Blowing

Applied in tubes, ducts, trays, blocks, tunnels, collecting channels, with no risk of rodent attacks. Also applied for aerial installation between supports and buildings on external strength members or using the winding method.
Ducting

Applied in ducts, trays, blocks, tunnels, collecting channels, with a risk of rodent attacks.
Direct Buried

Applied in harsh environments with potential mechanical impact: in all ground types, swamps and harsh rivers.
Submarine

Applied in sea areas (coastal shelf and deep-sea), on navigable rivers, in lakes and water storage basins, in harsh environments, in bogs and unnavigable rivers.
Figure 8

Applied for aerial installations: on power lines, lamp posts, between buildings and constructions. Suitable for aerial installation on transmission equipment and power facilities in dielectric package.
Aerial

Applied for aerial installation on distribution and high voltage power lines, as well as railway catenary.
Indoor

Applied inside buildings (including vertical runs), in trays, channels, on outer sides of buildings, as well as in duct, in tubes and blocks. Suitable for blowing-in into protecting polyethylene tubes.
Drop

Applied for aerial installation on transmission towers, lamp posts, between buildings and constructions.
OPGW/Ground Wire

Applied in the construction of fiber-optic link on overhead transmission lines of 35 kV and more.
Fire Rated

Used for stationary installation when the optical fiber needs extra protection from mechanical damages.
Specialty Cable

For fiber optic monitoring systems.

Ground Wire

Application: installation on medium and high-voltage power lines to protect phase conductors from direct lightning strikes

1

Central strength member (Aluminum Clad Steel wire)

2

Stranded wires (Aluminum-clad steel wires and /or aluminum alloy wires)

3

Stranded wires (Aluminum-clad steel wires and /or aluminum alloy wires)

Aluminum-clad steel wires are corrosion resistant

Mandatory element of 35 kV power lines approaching electrical substations and of all 110 kV power line

Aluminum alloy wires shield the high-voltage conductors from lightning strikes
