Nexans has secured a two-year global supply contract with Vestas Wind Systems to provide around one million Windlink cable kits for turbines destined for onshore wind farms in Europe, the US, China and Brazil.
The low voltage (LV) and medium voltage (MV) cable kits will be installed inside Vestas onshore wind turbines rated at 2, 3 and 4MW. They will provide pre-connected, pre-tested connections for power, control and communication functions within the nacelle, tower and control panels. The cables feature rubber, thermoplastic or silicone insulation. The company will use completely lead-free materials in the construction of MV cables.
