Medium Voltage Covered Conductor (MVCC) is becoming as one of the best replacement of Over Head Bare Conductor (ACSR) and Aerial Bunched cable in power transmission and distribution system in some part of the world. The uses of Covered Conductor which is similar like SAC (Space Aerial Bunch Cables) are seen in South Korea, Japan, Iran, Myanmar and some parts of Australia. It has a very successful journey so far.
Covered Conductor is extensively used in voltage up gradation projects ranging between 6.6 KV to 66 KV.
Covered Conductors can function smoothly with conductor temperature up to 800 C and in corrosive and highly polluted area.
The outer jackets of covered conductors being UV resistant, it can be used in high UV radiation areas.
Covered Conductors fulfill the demands in extreme cold environment with heavy snow and ice load.
Better Safety - Since these conductors are covered there is no accidental contact with live wires avoiding incidents especially in urban areas.
Eco-friendly - MVCC puts lesser burden on local ecosystem than conventional conductors leading to better energy utilisation.
Maintenance - There is lesser chance of wear and tear of conductor due to insulation in comparison to bare conductors, this provide requires less maintenance.
Corrosion Free - Since these conductors are insulated the base metal is not exposed to moisture and sunlight, providing corrosion resistance.
Dense regions - Areas having dense vegetation, forest covers or wildlife face low power disruption if MVCC is used as electric faults are reduced.
Aesthetics - These covered conductors can be laid in a more pleasing manner than bare conductors and are more compact leading to better urban planning.
