Filling the gap:

The goal to supply accessories from 24 to 550 kV
550 kV

Supplying accessories from 24 to 245 kV since

many years
EHV levels demanded more and more by
international customers
Up to now, no independent cable accessories
supplier for EHV on the market
Due to extensive experience with HV
equipment, decision to develop EHV
accessories was taken

245 kV
