    Delivering up to 2,000 volts in the harshest conditions, this Type W cable is often used in mining equipment and drilling rigs. It resists abrasion if you drag it across rocky terrain and won’t get crushed even when heavy equipment drives over it. The EPDM jacket stands up to chemicals, oil, and moisture. MSHA accepted, it meets mining safety standards, so you can rely on it where other power cables fail.
