Safety comes, in any industry, first and foremost. So it is hardly
surprising that Washington DC’s Metrorail was temporarily shut
down for an emergency inspection following a tunnel fire in March.
An average of 700,000 trips a day are made on the system, which
celebrated its 40th birthday on 27th March. A total of 600 jumper
cables were inspected throughout the system, with repair crews
replacing the aged cables with newer copper cables with better
insulation. The full story can be found on page 11 in this issue of
wiredInUSA.
Another milestone has also been marked with cable assembly
manufacturer Cicoil celebrating 60 years in the business.
Established in 1956 as a provider of multi-conductor cables to the
mainframe computer industry, the company was the originator
of the flexible flat or ribbon cable. Read more about the history
on page 13.
WireCo World Group is selling its wire rope manufacturing plant
in St Joseph to Hillyard Industries, for development of a new
manufacturing and national distribution center. Sadly, this comes
with the news that 49 employees will lose their jobs, although the
company is providing transition help. Turn to page 15 for the full
story.

MAKING
THE NEWS
New Jersey line
Jersey Central Power & Light (JCP&L) has
begun construction on a new substation
project in New Jersey to improve service
reliability for over 180,000 customers in
Monmouth county.
Work is underway on the new substation project
The project includes building a 230kV
steel pole construction transmission line,
along 16 miles of existing right-of-way, to
connect JCP&L substations in Howell and
Neptune. In addition, an existing 230kV
transmission line connecting substations
in Colts Neck and Neptune will be rebuilt
using steel poles to replace the current
wooden structures.
The overall cost of the project is $124
million, with around $97 million to be
spent in 2016.
“This transmission project will make our
system in Monmouth county more resilient
and help meet the growing demand
for electricity in the region,” said Jim
Fakult, president of JCP&L. “Along with
the greater redundancies provided by
the new transmission line, the high-tech
substation devices we plan to install will
give us the ability to operate the system
remotely, automatically resetting the
equipment instead of having to send a
line crew to investigate the cause of the
problem.”
The new transmission line is expected to
be completed and in-service by June
2017.

Putting safety
first
Following a tunnel fire on 16th March,
Washington DC’s Metrorail was temporarily
shut down for an emergency inspection
of the entire system’s third-rail power
cables. An average 700,000 trips per
day are made on the Metro system, and
closure displaced hundreds of thousands
of commuters with little advance notice.
“While the risk to the public is very low, I
cannot rule out a potential life safety issue
here, and that is why we must take this
action immediately,” said Metro general
manager Paul J Wiedefeld in a WMATA
press release.
“When I say safety is our highest priority,
I mean it. That sometimes means making
tough, unpopular decisions, and this is
one of those times. I fully recognize the
hardship this will cause.”
WMATA inspected approximately 600
jumper cables throughout the system.
According to the Washington Post, repair
crews replaced the aged cables with
newer copper cables with better insulation.
According to WMATA, 22 inspection crews
set out to accomplish the work, and the
authority had four repair crews on standby
to address any issues that the inspection
crews discovered.
The Metrorail system was 40 years old on
27th March, but has faced controversy
and scrutiny in recent years over budget
shortfalls and insufficient funding, leading
to a declining ability to maintain the
system. Consequently, it has fallen into
disrepair, which many officials have cited
as the cause of public safety concerns.

