REELTEC (K) NSHTU-JB 4G350, 0.6/1 KV, REELING CABLE — four-core 350 mm² reeling-cable engineering guide
The corrected procurement string identifies a REELTEC (K) NSHTU-JB 4G350, 0.6/1 kV cable for reeling service. The notation 4G350 is normally read as four cores of 350 mm² with a protective-conductor designation, but the released core schedule must confirm that interpretation. The corrected voltage is reproduced as 0.6/1 KV, consistent with the public low-voltage NSHTÖU family context. The exact 4G350 construction, dimensions, ratings and dynamic limits remain project-specific release items.

1. Engineering position: the corrected 0.6/1 kV rating sets the product boundary
0.6/1 kV, matching the low-voltage notation used in public NSHTÖU family context. The remaining engineering task is to release the exact 4G350 construction, conductor/core schedule, test basis, accessories, current rating and dynamic limits for the actual machine.Use 0.6/1 kV as the working rated voltage, then coordinate insulation, voltage test, current, short-circuit duty and terminations against the project system.
Four nominal 350 mm² cores create a very large, heavy moving assembly. The final cable mass, drum torque, guide pressure and end restraint must be calculated rather than scaled from a smaller row.
The letter G normally indicates a protective conductor in common European nomenclature. The exact 4G350 core marking, conductor purpose and terminal arrangement must be confirmed.
Reeling performance depends on strand design, short lay, inner sheath, reinforcement, outer rubber, guide geometry, acceleration and torsion—not on the 350 mm² number alone.
2. How to read the raw designation
| Raw field | Engineering reading | Quotation consequence | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| REELTEC (K) | Product-family / series wording supplied by the buyer; public TKD material uses REELTEC® (K) NSHTÖU family spelling with an umlaut. | Retain the buyer spelling, but confirm the manufacturer, current catalogue revision and exact model code. | User-supplied / public family context |
| NSHTU-JB | Buyer spelling of an NSHTÖU-JB-style reeling-cable designation; public family pages show related J and JB nomenclature. | Do not change JB to J, or J to JB, without the controlled datasheet and core-identification schedule. | User-supplied / suffix boundary |
| 4G350 | Normally read as four cores, each nominally 350 mm², with G indicating a protective conductor. | Confirm whether all four cores are 350 mm² and whether the fourth core is PE, neutral, or another project function. | Normalised interpretation |
| 0.6/1 KV | Corrected voltage notation supplied by the buyer. | Use 0.6/1 kV as the working rating and confirm the project U₀/U, Uₘ, standard and accessory interface in the technical submittal. | Corrected by buyer |
| REELING CABLE | Cable intended for repeated winding/unwinding and guided dynamic movement. | Release reel type, travel, speed, acceleration, torsion, radius, guide and termination conditions. | User-supplied application |
0.6/1 KV. The remaining electrical work is confirmation of the system interface, Uₘ, applicable product standard, test voltage and accessories.3. Voltage and interface validation
| Question | Why it matters | Required evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Is 0.6/1 kV correctly mapped to the project system? | The corrected product rating must align with the system nominal voltage, earthing arrangement and equipment interface. | System single-line diagram, project voltage schedule and purchaser confirmation. |
| Which Uₘ, standard and test level apply? | Rated voltage, maximum system voltage, routine test and accessory design must be consistent. | Product standard, AC test voltage, insulation resistance and type/routine test report. |
| Which routine and type tests are required? | The corrected voltage alone does not establish the complete product evidence package. | Routine test schedule, type-test plan, insulation resistance and agreed inspection dossier. |
| What protection and termination apply? | The fourth core and voltage class affect PE, neutral, screen, gland, lug and protection arrangements. | Termination drawing, protection study and approved accessory list. |
Voltage corrected by purchaser: 0.6/1 kV. Please confirm the project Uₘ, applicable product standard, test level and accessory interface before final construction release.Do not assign an insulation thickness, test certificate or accessory class from a family spelling alone.
