OPPC

Replace one or more wires in traditional conductor with stainless steel tube optical fiber unit, and make the stainless steel tube optical fiber unit and wires twist together to form OPPC. It is a special power optical cable with dual functions of overhead phase conductor and communication capability.

Characteristics:
  1.  Replace one phase in the three-phase power system with OPPC to form a transmission line composed of two conductors and one OPPC;
  2. The mechanical and electrical characteristics are matched with adjacent two-phase conductors;
  3. OPPC that has passed the temperature cycle test can withstand continuous high temperature;
  4. OPPC is suitable for medium and high voltage transmission lines without ground wires;
  5. It can be used for communication of medium and high voltage urban and rural power transmission lines, and provide optical cable channels for the construction of distribution network automation.
Standards:
