Product Description

Name: OPWG Fiber Optical Cable 

 

Introduction

This is a smart use of the widespread grid of ground wires for the transmission of data.

For this purpose, for more than 20 years, the TSO (Transmission System Operators) are gradually replacing all the galvanized steel and ACS (Aluminium Clad Steel) ground wires with OPGW (Optical Ground Wire) that, through the insertion of numerous optical fibres, allows a capillary and fast data transmission.

This innovative approach harnesses the extensive grid of ground wires not only for electricity transmission but also for data communication, marking a significant advancement in grid technology. Over the past two decades, Transmission System Operators (TSOs) have been gradually replacing traditional galvanized steel and Aluminium Clad Steel (ACS) ground wires with Optical Ground Wire (OPGW) solutions. Unlike conventional ground wires, OPGW integrates multiple optical fibers, enabling seamless and rapid transmission of data across the grid infrastructure.

Moreover, the deployment of OPGW fosters greater resilience and adaptability within the grid ecosystem. The robust construction of OPGW ensures reliable data transmission even in harsh environmental conditions, such as extreme temperatures, high winds, and corrosive environments. This resilience is essential for maintaining continuous communication and situational awareness, particularly during adverse weather events or unforeseen emergencies.

Engineering

The design of these ground wires is various and not standardized and it contains an optical core in the center, or in the layers, or multiple, etc.
The optical cores can be composed of Inox St or Al or Inox-Al tubes and contain dozens of optical fibres, typically in multiples of 24 units (24, 48, 96, etc.).
De Angeli Prodotti is able to produce OPGW in all its conformations.

Advantages

The advantage of this particular ground wire is in the combination of two features: protection of the overhead power line  from the lightning and the establishment of an extensive infrastructure network for the data transmission.

 

Structure
The Optical Ground Wire (OPGW) cable is a state-of-the-art solution designed to serve dual purposes of grounding and communication for high-voltage transmission lines. An OPGW cable combines the functionalities of a traditional ground wire with the capabilities of fiber optic communication, making it an essential component in modern power grid infrastructure.

  How OPGW Facilitates the High-Speed Data Communication? 

  While in-line with single-mode fibers, OPGW permits: 

  Transmission of any data in real-time along a great distance with close to zero distortion. 

  Support for SCADA systems, teleprotection, and remote grid monitoring. 

  Communication in a secured manner which is shielded against electromagnetic interference or extreme weather.

  What are the Key Prospective of Using OPGW?

• Dual Functionality 

  Integrates grounding and fibre optic communication into the more cost-effective and space-efficient cable. 

• Installation Efficiency 

  Fits directly onto existing towers with minimal structural changes. Live-line installation may also be done. 

• Highly durable and safe 

  Untroubled with electric, lightning-insertion, and exterior physical destruction. 

  The temperature stability range is from -40C to 85C, compatible with extreme environment. 

• Smart Grid Ready 

  Enables the transport of data and information in advanced grids, including smart systems. 

• Revenue generating prospects 

  Allowing dark fibers space gives utility owners incentives for making additional sum of money.
