MCM 20000-60 – 400 Hz Aircraft GPU Cable – 260A, Single Jacket, Gold-X, No Pushbutton, Jumper, 60 ft

The MCM 20000-60 is a 400 Hz single-jacketed, multi-conductor aircraft GPU cable that offers significant advantages over cumbersome ground power cables made up of numerous single conductors banded together.

Built for longevity, the 260A aircraft cable features a hardened, repairable Gold-X nose cover and replaceable contact pins. This aircraft jumper cable has a no-pushbutton configuration and is 60 ft. in length.

The aircraft GPU power cable is designed to meet the electrical and environmental requirements of SAE AS5756 (former MIL-C-5756). The cable head meets SAE AS7974 (former MIL-C-7974) electrical and environmental requirements.

Features:

• Patented head design with individually replaceable power and control pins provides a more economical option for cable head repair.
• Geometric conductor design eliminates phase voltage unbalance and reduces voltage drop by 35% over banded cables, allowing added cable length while delivering the required kVA.
• Pressure-extruded, reinforced neoprene outer cable jacket is highly resistant to abrasion, petroleum products, and ozone/environmental deterioration.
• Superior dimensional stability results in long life and a low probability of damage.
• Molded cable head with conical strain relief helps prevent damage due to rough handling and repetitive flexing during insertion.
• Flexible and 25% lighter than banded cables for ease of handling.
• No metal tie bands that could cause electrical shorts or cut operators’ hands.
• Ideally suited for any 400 Hz application, especially with new-generation aircraft and all cable-handling equipment.
• Low-maintenance, low-inductance design
• Balanced, low-profile configuration

Specifications:

*Voltage drop and unbalance measured at 90 kVA on 60 ft. aircraft cable assembly at 0.8 power factor.
