As the shipping industry faces increasingly stringent environmental regulations, shore power provides a sustainable solution to meet emission reduction targets and comply with local, regional, and international environmental laws. Shore power contributes to global efforts to alleviate climate change and limit its impact on the environment. Let’s break down what is shore power and what are the benefits.

Mobile STATCOM (Static Synchronous Compensator) systems are compact, portable units designed to provide reactive power support to the grid. They are used to stabilize voltage levels and reduce power losses in the transmission and distribution networks, particularly during periods of high demand or when there is a fault in the system. 

Shielded and unshielded industrial cables are two types used to transmit electrical power or data signals in various industries. 

Very few industries like the Food and Beverage Industry involve complex and challenging hygienic requirements. Over time, high-pressure sprays, high temperature water, cleaners, and sanitizers can breakdown electrical cables and connectors. These harsh conditions result in frequent maintenance and cable failures which can cause unwanted downtime and slower production. It's important for businesses in the food and beverage industry to work with reputable suppliers or manufacturers who specialize in providing industrial wire and cable solutions that meet the industry's specific requirements and regulations. 

The steel market has faced many challenges such as supply chain issues and project halts due to the worldwide pandemic trials throughout recent years. Don’t let cable failure add to the mix!  

Industrial and commodity wire and cables are truly two different types of cables used for different applications. Industrial wire and cables are designed and manufactured for use in industrial settings such as Industrial Automation, Metals, Manufacturing, Military, Utility, Transit, and other heavy-duty industries and applications.  

If you work in the Shipyard or Marine Industry, you come face to face daily with the harsh conditions that wreak havoc on your operating equipment’s wire and cable. You constantly are struggling with environments causing premature cable failures. Shipyards are typically exposed to various factors that can damage cables, including moisture, extreme temperatures, corrosive materials, and heavy loads.

Mining is an inherently harsh environment. Applications expose wire and cable to serious abuse, which is a common cause of failure in commodity cables. Choosing a high-performance industrial cable, assembly or accessory is critical to maintaining safety, and reducing labor, material, and downtime costs.

Is your facility facing issues from extremely cold temperatures or the elements of mother nature during winter? Heat trace cables and assemblies can decrease downtime, increase safety and ultimately save your water pipes from bursting.  

The majority, if not all electrical wire and cable sold, will have specific ratings and/or certificates to define its intended use while providing end-users with a level of confidence in the cable's safety and reliability. The certification process ensures the cable meets the requirements of published safety standards such as OSHA and other safety organizations.
