Cable Monitoring Solutions

Maximizing the utility, increase the operational performance and monitor the cable's health

Electricity is fundamental in today's world, where power cables have become indispensable for energy supply security. Therefore, maximising cable asset utility is essential but challenging due to fluctuating demands in different markets and environments, as well as the introduction of new and renewable energy sources.

All of this shows the importance of transmitting power to what it is most needed. Cable monitoring supports you in maximising your cable throughput, preventing failures and reducing outage time, and extending the cable system lifespan.

With over 130 years in the cable industry, NKT collaborates closely with sensor system suppliers, such as fiber optic sensing systems, while also developing our own advanced monitoring systems, such as curvature montioring. Yet, the key benefits of a monitoring system come when you Integrate sensors with real-life knowledge and experience.

NKT provides access to a team of experts for who are skilled in drawing the right conclusions and making the right recommendations.

Curvature Sensing System (CSS)

Floating offshore wind turbines face continuous movement from powerful winds and waves, which places stress on the dynamic cables employed. This combination of wave-induced bending motions and tensile loads causes the cable's internal components to experience repeated stress and strain variations. Monitoring these real-world conditions is crucial for preserving the cable's longevity.

NKT's Curvature Sensing System (CSS) tackles the uncertainties related to cable fatigue in these dynamic environments, providing a dependable solution for ensuring durability.