Cable assembly manufacturer Cicoil
is celebrating 60 years in the business.
Established in 1956 as a provider of
multi-conductor cables to the mainframe
computer industry, the company was
the originator of the flexible flat or ribbon
cable.
The silicone rubber flat ribbon cable
allowed companies such as IBM, Sperry/
Univac and NCR to replace bulky, stiff
round cables with sleek, flexible ribbon
cables.
In the 1960s Cicoil’s ribbon cables were
part of America’s space program,
including the first Earth orbit, first space
walk in 1965, and the lunar landing in
1969. The cables have since performed
on every US fighter jet, most commercial
60 years of
high flying
airplanes, and many demanding missile
and land-based applications.
To meet the needs of an increasingly
diverse customer base, in 1998 Cicoil
developed a new extrusion process that
allows it to manufacture continuous
lengths of flat cable from a crystal clear
material named Flexx-Sil™.
Howard Lind, Cicoil president and CEO,
commented: “Cicoil’s proud history
includes many innovations, including
inventing the ribbon cable, and helping
to put a man on the moon. Our spirit of
exploration and innovation continues
today, with new technologies like
EZ-Flexx flat cables, and patented cables
that include power, data, liquids and
pneumatics, all in a compact package.”

Rebar price
hikes
In mid-March, several US mills officially
announced price increases for rebar
products, but market sources were
cautious as to whether the result would
be a general price increase.
Both
Gerdau
Long
Steel
North
America and Commercial Metals Co
independently announced increases on
rebar products. Gerdau’s increase, raising
transaction prices by $30/st, took effect
21st March, while CMC’s price increase of
$20/st took effect on 1st April.
Buyers said they had already anticipated
higher prices for April following scrap’s
increase in March and early indications
it could increase again in April. One
southeast fabricator commented that,
while higher raw material costs could
provide some upward mobility for rebar
prices, it remains to be seen if demand
will be high enough to achieve the full
$20 or $30 increase. “Everybody would
like for prices to go up, but you want to
see demand drive that, rather than iron
ore and scrap,” he said. “Demand is key,
and that has been so sporadic that an
increase may not stick.”
One midwest distributor said he would be
surprised if anything over $20 would take
effect in the current market conditions.
Rebar demand should increase as the
US heads into construction season, but
demand in February and March was
less robust, according to a mill source. In
addition, although Turkish import offers
for rebar have increased, the domestic
market still remains under pressure, he
said.

Happy neighbors
Three new studies indicate that submarine
electricity cables are not detrimental to
sea life. The work alleviates concerns that
offshore wind and tidal power production
will disrupt marine habitats.
By tracking the movements of fish and
crabs around underwater power cables,
the new studies reveal that marine animals
do not avoid the magnetic fields around
the cables. One study found that the thick
cables can serve as artificial habitats and
host undersea communities, while another
showed crabs freely crossing power cables
to reach baited traps.
In another study, scientists monitored
the marine life around three parts of the
seafloor over three years. One area had a
powered cable; another, an unpowered
cable; and the third area had no cables
at all. The areas attracted similar kinds and
numbers of anemones and other sea life,
and twice as many fish and four times as
many invertebrates favored the cabled
areas over the uncabled section.
Genevra
Harker-Klimes,
a
marine
scientist at the Pacific Northwest national
laboratory, commented that it was very
positive news for the offshore energy
industry.
“There’s much less of a concern now,” said
Ann Bull, a marine biologist at the Bureau of
Ocean Energy Management in California,
who presented two of the studies at the
American Geophysical Union’s ocean
sciences meeting.

sales representatives. Both Schmidtke and
Preiss are current employees who have
held other roles within the company.
Allied believes in promoting from within
because the employees are already
familiar with the products and the Allied
way of doing business, and they bring a
solid foundation from their previous roles.
Julie, who works out of the Tampa
branch, began her career with AWC
in April 2015 as a sales assistant. Prior
to joining the company she worked in
telecommunications sales for several
years. Julie is eager to use her previous
sales experience, as well as her work at
Allied as an assistant, to work closely with
the customer base.
Eric started his wire and cable career
in 2000, becoming Allied’s Wisconsin
warehouse manager in 2008. Since then,
he has moved around within the company
and is currently one of Wisconsin’s branch
managers. Bringing several years of
experience in a wide range of areas to the
forefront, Eric says: “I love the emphasis
that we put on customer service here
and am looking forward to being a more
direct part of that equation.”
Allied is confident that both Eric and Julie
will use their previous AWC expertise to
benefit customers, and provide excellent
service.

