Optical Ground Wire (OPGW) cables are advanced composite overhead conductors that combine the functions of a ground wire and optical fiber communication within a single integrated solution. Prysmian has a built-in multi-step quality assurance programme, which covers the entire production process from cable design and raw materials purchasing, to final inspecti tion for any single project. Application OPGW is mainly applied in communication line of newly constructed high voltage transmit electricity system with 35 KV or above, or replacement of existing ground wire of previous overhead high voltage transmit electricity system. Short summary: OPGW (Optical Ground Wire) is a revolutionary cable that combines the functions of a traditional ground wire for power lines with the high-capacity data transmission of a fiber optic cable. An OPGW cable contains a tubular structure with.
