1 PROFILE HINDUSTHAN VIDYUT PRODUCTS LIMITED started manufacturing and marketing Bare Aluminium Conductors for Overhead Power Transmission & Distribution Lines in 1959 and has relentlessly marched forward, being currently one of the largest Manufacturers of the same in India. Professionalism of the highest calibre, inspired vision and drive for product innovation contributed to the success of the business in a competitive market both in the domestic front and exports. Within easy reach of the national capital New Delhi are the two manufacturing plants, located in the States of Haryana and Madhya Pradesh. The present installed capacity for Bare Aluminium and Aluminium alloy Conductors is M.Ton per annum. HVPL also manufactures vast range of PVC and XLPE cables upto 132 KV lines. In the last few years, the company has been concentrating mainly on the manufacturing of specialized multistrand bigger size conductors required for E.H.V. lines and AAAC conductors for distribution & transmission lines. It has supplied ACSR Conductors for 500 KV HVDC and upto 800 KV Transmission Lines in all major Super Thermal Power Projects in India. The various sizes of AAC/ AAAC, ACSR conductors manufactured covers the entire range of high voltage transmission and distribution lines from 0.4 KV to 800 KV. The Hindusthan Vidyut Products Limited has created a reputation for its AAC/AAAC, ACSR conductors in overseas market and has a diversified overseas market share in line with bulk exports of AAC/AAAC, ACSR conductors made to Libya, Bangladesh, Federal Republic of Germany, Yugoslavia, Iran, Trinidad, Srilanka, Tanzania, Mauritius, Nepal, Kenya, Muscat, Zimbabwe, Uganda, Ghana, Sudan etc. In recognition of the same the company was honoured with Award number of times by Engineering Export Promotion Council, India for export excellence over the years.

16 STORAGE & HANDLING OF CONDUCTOR DRUMS AT SITE AND DURING THE INSTALLATION UN-LOADING OF DRUMS Always use fork lifts, cranes/hoists for unloading conductor drums. In case the above are not available the drums shall be rolled down by well-supported ramp. The drums should never be dropped as this may cause damage to the flanges and conductors. Always use some checking arrangements to stop the drum rolling on the ground. Ensure wearing safety shoes, hand gloves, safety cap & other aids all times. DURING STORAGE AND HANDLING Use strong and well-drained surface for storing conductor drums. Use some check pieces so as not to allow the drums to be rolled loosely & easily. The drums should never be stored flat on their flanges. The drums shall be handled by only regular and trained forklift /crane operators. Use correct capacity fork lift/crane/hoist for loading and movement of drums. Ensure that the chains/ropes of forklift, cranes & hoists are free from defect & kinks/twists. Drums should not be moved from the side by using forks. CHECKING OF DRUMS Check marking details of drums & compare with the packing & marking documents. Check the drum & conductor are in proper condition by removing same lagging but relagging must be done after checking. While opening the packing, a careful watch should be made to ensure tools used in opening do not damage the layers of conductor. If the drum is damaged, the conductor should be unwound by using rotating turn table. To open the conductor & merely pull it straight out is very dangerous practice as the conductor will get twisted. If the conductor gets twisted it may results in breakage of strands, loosening & bird caging etc. it is very important to watch that the conductor does not twist as even a single twist may permanently damage the conductor. CONDUCTOR PULLING AND STRINGING While unrolling the drum, conductor end shall be pulled from top instead of in reverse to avoid damage and loosening of conductor. While starting hold the conductor tightly and pulled in correct direction (Unrolling) and avoid any twist. Apply safe pulling force about Kg/mm' of total conductor cross sectional area or 8 to 10 % of its UTS value. Minimum bending radius of conductor shall be maintained i.e. MC - 20 D, ACSR and AAAC - 25 D. Before pulling of conductor, the drum should be fixed on stands for free movement. Select a suitable position for the conductor drum jacks to ensure that drum may be raised and rotated with full safety. The brake should be provided for the drum. The speed shall be controlled and supervised by experienced person. Care should be taken for steady pull avoiding jerks, twisting, kinking etc. Ensure suitable tools and method used during pulling to avoid excess tension, jerks, twisting, side pressure or any other damage or deformation of conductor.
