Cable Protection For The Wind Turbines Industry
Wind energy is a powerful renewable energy source that can be used to power homes, schools, businesses and other facilities. Wind farms often have cables and wires that require intensive management to keep them up and running. Since wind turbine cables may be exposed to external elements such as moisture, rain, wind and sunlight, they can be hazardous if not protected.
Extreme temperatures can cause ties to break, while over time, UV light can cause corrosion and other damage. With cable protection for the wind power industry, you can reduce the effects of these factors and create a safer and more economical working environment.
At Hoonsun, we understand the challenges that can arise in wind turbine cable management. Therefore, we offer a wide range of products that provide reliable wire protection for the wind power industry. Our products are durable yet fast to install so you can implement cable protection systems without downtime or financial loss.

Why Does The Wind Turbines Industry Need Cable Protection?
Wind energy is one of the most promising renewable energy sources on the market. Currently, it provides about 10 percent of total U.S. utility electricity. It experiences the largest growth among all power generation technologies until 2022. On average, wind farms are 20 to 40 percent efficient at converting wind energy into energy, which is high for renewable energy.
Wind farms are often exposed to quite severe weather conditions. In wind farms, power cables are used in many different applications including submersible pumps, cooling systems, motor drives and pitch systems. We only provide reliable and durable wire and cable solutions because we know that reliability and durability are critical to successful results, especially in the operation of wind turbine systems where equipment is exposed to a variety of intense weather-related threats. For example, lightning strikes, excessive bending/twisting.
Hoonsun offers a wide range of wire and cable solutions for your wind energy needs. There are several different types of cable protection that can be used in the wind turbines industry, including:
