August 3, 2009 -- Allied Wire & Cable (AWC) recently announced a partnership with C&M Corporation to become an authorized distributor of C&M's GreenLINX line of wind turbine cables.
The GreenLINX wind turbine cables carry Underwriters Laboratories' WTTC approval for 1000 volt cable. AWC notes that, in years past, there was no standard for cables used in wind turbines; the new standard, which stands for Wind Turbine Tray Cable, is now required by the UL for use in wind turbines. Not using cables with WTTC approval can mean costly replacements down the road, contends AWC.
According to C&M, the GreenLINX cables are manufactured in America with recyclable materials. Oil, solvent, chemical and fuel resistant, they are manufactured specifically to withstand the rigors of wind power environments. Their flexible construction allows for easy termination and installation as well as helping the cables to fit in tight spaces, maintains the company.
