Litmus produces Medium Voltage XLPE

 Kathmandu, Dec. 13

Litmus Industries, a manufacturer of cables, wires, and conductors, has become the first company in Nepal to locally produce Medium Voltage XLPE Covered Conductors, it said in a statement on Friday.

The company said with an annual production capacity of 20,000 kilometres, the Industries would address the growing demand of wires, especially in expanding transmission lines in Nepal.  Designed to meet the highest standards of quality and durability, these conductors are certified under EN 50397 and IS 398 – VI.

According to the company, manufactured using advanced German technology, the process includes triple-layer extrusion for enhanced insulation, deep-water curing for superior cross-linking, and rigorous quality testing such as spark testing and anti-tracking testing.

It said that with a range of 11 KV to 33 KV, these state-of-the-art conductors ensure safety by minimising fire risks, particularly in forested areas, and are engineered for environmental resilience.
