It prevents the power cable from rubbing against the well casing walls, reducing the risk of insulation wear, abrasion damage, and eventual cable failure. The CG500 is a passive, mechanical protector that clamps or attaches to the drop pipe or cable during pump installation, holding the cable away from the casing. Electricians and well pump installers working on residential or light commercial water well systems rely on this type of component to extend cable service life and maintain code-compliant installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe CG500 is used in vertical submersible pump installations where the power cable runs alongside the drop pipe down the well bore. It is suited for residential potable water wells and similarly configured systems where cable abrasion against steel or PVC casing is a concern. The guard is installed at intervals along the drop pipe as the pump assembly is lowered into the well, providing consistent cable standoff throughout the column.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrevents submersible power cable abrasion against well casing sidewalls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlastic construction resists corrosion in wet, submerged well environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePassive mechanical design with no moving parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold in a package of 6 units per unit of measure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.73 pounds per package\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit accessory for residential submersible well pump cable installations requiring cable standoff and abrasion protection inside well casings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by licensed well pump contractors or electricians during pump drop pipe assembly. Power to the pump control box must be disconnected and verified de-energized before any work begins inside the well. Guards should be spaced at regular intervals along the drop pipe per the installer's standard practice as the assembly is lowered into the well bore. Consult local well construction codes and NEC requirements for submersible pump wiring before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.73 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 per package\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: EA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASHLAND WATER GROUP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: CG500\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ASHLAND","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51524862574898,"sku":"CG500","price":22.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d024f0d64fb87a583542f6f69d381b43.jpg?v=1785459921","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/ashland-water-group-cg500-plastic-cable-guard","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