Accurate Wire’s 60,000ft2 Branford facility
HVDC project
Accurate acquisition
Siemens is to supply eight converter
transformers for the Nemo Link project,
a 1,000MW HVDC transmission system
connecting Belgium and the UK. The
customer is Nemo Link, a joint venture
between National Grid Nemo Link Ltd, a
subsidiary company of the UK’s National Grid
Plc, and the Belgian Elia Group. Commercial
operation of the link is scheduled to begin in
2019.
Luvata has purchased Accurate Wire Inc.
Luvata will assume the long term lease
on Accurate Wire’s 60,000ft2 Branford
facility, along with ownership of all rolling,
wire drawing, annealing and in-line eddy
current and laser inspection equipment.
The scope of supply comprises eight
transformers, each with a power rating of
365MVA. Fully assembled and installed, each
transformer weighs 448 tons, and measures
17m x 4.1m x 10.6m - not including the
cooling systems. The rated voltage of these
large transformers is 400/470/20.2kV with a
transmission voltage of ±400kV DC via the
HVDC system.
The transformers will first be transported
from the Nuremberg transformer plant to
Nuremberg’s inland harbor, then by inland
waterway barge through the Europa Canal
system to Antwerp and Bruges. Four of
the power transformers will be brought by
heavy-lift transport to the project construction
site in Herdersburg, near Bruges. The other
four transformers will be loaded onto a
roll-on roll-off vessel, shipped to Ramsgate in
England and then transported by heavy-lift
trailer to the project site in Richborough,
20km west of Canterbury.

Cable receives
environmental recognition
Supply is on track
Prysmian Group has won an SPIE Sud-Est
environmental impact category award,
for its new PV1100 AR-cable.
nkt cables will supply overhead contact
lines
for
Banedanmark’s
railway
electrification program.
The PV1100 AR-cable is a low voltage cable
designed for connections in photovoltaic
fields. Its double-insulated and reinforced
sheath, while ensuring the cable’s safety,
also allows for the cable’s direct burial
without additional mechanical protection.
As a result, the adoption of this cable
ensures a shorter and easier installation
phase, with a reduced environmental
impact due to lower material consumption
and transportation.
nkt will supply the cables to the
Aarsleff-Siemens consortium, the main
contractor on the project. The first 57km
of contact lines for the Esbjerg-Lunderskov
line will be delivered in spring 2016.
Prysmian Group received the award during
the first Innovation Challenge ceremony.
For the first edition, 85 companies
competed,
150
innovations
were
submitted, and ten awards were given
in five categories: safety, environmental
impact,
ease
of
implementation,
technological breakthrough innovation,
and economic impact. In each category,
a distinction was made between SMEs and
large groups. Prysmian was selected as
the best large group in the environmental
impact category.

nkt cables CEO Michael Hedegaard
Lyng said: “We are proud that we, as a
Danish company with proud references,
are selected as a supplier of contact
lines to the Banedanmark project and
first delivery is for the Esbjerg-Lunderskov
line. nkt cables is primarily known as a
supplier of power cables for offshore wind
farms, national grids and the construction
branch, amongst others, but we are also
a…recognized player in contact lines to
the railway segment.”
nkt cables has supplied contact lines to
a number of electrification programs in
Spain, Germany and Switzerland, as well
as in Asia and the Americas. Sales to the
railway segment account for around six
percent of company revenue.

