The Challenge: Aging PILC Systems
Paper-insulated, lead-covered (PILC) cables – some over 90 years old – are still buried under many North American cities. The EPA urges utilities to remove them due to environmental and reliability ricks. Yet, replacing them is complex:
- Existing ducts often can’t fit modern extruded solid dielectric cables
- PILC removal leaves damaged or misaligned ducts
- Reduction in skilled workers to perform lead wiping PILC cable failure due to age
Smaller, Lighter, Safer.
