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.
LT cable was the second product line the business added, back when it made only poles. It is now a 1,000 kilometre a month operation, and it underpins the underground cable work we are known for in the field.
Because we lay cable as well as make it, the specification we manufacture to is the one we then have to install, joint and commission ourselves. That tends to concentrate the mind on the things that matter — insulation wall consistency, armour quality and drum handling.
