Description
Price pressure, necessary cost reductions, and new regulations are leading to different products and production methods for power cables. This paper gives an overview of standards in a competitive global market and modern manufacturing methods for bare overhead conductors (trapezoidal constructions), EHV- and HV- underground cables, and subsea cables. To keep up with today’s standards and tomorrow’s trends, wire manufacturing equipment needs to be innovative, efficient, reliable, and flexible to withstand the cost pressure and meet high technical and environmental standards.
