Background
In recent years, ac米兰中国官网 infrastructure investment in emerging Asian, African and Latin American countries has steadily increased, and there has been stable demand for OPGW.

SFPOC, a subsidiary of ac米兰中国官网, has been awarded a new contract for supply of 980km of OPGW and associated hardware/fittings for one of the largest 500kV power transmission line projects in Peru owned by Proyectos De Infraestructura Del Peru (PDI), an extension in Peru of ISA Colombia that links Mantaro and Montalvo. The OPGW cable was custom designed to withstand harsh topographical and environmental conditions along the route of the transmission line, such as extremely long span, high wind and corrosive atmosphere.
SFPOC has completed the supply of 1,100km OPGW for NALCOR Energy in Newfoundland, Canada, last year, and another large project of 1,000km for INTERCHILE is yet to come this year.
“It is a great pride and privilege for us to work with ISA Colombia on these great projects”, says Hiroyuki Otake, Director, Vice president of ac米兰中国官网. “We already have a strong base in Brazil in the form of Furukawa Industrial S.A. Produtos Electricos, a subsidiary of ac米兰中国官网 which caters to the southern part of Latin America. Winning this large contract proves ac米兰中国官网’s presence and strength in serving the OPGW needs of entire South America with unique engineering technology and high capabilities to deliver.”
(note 1)OPGW; Optical Ground Wire (OPGW):
OPGW is a product that embeds optical fiber inside the ground wire that is installed to protect the high-voltage overhead ac米兰中国官网 lines from lightning strike. In addition to being used in the ac米兰中国官网 line maintenance management system, which enables reliable, high-capacity transmissions, it has become part of the power system carriers' trunk line infrastructure.