Predicting growth in the
automotive sector
Transmission contract
Belgian steel wire maker Bekaert reports
that it anticipates strong demand from
the automotive sector in 2016, adding that
lower steel prices would reduce revenues
but that margins should improve.
Abengoa has been awarded a contract
to construct two new electric substations
and the associated transmission lines in
northeast Oman.
Bekaert, a producer of steel wire for 25
percent of global tire production, added
that it has increased profits by selling
more higher-priced products and exiting
unprofitable business lines.
Operating profit in 2015 rose 36 percent to
$246.5 million, representing a profit margin
of 6.1 percent. The group believes it could
expand this margin further towards its
medium-term target of seven percent in
2016.
EUROPE NEWS
The company will be responsible for
the construction, supply, assembly and
commissioning of 132/33kV substations,
one located in Samad and the other in
Sinaw, for the Oman Electricity Transmission
Company (OETC). The construction
project is expected to last for two years.
Abengoa is already developing OETC’s Al

Phnom Penh
Submarine “bridge” to
Cambodia
Cambodia has granted a concessional
contract to the Cambodia Fiber Optic
Communication Network (CFOCN), a
subsidiary of Shenzhen-based HyalRoute
Group, to invest $69.7million in constructing
and operating submarine cables and
a landing station in southwestern Preah
Sihanouk province.
said in a press conference. “I’m confident
that the project will significantly contribute
to the development of information and
communication technology in Cambodia,”
he continued.
The contract was signed by Cambodian
minister of posts and telecommunications
Prak Sokhonn, and chairman of CFOCN
Huang Xinglong.
HyalRoute Group said that the contract
will move its on-going project of AsiaAfrica-Europe-1 (AAE-1) submarine cable
Cambodia branch to the next stage of
construction.
Kan Channmeta, secretary of state of
the Cambodian ministry of posts and
telecommunications, said the contract is
in the form of BOOT (build-own-operatetransfer) with a period of 25 years before the
company transfers the submarine cables
and landing station to the government.
“This project will contribute to increasing the
percentage of Internet users in Cambodia
from the current 45 percent, or 6.5 million
people, to about 80 percent in 2020,” he
ASIA / AFRICA NEWS
Channmeta said the submarine cables will
have 1.8Tb per second capacity.
The AAE-1 submarine cable, is expected
to be the largest (25,000km) and newest
cable to link major Asian, African, middle
eastern and European nations via the
lowest latency subsea route for over 15
years, a statement said. “Thus it is expected
to significantly bridge the digital divide
between Cambodia and developed areas
in the world.”

Shared power project
Power and water plant
Ceylon Electricity Board (CEB) has
awarded a joint contract to Mitsubishi
Corporation (MC), J-Power Systems
Corporation (JPS), and LTL Projects
(LTL) of Sri Lanka, for the installation of
underground transmission and distribution
cables in the Greater Colombo region
of Sri Lanka. MC and JPS will supply the
transmission cables, with LTL responsible
for ancillary equipment and installation.
Samsung C&T has awarded a contract
to Nexans to supply 575km of power
cables for the Umm Al Houl water and
power project in Qatar. The facility will
increase power generation in Qatar to
11GW (an increase of 23 percent) when
it begins operation in June 2018.
Electricity demand in Sri Lanka is
expected to see an annual increase of
around 7 percent in line with the country’s
7 percent per annum GDP growth rate.
The Greater Colombo area, the island’s
financial center and capital region, is
in a particularly critical situation where
an already insufficient power supply is
combined with a high rate of electricity
loss during transmission due to the aged
infrastructure.
The Umm Al Houl integrated power and
desalination plant will have a capacity
of 2.5GW and will produce 136.5 million
imperial gallons per day (MIGD) of
potable water, enough to supply 2.5
million homes in the region.
Nexans QICC (Qatar International
Cables Company) will supply medium
and low voltage cables. The plant,
located 20km south of Doha, will be
the largest integrated power and water
plant ever constructed in Qatar.
The project is scheduled for completion
in May 2018.

