Advantages of OPGW:

  • provides two functions at the same time: protect the power lines from lightning overvoltage and for construction of optical communication systems;
  • high reliability and corrosion resistance of OPGW, extended service life due to the use of modern materials, such as aluminum clad steel wire, which is more resistant to oxidation than galvanized;
  • higher permissible mechanical loads during installation and operation;
  • OKGT-c with central aluminum clad steel optical tube recommended for use in areas with increased corrosive activity.