Voltage affects terminations, clearances, test methods, field conditions and the documentation a port or mining project will request.
Use both the corrected procurement string and the public NSHTÖU family spelling when building the technical submittal, while keeping the exact buyer identity unchanged.
Figure 1 — Corrected voltage path. The 0.6/1 kV rating is fixed; the remaining checks concern the project interface and exact 4G350 construction.
4. Public family evidence
| Reference | What it supports | How it is used | Boundary |
|---|---|---|---|
| TKD REELTEC® (K) NSHTÖU catalog | TKD public 2021 catalogue identifies REELTEC® (K) NSHTÖU family nomenclature and gives public rows for 4G sizes through 4G185, including OD, copper index and weight. | Confirms the family context and provides a clearly labelled 4G185 comparator. | No exact 4G350 row; no target value is extrapolated. |
| public NSHTÖU family technical page | A public NSHTÖU family page describes reeling use with tensile/torsional stress, flexible stranded copper, rubber insulation/sheaths and 600/1000 V family rating. | Explains the general engineering logic of an NSHTÖU-style reeling cable. | Family-level reference from another manufacturer; not proof of REELTEC (K) NSHTU-JB 4G350 conformity. |
| IEC 60228 | Conductor nominal area, resistance and flexible conductor class framework. | Use when releasing the 350 mm² conductor design and resistance limits. | The standard does not prove the target conductor class or rating. |
| IEC 60332-1-2 | Single-cable vertical flame-propagation test-method context. | Use only when the project asks for this test and the ordered construction is tested. | It is not a CPR class or a complete grouped-cable fire declaration. |
The public family is useful for nomenclature and engineering logic. It is not a substitute for the missing 4G350 manufacturer row. The correct Feichun quotation must release the exact target drawing.
5. Reference cross-section and load path
Figure 2 — Schematic 4G350 architecture. The fourth core is labelled “PE?” because the supplied G notation suggests a protective-conductor question that must be resolved in the core schedule.
| Functional layer | Public family context | 4G350 release requirement | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Four flexible conductors | Public family sources describe flexible stranded copper; the buyer specifies 4G350. | Strand class, copper condition, nominal resistance, conductor diameter and core-purpose schedule. | Family context + buyer size |
| Insulation | Public NSHTÖU family information describes rubber/elastomer insulation. | Exact compound, thickness, voltage class, temperature, insulation resistance and test voltage. | Family context; target TBC |
| Core lay / filler | A reeling family generally needs controlled lay and support geometry. | Lay length, filler, separator, pressure control and manufacturing drawing. | Engineering requirement |
| Inner sheath | Public family descriptions include an inner rubber/sheath support system. | Compound, thickness, adhesion, environmental properties and dynamic interaction. | Family context; target TBC |
| Anti-torsion reinforcement | Public NSHTÖU family information describes textile-braided reinforcement. | Material, coverage, tensile role, torsion limit and end-grip method. | Family context; target TBC |
| Outer sheath | Public family information describes a special black rubber outer sheath. | Exact compound, wall thickness, abrasion/oil/UV/ozone/fire evidence and marking. | Family context; target TBC |
In common European nomenclature, G generally indicates a protective conductor. The actual conductor colour, cross-section, termination and circuit role still require confirmation.
A textile braid shares mechanical stress but is not a metallic earth or armour path unless the design explicitly says so.
The final cable must be checked for handling, reel torque, guide opening, bending stress and end restraint, not only current capacity.
The corrected 0.6/1 kV rating must be carried consistently into insulation, test evidence, terminations and accessories.
