Application

Designed for advanced military aircraft ground power applications, including the F-35 platform, the GP 270 V DC cable delivers reliable 270 V DC power in demanding flight line environments. Its dual-jacket construction with a yellow outer jacket and red abrasion indicator provides a clear visual indication of wear to support maintenance planning and improve ground crew safety. Engineered for long service life, the halogen-free cable offers exceptional resistance to mechanical stress, chemicals, hydrolysis, and microbial attack while operating in temperatures from -50°C to +110°C. With low voltage drop and high dielectric strength, it provides dependable, low-maintenance performance for critical aircraft ground power systems.
