Logistics and network
Shipping to United Arab Emirates.
Consignments for United Arab Emirates move Sea from Mundra or Nhava Sheva to Jebel Ali, then road to any emirate. Typical transit is 3 to 5 days; discharge at Jebel Ali (Dubai), Khalifa Port (Abu Dhabi). We quote Ex Factory or FOB Mundra / Nhava Sheva, with payment by LC at sight or advance, USD or AED.
The grid runs at 50 Hz with 400/230 V low-voltage supply and 11 kV and 33 kV distribution (22 kV in parts of Abu Dhabi); 132 kV and above transmission. Distribution is operated by DEWA (Dubai), ADDC and TRANSCO (Abu Dhabi), SEWA (Sharjah), EtihadWE (northern emirates), regulated by Emirate-level regulators and the Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure. Import conformity: ESMA / MoIAT ECAS applies to low-voltage equipment up to 1,000 V; medium-voltage equipment is accepted against utility specifications and type-test certificates (DEWA, ADDC, SEWA).
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.
