Lamifil is to manufacture and sell, in Europe, the ACCC conductors of Composite Technology Corp (CTC) based in Irvine, California, USA.
ACCC--aluminum conductor composite core--conductors are high efficiency conductors for use in electrical transmission grid systems, which demonstrate less electricity line losses when compared with conventional conductors.
When deployed in place of conventional conductors on existing systems, the higher efficiency of ACCC conductors enables power generators to reduce the amount of power they must produce while still delivering the same power to the customer. They have also demonstrated significant savings in upgrade ...
