Successfully installed worldwide since 1982, SkyWrap® is a fiber optic cable helically applied on ground wires or phase conductors. A specially designed spinning machine is used to wrap the cable under controlled conditions. This system offers a complete communication link designed and engineered for high-voltage environments at low cost.
SkyWrap® is the ideal solution when access to the overhead line is problematic. The installation equipment is lightweight and easy to handle. And, with SkyWrap® there’s no need to de-energize the line. The cable can be wrapped on the ground wire under live-line conditions.
