Covered Conductors
Indian state utilities are striving hard to come out of the red and are now aggressively investing in upgrading and strengthening the medium voltage (MV) and low voltage (LV) distribution system.
At Raychem RPG, we have identified this need of profiling the electricity losses with each utility and taking a customised approach to reduce the same. Distribution losses are attributed to three major factors, technical, societal and commercial losses.
Raychem RPG has been instrumental in developing several innovative technologies to address the issues in the Indian distribution system to Reduce losses and Maximize Profits for Indian Distribution utilities.
In our yet another endeavour for the cause, Covered Conductors have been introduced for the first time in India by Raychem RPG for applications up to 132 kV in partnership with amokabel, a Scandinavian group company and leading producer of different types of covered conductors for varied applications.
Covered Conductors are longitudinally water blocked and covered with special grades of materials that provide insulation and ultra violet protection. These conductors provide safety against accidental contact and are a major help in significantly reducing outages.
Covered Conductors have been type tested up to 66kV in line with EN50397 at CPRI and also at International labs.
