JIS C 3327 designation system is elegant in its logic. Every cable name follows a predictable, parseable structure where each character or character group carries a specific, unambiguous meaning. Once you understand the five material symbols and the four flexibility classes, you can decode any of the 15 cable types defined by the standard—and immediately know what the cable is made of, how flexible it is, and what applications it is suited for.

JIS C 3327 Cable Code Designation

JIS C 3327 designation system is elegant in its logic. Every cable name follows a predictable, parseable structure where each character or character group carries a specific, unambiguous meaning. Once you understand the five material symbols and the four flexibility classes, you can decode any of the 15 cable types defined by the standard—and immediately know what the cable is made of, how flexible it is, and what applications it is suited for.

600V 2TC Light-SB (600V 2PNCT-SB) cable solves this problem. Built on the same proven JIS C 3327 platform as the unshielded 2TC Light, it adds a critical engineering layer: a tinned copper wire braided combined with cotton yarn shielding that surrounds the insulated conductor bundle. This hybrid metallic/textile braid provides effective EMI containment across the full VFD emission spectrum, preventing radiated noise from escaping power cables and protecting control cables from external interference. Combined with the Kevlar® para-aramid fibre braided tensile reinforcement for mechanical load bearing, the 2TC Light-SB delivers both electromagnetic cleanliness and structural durability in a single cable design purpose-built for the electrical and mechanical demands of modern VFD-controlled port cranes.

The 600V 2TC Light (600V 2PNCT) cable, manufactured to the Japanese Industrial Standard JIS C 3327, represents one of the most proven and widely deployed cable designs for port crane and ship unloader applications worldwide. This cable combines ethylene propylene (EP) rubber insulation for superior dielectric performance, polychloroprene rubber sheathing for environmental protection, and—critically—a Kevlar® para-aramid fibre braided tensile reinforcement layer that transforms the cable from a simple electrical conductor into a load-bearing mechanical component capable of supporting its own weight and absorbing the extreme dynamic forces generated by crane operation.
