5, Semi‑conducting rubber filler — Semi‑conducting rubber to maintain round shape

6, Rubber inner sheath — Rubber inner sheath for core protection

7, PCP (CR) outer sheath — Red CR outer sheath, weather & oil resistant

Note:

Under DIN VDE 0250-813, T-(N) TSCGEWÖU is specified with chloroprene rubber (CR) outer sheath, which is relatively costly and suitable for orders of certain volume.

Taitong Cable’s in-house standard outer sheath is CPE (Chlorinated Polyethylene), a material widely used by most domestic manufacturers. It features excellent weather resistance, oil resistance, ozone resistance and flame retardancy.

If the project strictly requires CR sheath, we will quote based on CR material. If CPE outer sheath is acceptable, you can get a more cost‑competitive offer.
