Wind turbines stand tall on the landscape both onshore and offshore, harnessing natural resources to generate renewable energy. The cables used in these installations must be specifically engineered to handle unique mechanical and environmental challenges. Unlike standard industrial cables, wind turbine cables must withstand continuous torsional stress caused by the rotation of the nacelle and rotor blades, which can apply twisting forces up to ±180° per meter over millions of cycles during the turbine's 20-25 year operational lifespan. Our comprehensive range includes power cables rated from 600V to 6kV for tower, nacelle, and rotor applications, as well as control and automation cables essential for safe operation and real-time monitoring of energy production systems.

Industrial cables are specialized electrical cables engineered for use in automation, manufacturing, and process control environments. Unlike standard installation cables designed for fixed wiring, industrial cables must withstand continuous movement, flexing, and mechanical stress while maintaining electrical integrity. According to VDE (Verband der Elektrotechnik) and CENELEC standards, these cables are classified by their flexibility class, temperature rating, and chemical resistance to ensure reliable performance in specific industrial applications.

KEMA approval is recognised as the key independent Dutch third-party accreditation for electrical cables, particularly important when working on low voltage installation projects in the Netherlands and across Europe. KEMA approvals are issued by KEMA Labs, based in Arnhem, The Netherlands. KEMA Labs' parent company is CESI (Centro Elettrotecnico Sperimentale Italiano), the Italian independent testing and laboratories business, having acquired the testing division from DNV GL Energy in 2019.

What is Cable Handling Systems for Moving Machinery?

Festoon systems support cables through a series of trolleys that ride along an overhead track, creating hanging loops that accommodate horizontal travel. This configuration is widely used for overhead cranes, bridge cranes, and conveyor systems where cable loops can move freely without obstruction.
