Retrofit for cable systems

As technology evolves and regulations change, upgrading or expanding your cable systems becomes essential for reliable operation, controlled operating costs, and legal compliance. Brugg Cables analyzes your systems and components, establishes your upgrade requirements, plans the project, and implements it with precision. This involves a critical assessment of whether a conversion – a bypass solution that keeps the system operating at top performance for its designed lifespan – or a complete new installation would be more practical.

System modernization and capacity expansion

System modernization is essential for operators managing aging high-voltage cable infrastructure. Old cable standards like oil and GASA cables require replacement solutions due to environmental and cost considerations. Our experts evaluate network capacity, cable system structure, and route options, then manage retrofit projects as your general contractor. Projects range from replacing individual components to complex turnkey solutions, utilizing existing pipe systems for modern XLPE cables and balancing affordability, technical feasibility, and regulatory compliance to extend infrastructure life and enhance performance.
