Bare overhead conductor
CTC Global Corporation, based in Irvine, California developed, tested, and produces the composite core used in ACCC Bare Overhead Conductors. The ACCC Conductor, produced
in association with more than 30 international stranding partners including General Cable, Lamifil, Taihan and others, leverages advanced carbon fiber technology to help improve the efficiency, capacity, reliability, and resiliency
of electric power grids worldwide. The ACCC Conductor offers strength, high capacity and
low line losses. Line loss reductions range from
25 to 40% or more. Reduced line losses not
only reduces fuel consumption and associated emissions, it also frees up generation capacity that is otherwise wasted

In-line fuses
These Stäubli MC4 in-line fuses are suitable for use with solar installations using Stäubli MC4 wire leads. These products utilize a special crimp connection directly to the fuse which guarantees a long-lasting, stable connection. This helps ensure low energy loss and long reliability. The fuse is housed in a rugged IP68-rated enclosure with integrated mounting points, and utilizes genuine Staubli MC4 PV connectors for connecting to the PV system. This product is configured as a ready- to-use cable harness device that is available in ratings up to 1500VDC and 30A; the total length
of this product is either 19.7" or 21.7" (50cm or 55cm) depending on voltage rating and available versions are UL-listed.
