Cable De Guarda OPGW

The optical ground wire cable, or OPGW, is a type of cable used by the electric utility industry in the construction of electric power transmission and distribution lines. OPGW fiber optic cable combines the functions of: 

The optical fiber cable OPGW combines the functions of
— grounding: the overhead ground wire shields the high-voltage conductors from lightning strikes and secures current flow in case of fault currents;
— communication: the incorporated optical fibers allow long distance transmission of data at high speed.

The fiber optic ground wire design typically consists of aluminum-clad steel wire and/or aluminum alloy wire protective layers with up to 432 fibers within the cable. This type of OPGW Cable is suspended on power transmission lines with the voltage of 35 kV and higher.
