    Covered conductor manufacturers

    I checked the links that Mudcat provided too. I didn't find anything above 15kV from southwire and I don't believe Hendrix cable will work for my application. We have been coordinating with them extensively on this project and have obtained lots data on their products. Their cables are...

    Covered conductor manufacturers

    Right, and that's why he have elected NOT to go with a spacer cable system (ie: Hendrix) as these structures would violate bare conductor clearance requirements. The idea is to design a "bare conductor line" strung with covered conductor in areas of increased tree growth. This line is going...

    Covered conductor manufacturers

    Hi, I'm looking for some manufacturers of aerial covered conductors. I'm designing a 69kV line in a narrow ROW with close proximity to trees. I want the added protection of a covered conductor to mitigate risks of flashover. I have heard that there are various places in the world that commonly...
