IllustrationOverview
MVCC Cables & Accessories from Fortune Fittings Private Limited
IllustrationA medium voltage covered conductor (MVCC) is an overhead line conductor wrapped in insulating layers. If a branch, a bird or a neighbouring conductor touches it, the line keeps running instead of tripping, which makes it the usual choice for forested routes, coastal areas and crowded urban streets.
The conductor is an aluminium alloy (AAAC, ACSR or AAAC-ACS), water-blocked along its length, then covered in a semiconducting screen, XLPE insulation and a UV-resistant, anti-tracking outer layer applied together in one process.
Because covered lines can run closer together, they need a narrower corridor than bare lines. We supply the matching accessories with the conductor, so the line arrives as one package.
Construction
- Conductor
- Stranded aluminium alloy, longitudinally water-blocked
- Conductor screen
- Extruded semiconducting layer
- Insulation
- XLPE
- Outer covering
- UV-resistant, anti-tracking XLPE or HDPE, triple-extruded
Applications
- 11 kV and 33 kV distribution lines
- Forest, hill and coastal routes
- Congested urban streets and narrow corridors
- Replacing bare conductor on fault-prone feeders
