LIGHTNING RESISTANT CENTRAL STAINLESS STEEL TUBE OPGW WITH COMPRESSED WIRES

APPLICATION

OPGW cables are used power transmission, communication, and lightning protection. It could replace traditional static / shield / earth wires on overhead transmission lines and add benefit of containing optical fibers which can be used for telecommunications purposes. It is suitable for high-voltage/ultra-high-voltage lines in intercity or cross-country projects that need both communication and grounding functions over long distances.

Lightning Resistant Central Stainless Steel Tube OPGW with Compressed Wires applies to heavy thunderstorm areas and the transmission line which requires small diameter and large fault current.

DESCRIPTION

The central stainless steel tube is surrounded by double layers of aluminium clad steel wires(ACS),the inner layer aluminium clad steel wires are compressed,the outer layer aluminium clad steel wires are all compressed or all round.

MAIN CHARACTERISTICS

●Compressing round AS wires into sector AS wires during stranding.
●Compared with round AS wires stranding, sector AS wires stranding can increase the cross section and fault current capacity while the cable diameter is the same.
●Compared with round AS wires stranding, sector AS wires stranding can dramatically increase the diameter of outer wires to enhance the lightning performance.