6. 4G185 comparator boundary — useful evidence, not the 4G350 target
| Public family comparator | Published 4G185 value | Why it is shown | Why it cannot be used for 4G350 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Outer diameter | 67.4–75.0 mm | Demonstrates that the family publishes a finished OD range rather than a single nominal diameter. | Lay, insulation, sheath, braid and 350 mm² conductor geometry do not scale linearly. |
| Copper index | 7,105 kg/km | Shows how catalogue material indices are reported. | 4G350 has a different conductor area, strand design and likely construction; no target copper index is supplied. |
| Cable weight | 11,150 kg/km | Shows the magnitude of family mass at a smaller public size. | Do not use it for reel torque, shipping or support calculations for 4G350. |
| Item / row | 4G185 public row | Provides a traceable family comparator from the TKD catalogue. | The exact 4G350 item number and row are not publicly verified here. |
7. Exact target data matrix

8. Electrical and thermal design
Use the corrected 0.6/1 kV rating consistently, then confirm Uₘ, test voltage, clearances, terminations and compliance documents.
Four large cores may carry a high current, but the permissible value depends on the actual conductor, ambient, grouping, reel layers, air movement, duty cycle and terminal temperature.
Confirm whether the G core is PE, how screens are bonded and how the protective device clears a fault. Do not treat the textile braid as the protective path.
Layered cable can dissipate heat differently from an open-surface installation. A fixed-table current value must not be copied into a reel calculation.
9. Reeling mechanics
Figure 3 — Mechanical release gates for 4G350. The drawing intentionally contains no invented radius, speed, mass or tension value.
| Mechanical input | Failure mechanism if ignored | RFQ question |
|---|---|---|
| Drum barrel / flange | Layer build-up changes bend radius, torque, contact pressure and thermal dissipation. | Provide barrel diameter, flange diameter, cable length, layer count and winding direction. |
| Guide / fleet angle | Edge loading, folding, crossover or forced torsion can damage the sheath and cores. | Provide roller width, radius, spacing, offset, edge protection and alignment tolerance. |

| Torsion | Twist can accumulate in the cable and transfer into the core lay or braid. | State allowable torsion and how the machine controls twist. |
| End restraint | Large cable mass can pull through a gland or termination if the support system is undersized. | Provide clamp/grip length, support method, bend exit and terminal-entry geometry. |
| Environment | Oil, water, salt, dust, UV, ozone and temperature change sheath friction and service life. | Provide chemical list, ambient range, exposure and cleaning method. |
10. Application scenes
Figure 4 — Typical heavy-equipment contexts for evaluating a 4G350 reeling cable. The illustration is not a product approval.
Check high starting current, reel torque, salt mist, UV, guide alignment, emergency braking and cable support at the moving machinery.
Verify impact, abrasion, water, oil, dust, earthing, fire requirements and whether a dedicated mining trailing-cable standard is required.
Check continuous travel, repeated reversals, slope, guide rollers, winding direction and thermal duty under full load.
Ensure the large cable enters the moving path without edge folding, reverse twist or excessive local bend at the termination.
11. Installation and FMEA controls
| Observed problem | Likely mechanism | Preventive control |
|---|---|---|
| Voltage / interface mismatch | The corrected 0.6/1 kV rating is not carried consistently into the system interface, test basis or accessories. | Record U₀/U, Uₘ, standard, test level and accessory selection in the approved submittal. |
| Sheath split / abrasion | Sharp guide, edge loading, wrong compound, radius below limit or layer crossover. | Verify guide surfaces, compound, radius, winding and inspection method. |
| Conductor fatigue | Conductor class or lay unsuitable for repeated bending, torsion or short unsupported exit. | Release flexible conductor design, bend path and end restraint; qualify the dynamic duty. |
| PE continuity loss | Fourth core damaged, incorrectly identified or poorly terminated. | Confirm G/core schedule and test continuity/resistance before and after installation. |
| Overtemperature | Current copied from a smaller/fixed cable row or reel-layer heat trapped. | Run the installed thermal study and record current and temperature during commissioning. |
| Cable twist lock | Off-axis payout, unequal layers, reverse torsion or poor guide alignment. | Control winding direction, fleet angle, guides and transition support. |
| Termination pull-out | Large cable mass and acceleration transferred through cores instead of a designed grip. | Use a rated clamp/support and preserve the released bend exit. |
