Proven Technology for DC
Silec Brand HV/EHV solid-dielectric extruded insulation technology has proven to be very suitable for HVDC cable systems. It is nearly maintenance free, easy to install and environment-friendly for long, high-power connections. For over two decades, General Cable has been in the field of HVDC extruded cable system technology and has already undertaken numerous type tests, both short term as well as long term. After having developed and qualified 270 kV cable systems based on Line Commutated Conversion (LCC) device during the 90’s, General Cable has continued research and development efforts and is now able to offer a complete ±320 kV extruded cable system.
