Logistics and network
Shipping to Guinea.
Consignments for Guinea move Sea from Nhava Sheva to Conakry, then road. Typical transit is 28 to 40 days; discharge at Conakry. We quote Ex Factory or FOB Mundra / Nhava Sheva, with payment by LC at sight or advance, USD or EUR.
The grid runs at 50 Hz with 400/230 V low-voltage supply and Medium-voltage distribution to IEC practice (20 kV and 30 kV classes); 110 kV and 225 kV transmission. Distribution is operated by Electricite de Guinee (EDG), regulated by Ministry of Energy; AREE regulator. Import conformity: EDG technical specifications; IEC designs; French-language documentation.
ACSR is the workhorse of Indian overhead distribution and transmission. It is also one of the two products that lets us quote a complete line package — tower, conductor, pole and transformer — rather than a part of one.
The table below is the IS 398 (Part 2) basis we manufacture and test against. One caution worth stating plainly: IS 398 Part 5 publishes the same codewords with resistance around 2–3% lower and breaking loads 2–3% higher. Mixing rows from the two parts is the easiest way for a utility QA engineer to catch an error, so we quote Part 2 throughout and say so.
