Hendrix Wire & Cable Offers Cost Effective Solutions For Overhead Distribution Systems

Milford, NH - Hendrix Wire & Cable, a premier provider of high quality overhead and underground power distribution products, offers its Hendrix Spacer Cable as a cost effective solution for overhead distribution systems. Hendrix Wire & Cable Systems are commonly associated with cost savings related to improved reliability and less tree trimming; however, the added cost savings associated with circuit design are often overlooked.

The inherent strength, compact configuration, and reduced clearance requirements of Hendrix Spacer Cable can be used to address common design challenges on electrical distribution circuits. With span lengths of up to 1600 feet, Hendrix Spacer Cable Systems can be designed to cross highways, rivers, gorges, wetlands, and other environmentally sensitive areas, eliminating the need for costly rerouting.. Spanning between transmission towers can be achieved without the need for intermediate poles.

The NESC allows for reduced clearances between Spacer Cable Systems and buildings or other structures when required by local conditions. These reduced clearances, along with the close phase spacing, make Hendrix Spacer Cable the ideal solution for congested areas such as alleyways and industrial areas. Traditional solutions, like underground cables or taller poles, are often much more expensive.

The strength and close phase spacing features of Hendrix Spacer Cable facilitate the mounting of multiple circuits on a single pole, thus greatly increasing the amount of power that can be delivered through a right-of-way corridor. When needed, Spacer Cable can be under or over-built on existing poles to eliminate the need for new poles or right-of-way. Double and triple circuits on a pole are usually have lower project costs than bare wire alternatives. Multiple Spacer Cable circuits also eliminate the costs of acquiring new right-of-way. These savings are especially clear on substation exits. Designed with a cable covering, Hendrix Spacer Cable can eradicate clearance issues off the substation bus bar and the use of up to eight three-phase circuits on each pole greatly reduces both material and right-of-way costs.
