Portable Power Cable · 2000V Type G-GC 1/0 AWG 3 Conductor Round · Ground Check 1/0/3GGC
Type G-GC 2000V portable power cable for temporary power, mining, pumps, drills, loaders, conveyors, and other mobile equipment. This 1/0 AWG 3-conductor round cable Includes an extra monitoring wire that continuously checks if the grounding circuit is intact. If the ground path fails, equipment can automatically shut down for safety. This is common in mining and heavy industrial applications.
Sold Per Meter-Cut to length.
What this product is for
This Type G-GC portable power cable is used for heavy-duty temporary or portable power distribution where flex life, grounding, and ground check monitoring are required. It is suited to construction, mining, industrial, and mobile equipment applications up to 2000V.
Use for
Use for portable electrical equipment, pumps, drills, cutters, loaders, conveyors, and similar mobile power applications. It is also suitable where a self-contained grounding conductor and continuous ground monitoring conductor are specified.
Avoid for
Avoid using this cable where a standard building wire, tray cable, or fixed installation cable is required by design or code. Confirm suitability before using in permanent installations or where project specifications call for a different cable construction.
Best for
Best for contractors and industrial users needing a flexible 2 kV portable cable with integrated grounds and a ground check conductor for added safety in demanding jobsite conditions.
Installed in
Commonly installed on construction sites, industrial facilities, mining equipment, temporary power setups, and outdoor mobile equipment. Typical applications include rough service environments with abrasion, weather, oil, grease, and flexing exposure.
Why this product exists
Type G-GC cable exists to supply portable power in applications where standard flexible cable is not enough. The added ground check conductor helps support continuous ground monitoring, which is commonly required on mining and other mobile equipment for added safety.
Compared with similar products
Compared with Type G cable, Type G-GC adds a ground check conductor. Compared with fixed power cable, this construction is designed for flexing service and mechanical abuse. As typical guidance, larger 1/0 AWG portable power cable is commonly selected where higher current capacity and lower voltage drop are needed over longer runs, but actual performance depends on installation conditions, ambient temperature, run length, and local electrical code.
