Projects
The main materials for the manufacturing of cable products are copper and aluminium.
The updating of the GOST 'Uninsulated wires for power transmission lines' will improve the reliability of domestic power systems and increase their throughput capacity.
Cables made from 8xxx series innovative aluminium alloys are lighter, more flexible and cheaper than copper ones. Using them in construction can force counterfeit cables out of the market, which is life threatening to consumer health.
The Cable Safety’ project is a public initiative carried out by the Aluminium Association in partnership with NP International Association ‘Elektrokabel’ and Association ‘Honest Position’, aimed at reducing levels of falsified and counterfeit cable and wire products in the Russian electrotechnical market.
The expansion of domestic production of TSL transformers and aluminium tape for alloy windings can replace imports into Russia of aluminium tape for transformers by 50%
With the rise in copper prices, aluminium is becoming the optimal material for production of windings for power transformers.
