OVERVIEW

Linking sustainable ideas to real-word results

To meet an ever-growing need for power, the world is increasingly turning to renewable and sustainably-sourced energy.
In response to this demand, Prysmian’s cables are helping wind turbine manufacturers around the globe to harness the true potential of this natural power source.

Our customers

Our cables – used in wind turbine and tower operations – are hard at work across the renewables sector, supporting the work of turbine manufacturers, contractor and developers. 
We provide a range of cables, accessories and services for all wind power generation applications – from the generator, to the grid. Applying our many years of expertise and global capabilities, Prysmian offers one of the world's most proven and comprehensive product ranges for wind power generators.

Pushing the possibilities of wind power

Always aware of our responsibility to the planet, we're constantly aiming to help renewable industry partners by delivering cables that benefit the future of both our world and their businesses.
And so, reflecting this commitment to sustainability, we offer premium quality products for wind turbines, proven in the field with long-lasting and trouble-free attributes.

Inside Wind Turbines

For voltage classes of power from 6 kV up to 55 kV - we offer single and four core Medium Voltage flexible cables. They are optimised for torsion twist in the tower down to -40 C.
For the connection from the generator to the transformer down the tower. Fully optimised for twisting at high and low temperatures in accordance to various standards.
Copper and FO data cables for use in fixed and flexible installations. Designed for data transmisson in low and high temperatures in accordance to various standards.
Prysmian Group is specialized in the design, manufacture and delivery of customized cable sets with various terminations. Including low and medium voltage cables, data cables as well as fibre optic cables.
Different applications require different designs. For special application like EMC or hot oil we have specially designed cables.
We have a comprehensive and specialized program of pre-fabricated cable kits, customized solutions and accessories, for within or between towers, and grid connection.

All products within the Click-Fit® range  (including outdoor terminations, joints, Y (branch) joints and GIS/Transformer connectors) are based on the "Click-Fit®Plug&Power” concept for high voltage extruded cable accessories that enables optimum ease and speed of assembly, maximum reliability and maintenance-free operation, by ways of factory prepared (identical) cable ends.
To minimize offshore installation times, cable ends can be prepared onshore and then installed and clamped inside the offshore turbine.

PD measurements are effectively used to predict and prevent faults on medium- and high-voltage electrical systems and components, such as transformers, generators, cables, joints, etc.  Thanks to Prysmian’s exclusive sensing technology, the system is easy to install – even during wind turbine operation – without service interruption.
