SkyWrap or OPGW SkyWrap or OPGW or MASS SkyWrap or AccessWrap or TR-ADSS or MASS Difficult access to overhead line, low environmental disturbance requirement or high rollout speed required SkyWrap SkyWrap or AccessWrap No shield-wire, multi-bundle phase conductors, any pollution condition TR-ADSS or ADSS* (choice depends on electric field strength and levels of pollution) is the only possibility, but regular inspection and even washing may be required in polluted areas. Customer must expect short service life

23. 23 SkyWrap & Access Wrap

24. 24 SkyWrap …. its a proven solution Approved by major utilities in Europe, Asia and North America More than 25,000km installed since 1982 In service in 40+ countries world-wide

25. 25 Robust and Reliable UK - 2005 SkyWrap is not just for today 30 year design life In service >20yrs Maintenance free Lifetime support from AFL Meets IEEE1594 SkyWrap is a fully-proven, robust and reliable long-term solution

26. 26 Installation Topography ArcticSweden, Finland, Canada TropicalColombia, Vietnam, Venezuela DesertOman, UAE, Pakistan CoastalIceland, New Zealand, Ireland MountainsSwitzerland, Chile, Norway High windsHong Kong, Taiwan, Florida Urban pollution Los Angeles, Kuala Lumpur, China, Kenya SkyWrap is in service in challenging environments all over the world with outstanding results Norway - 2001

27. 27 AccessWrap AccessWrap is AFL wrap technology for broadband access or distribution networks Uses SkyWrap experience and technology to apply fibre optic cables to overhead lines Optimised for use on MV power distribution lines: 10kV to 50kV Post insulators Small conductors Wood poles Norway – 33kV Access Wrap

28. 28 Technology Choice Classic technology is ADSS – but many disadvantages –Reduces ground clearance –Imposes extra load on poles –Susceptible to vandalism, shotgun, fires and accidental third party damage –Only 1 ADSS per pole

29. 29 Benefits of AccessWrap AccessWrap adds small dielectric cable to distribution line –Does not infringe existing clearance –Does not significantly increase loads on poles –Secure – protected from vandals and accidents Buckshot resistant option –It uses 1 phase out of three Capacity can be added incrementally

30. 30 Comparison with SkyWrap AccessWrapSkyWrap Working Radius (min. distance between conductors) 500 mm1200 mm All up Weight 45 kg250 kg Distance between joints 1,000 m5,000 m Fibres per cable 1272

31. 31 Comparison with SkyWrap Smaller cable drum Shorter counterbalance arm Lightweight machine body Remote controlled tug not used Same technology –Smaller & lighter

32. 32 Summary Meets IEEE1594 Quick & Clean Cost-effective Low Risk Reliable & secure Solves difficult access problems Scaleable Complete package Lower environmental impact Significant advantages over other technologies
