Supported by contractor PT Centra Multi Elektrindo, PLN completed another 500 kV ACCC® Reconductoring project in Cilegon, Banten, Java on their Balaraja – Bojonegara transmission line project. PLN’s highly experienced in-house engineering team selected Lisbon size ACCC® Conductor to replace ACSR Dove size conductor to increase line capacity, while improving grid efficiency and reliability.
ACCC® Conductor manufactured and supplied by CTC Global’s manufacturing partner PT KMI Wire and Cable, Tbk. The quad-bundled conductors were installed on existing steel lattice structures without modification. The six crews assembled for the project used OMAC and TESMEC pulling equipment and ACCC® Hardware provided by Dervaux.
The six installation crews were supported by ACCC Master Installers Yaniar, Rio, and Susanto of Dinamika, and Certified Installation Supervisors Jaswadi, Dudung, and Ridwan of KMI.
