Application
This aluminium flexible cable is specially designed for Wind Turbines and dedicated for fixed installation inside the tower and for hard radius curves , it could be also used for some mobile installations with limitation in torsion angle and cycles.
The quality of materials used for core, insulation and sheathing make the cables both durable, and resistant to high temperatures. Nexans offers more than a decade of experience with wind energy.
Our expertise makes WINDLINK® cables highly recommended for wind turbines.
