Mining
Underground. Surface. Every Operation.
Type 209, 210, 240, 241SF, 245SF and 275 mining cables — machine, feeder, and trailing cables, EPR and EPDM insulated — for underground and surface mining operations across Australia.
Industry Snapshot
What Mining Operations Demand
Mining cable applications involve some of the most demanding cable performance requirements of any industry — continuous mechanical stress, chemical exposure, high voltage, and strict safety standards that protect underground workers and surface operations alike.
Trailing cables for continuous shearer and shuttle car operation undergo thousands of flex cycles under load — Type 209, 210, and 240 cables are engineered specifically for this continuous trailing duty.
Type 241SF, 245SF, and 275 cables for fixed and semi-flexible machine connections and feeder circuits — supplying high-current loads in underground development and production headings.
Ethylene Propylene Rubber (EPR) and Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM) insulated cables for mining environments — providing superior electrical performance and flexibility at operating temperatures.
All cables supplied to AS/NZS 1802, AS/NZS 2802, and AS/NZS 1747-2022 — the specific Australian and New Zealand standards mandated for mining cable use in coal and metalliferous mines.
Product Scope
Mining Cables — Full Type Range
Supplied through the Australasian Cables brand — the complete Australian mining cable type range for underground and surface operations, all meeting AS/NZS mining cable standards.
Standards Compliance
Certified. Compliant. Mine-Ready.
All EESA mining cables are tested and certified to the mandatory Australian mining cable standards — the specific standards mandated by state mining regulators for use in Australian coal and metalliferous mines.
The mandatory Australian and New Zealand standard for flexible electric cables used in underground coal mining — covering trailing cables (Types 209, 210, 240) and machine cables used with coal mine equipment.
The mandatory Australian and New Zealand standard for flexible electric cables used in underground metalliferous mining — covering trailing and machine cables for hard rock mining environments.
The 2022 edition of the Australian and New Zealand standard for reeling and trailing cables used in mining and quarrying — covering cable construction, test methods, and performance requirements for mobile equipment trailing duty.
