FIXED CONNECTIONS
Stationary equipment wiring
Supply power or control requirements and mark the protected route between the equipment and its terminals.
Typical application
APPLICATION / Cement equipment
Silicone Cable for
Cement Plant Equipment
Equipment wiring in cement plants.
YGG silicone-sheathed cable has tinned-copper conductors and listed sizes from 2 × 0.14 mm² to 5 × 10 mm². Its fixed-installation temperature rating is −60 °C (−76°F) to +180 °C (356°F) continuous, with +200 °C (392°F) short-term exposure.
AT A GLANCE
Cement plant wiring at a glance
Each cement-equipment connection and the silicone cable we start from.
| Connection | Cable construction | Key point |
|---|---|---|
| Stationary equipment wiring | YGG silicone-sheathed cable | Fixed installation; −60 °C (−76°F) to +180 °C (356°F) continuous |
| Heat-exposed connections | YGG silicone-sheathed cable | Up to +200 °C (392°F) short-term; rating confirmed with your quotation |
| Material-handling movement | Separate motion specification | YGG allows occasional movement only, without pulling force |
CONNECTION TASKS
Cement plant equipment wiring
YGG carries equipment power, control and connection circuits in cement plants. Moving carriers and plant distribution circuits need their own cable specification.
THERMAL REVIEW
Heat-exposed connections
Describe the temperature at the cable position, exposure duration and ventilation. Define mechanical protection separately.
Confirmed with your quotation
DYNAMIC DUTY
Material-handling movement
State travel, bending and repetitive loading for a moving route. YGG is designed for occasional movement only, so a moving route is reviewed separately.
Separate motion specification
SELECTION CHECKS
Operating conditions to specify
Include these conditions with your enquiry so we can select the right cable.
Heat at the cable
The installed environment at the cable position, not the kiln or process rating, sets the temperature requirement.
Dust & mechanical protection
Exposed routes, supports and protection against impact or abrasion decide the protection the cable needs.
Circuit & motion
Fixed equipment, moving machinery and site-distribution connections are specified separately.

APPLICATION LIMITS
Cement plant wiring by cable function
Equipment wiring, moving-machine connections and plant distribution use separate cable specifications.
- Equipment power/control
- Match the YGG construction and ratings to a specified fixed connection.
- Moving handling equipment
- Provide the travel profile and cable-system validation requirements.
- Plant distribution
- Use a separate specification for external runs or other distribution duties.

BEFORE YOU SPECIFY
Frequently asked questions
Does a silicone sheath protect against abrasion and dust?
A silicone sheath alone does not establish abrasion or dust-protection performance. The cable route also needs suitable mechanical protection.
Can YGG be used for continuous carrier motion?
Not as standard. YGG is designed for fixed installation and occasional movement without pulling force. Continuous motion needs a construction tested for that duty.
Which YGG cable sizes are listed?
YGG is listed from 2 × 0.14 mm² to 5 × 10 mm², with up to 20 cores and outside diameters from 4.1 mm to 19.3 mm. Other core counts, sizes and colours are made to order.