Co Ltd, which was established in 2006 and
began operations in 2007. Supported by
the growth of automobile production in
China, it is now in full operation at a stable
pace exceeding 1,000 tons per month.
The release said that the new company
will help respond to growing demand
for cold heading wire in China, and will
further enhance competitiveness in terms
of quality, cost and delivery.
ASIA / AFRICA NEWS
ATISA, a six-fiber pair optical fiber
submarine cable system of around 280km,

Maldives project
underway
Cables aid in cyclone
recovery
Ooredoo Maldives has begun its offshore
marine survey in preparation for its
nationwide fiber optic submarine cable
project.
Dominion Cables, Fiji’s only manufacturer
of electrical energy cables, has made a
$50,000 donation to the prime minister’s
relief and rehabilitation fund for victims of
tropical cyclone Winston.
Working with Huawei Marine Networks,
the 100G transmission network will extend
to 1,200km. Ooredoo plans to significantly
boost Internet services in the Maldives
and provide high speed fiber internet
connectivity to all the islands across the
nation.
The marine surveys are being carried
out by the exploration survey vessel MV
Duke, which features a specialist survey
laboratory for onboard data processing
and interpretation. The survey will collect
the data required for Huawei Marine
to design a submarine cable system
customized for the Maldives’ marine
environment.
CEO Vikram Sinha added that Ooredoo’s
priority in the Maldives has always been
the establishment of a modern network
to provide the best telecommunication
and Internet services to its islands and
resorts. The operation to lay the submarine
network across the archipelago should
be underway by mid-2016.
38
A statement released by the government
stated that while attorney general and
minister of finance Mr Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum
thanked Dominion Cables for its timely
assistance, he also urged local businesses to
donate to devastated Fijian communities.
The attorney general added that some
retailers had unethically increased the
prices of goods following the cyclone,
and that they have been referred to the
commerce commission for investigation.
“At a time of such urgent need, it is shameful
that some businesses are exploiting people
facing dire circumstances. Instead of
acting greedily, I urge all businesses to lower
your margins to increase volume, boost our
economy, and give people the goods and
services they need at affordable prices,”
he said.

Blachford Corp
Blachford’s low dust dry lubricants reduce
dust creation in multiple ways. They are
more adhesive than standard dry lubricants
and therefore are less likely to detach from
the wire; more flexible than standard dry
lubricants and have a lower tendency to
shatter when the wire bends around pulleys
or capstans; and the feathers are more
cohesive than standard dry lubricants so
they have a lower tendency to break up
and become airborne.

Developed with a modernized look and
feel, Cable Creator enables engineers
and buyers to quickly and easily create
customized RF cable assemblies to meet
their specifications from any combination
of compatible connectors and cables.
Designers can choose from over 1,300
connector types and 115 different coaxial
cables.
General Cable’s original Genfire HCF range
was launched in September 2015. The
range is designed to improve safety and
passive fire protection in the oil industry and
also allows cost savings in the engineering
and construction processes.
Steve Ellis, interconnect product manager
at Pasternack, said: “Our new and improved
Cable Creator now provides the purchasing
simplicity and convenience our customers
have come to expect when placing their
online orders.”
In the event of a fire in a petrochemical
facility, the electrical systems which
supply the critical areas (water pumps,
control rooms, processing equipment,
ventilation, sprinklers, alarms) must remain
in operation, as they are vital for the safety
of the complex. Genfire HCF cables, with
DNV-GL certification, are manufactured
with the most resistant materials, exceeding
the strictest international standards on
fire-resistant cables. They are therefore
suitable to improve the safety of oil
companies, as they remain in operation
even under extreme fire conditions, as
defined in the new revision of NEK TS
606:2016.
For when the going gets tough
Reeling in - and out
General Cable has announced a solution
for the new demands of the new standard,
NEK TS 606:2016. The 2016 revision makes
greater demands in relation to materials
and resistance to oils, in addition to
incorporating flexible conductors as an
option, and dictates the resistance of
cables under extreme fire conditions with
the presence of hydrocarbons. As a result,
General Cable has expanded its Genfire
HCF range, incorporating low voltage,
instrumentation and medium voltage
cables.
The Eraser Company Inc offers reelers and
dereelers in sizes and styles to suit a range
of applications.
Cable Creator also builds a unique product
page, which provides the customer
with a part number, pricing, and a
