Recently, the recommended awarding list of the 16th China Quality Award has been issued. “The ±800 kV Xiangjiaba-Shanghai Ultrahigh Voltage Direct Current Transmission Demonstration Project”, strategically supplied by Far East Cable Co. Ltd., a wholly- owned subsidiary under Far East Smarter Energy Co. Ltd. (Abbreviation: Smarter Energy, Stock code: 600869), wins the nomination of “Excellent Project Award of China Quality Award”.
As the wire supplier of this project, Far East Cable Co. Ltd supplies over 5,000 tons of ACSR720/50 aluminum conductor steel reinforced for smart power grids. ACSR720/50 aluminum conductor steel reinforced for smart power grids is a new large section wire developed by Far East Cable Co. Ltd and its various performance index meet the project’s technology demands with its performance data in corona test, conductor resistance, mechanics test having higher margin, which satisfy the quality demands of this project.
This project was successfully put into operation in July, 2010. In order to commend Far East Cable Co. Ltd for its great contribution, Jiang Huajun, vice-president and CEO of Far East Smarter Energy Co. Ltd., and Wang Chuanbin, senior vice general manager, CTO of cable industry and CQO of Far East Smarter Energy Co.
