NKT Lighthouse – a beacon of the green transition

In 2020, NKT initiated an investment program in its high-voltage factories driven by a record high order backlog and a positive market outlook driven by the transition to renewable energy. A key part of the program was to add a new extrusion tower to the Swedish factory in Karlskrona.
The tower is one of highest buildings in Sweden and it required a massive amount of building wires in order to operate 17 floors of production and office facilities.
It goes without saying that the extrusion tower, that is built to produce the cables of the highest voltage level in the industry, should be built using NKT high quality building wires.

The cables were brought to the installation area with the help of the NKT Qaddy

Like a nervous system, building wires are installed and run through the tower to power machinery, lights and appliances. The building wires were installed by Assemblin, a leading installation company with long experience in green technology and smart buildings.
The cables were brought to the installation area with the help of the NKT Qaddy, the sustainable and reusable cable trolley, loaded with installation cable, which allows the installer to easily bring the material close to the workspace and feed cable as it is being pulled out.
Building wires and 1 kV cables
NKT EXQ Xtra is a standard building wire found in modern facilities with an innovative breakable sheath for exfoliation. It makes working with it easier and safer with reduced risk of damaging the conductors. For more capacity and an aluminum screen the variant EXLQ Xtra allows for 450/750 V.
For 1 kV applications RXQ Xtra was chosen for the project. This NKT Premium cable features a rugged sheath, resistant to damages while being thin, smooth and flexible. The innovative scaling thread inside the cable enables easy cable stripping and secures best possible working environment and lifelong durability.
