Victor Cables Corporation Ltd

The Overhead Line Equipment includes the suspended wires over the railway lines to supply electricity. Among them, one important wire is a contact wire. It is the main component of the system providing electricity via the pantograph of the locomotive. The contact wire used in the railway is solid and hard-drawn grooved electrolytic. It could have a cross-sectional area of 107 sq. mm, 150 sq. mm, or 193 sq. mm. Basically, a high tensile strength combination of metals like Cu-Sn, Cu-Ag, and Cu-Mg is used for its manufacturing. Mostly a copper magnesium alloy is used for the same purpose. Choosing a good railway contact wire manufacturer depends on the availability, reliability, and durability of contact wires. All these criteria should be met before choosing the manufacturer. Also, the wires should be able to tolerate weather conditions like high rainfall, extreme temperatures, and pollution. They can be made to go through various tests to find the best railway contact wire manufa...

Catenary wires are used to suspend contact wires using dropper wires in contact with pantograph. The railway overhead line system, thus provides electrification for hi speed urban transport system. Contact wire railways work as a conductor. With high thermal resistance, tensile strength it is highly reliable. And in India we have Victor cables are the manufacturers of contact wires here in India. Copper, Silver, Copper tin, Copper cadmium, Copper, magnesium is used as nomenclature to this wire. Contact wire railways are made into different types depending upon the traffic, high speed and normal criteria. It’s forecasted that by 2023 this domain is going to see a considerable jump in revenue. Globally, this figure reflects India can play a pivotal role in this segment being source or supplier according to the requirement classification. Railway contact wire manufacturer India’s accountability as major vendor will come up with the supply types of products or sub segments in this categ...

Normally we don’t know Indian Railways trains run on major routes of India are powered by what? It is powered by electricity which is supplied through the overhead wire system. This overhead wire system is called a contact and catenary wire system. read more :  www.victorcables.in/contact-and-catenary-wire/ ------------------------------------------------------- Address: Victor Cables Corporation Ltd 2nd Floor A 86 Bhishma Pitamah Marg Opp Defence Colony New Delhi-110003 ohe@victorcables.in, victorcables@vsnl.com +91-11-41750900, 41750902 http://www.victorcables.in -------------------------------------------------------
