Wind Turbine Cables17
Description

Product Overview

1.8/3kV Wind Turbine Cable is specifically engineered for demanding torsion applications within wind turbine systems. This specialized cable reliably transmits energy from the generator to the transformer, typically located at the tower base, while withstanding the constant mechanical stresses inherent in wind turbine operation.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Superior Torsion Resistance: Specifically designed to withstand ±15000 twist cycles at ±180°/m for free-hanging applications

  • Extended Temperature Range: Operates reliably from -40°C to +125°C in harsh environmental conditions

  • Enhanced Flexibility: Class 5 or 6 flexible tinned copper conductors ensure optimal performance in dynamic applications

  • Robust Construction: EPR insulation with HF XL EVA sheath provides excellent environmental protection

  • Optimized Bending Performance: Minimum bending radius of 6× cable diameter for easy installation

  • International Compliance: Manufactured according to IEC 60502 standards for guaranteed quality
