Product Description

OPGW – Aluminum Tube Type Optical Ground Wire

Structure: Central Aluminum Tube | Armoring: Single or Double Layer (ACS/Aluminum Alloy)
Standards: IEC 60794-4-10, IEEE 1138, ITU-T G.652D

OPGW (Optical Ground Wire) with an aluminum tube design is a high-strength, multifunctional overhead cable used in power transmission lines to provide both ground fault protection and high-speed fiber optic communication. The central aluminum tube houses and protects the optical fibers with superior mechanical and corrosion resistance, while the outer layers—composed of aluminum-clad steel (ACS) or ACS mixed with aluminum alloy wires—deliver tensile strength and short-circuit current capacity.

This type of OPGW is widely used in long-span, high-voltage transmission networks and is engineered for exceptional durability, signal reliability, and integration with smart grid systems.

Specification

Applications

1. High-Voltage Transmission Lines (110 kV and above).
2. Grid Modernization: Upgrading existing ground wires with fiber optic capabilities for smart grid applications.
3. Renewable Energy Projects: Ensures reliable communication for wind and solar farms.
4. Harsh Environments: Ideal for coastal, high-wind, or icy regions due to its corrosion and fatigue resistance.
 
Key Features:

Central Aluminum Tube:
Protects optical fibers in a sealed, gel-filled aluminum tube offering excellent thermal, corrosion, and fatigue resistance.
High Mechanical Strength:
Armored with one or two layers of ACS or ACS/alloy wires to meet varying tensile and short-circuit current needs.
Corrosion Resistance:
Suitable for coastal, industrial, and high-humidity areas due to aluminum's superior anti-corrosion properties.
Fiber Integrity:
Maintains stable excess fiber length, even under high tension and electrical loading.
Dual Functionality:
Combines lightning protection and grounding with optical communication in one cable.
