The role of the electricity sector as the backbone of a growing economy has evolved with time, ushering in prosperity and powering up Industry 4.0. This places new expectations on electricity transmission and distribution (T&D) solutions providers to ensure uninterrupted power and minimize the chances of disruption by storms and power leakage. Simultaneously, a growing economy increases business opportunities across various geographical terrains, requiring them to provide reliable underground and overhead cables and other T&D solutions while ensuring safety.

Marmon Utility, a manufacturer serving the T&D industry for over 170 years, has evolved with the changing requirements of its global customers in the electric sector. Carrying extensive experience in engineering, manufacturing, installation, and service of electric cable systems and polymer insulators, Marmon Utility under the brand names Hendrix and Kerite provides solutions that increase the reliability and resiliency of T&D systems to ensure zero power disruptions.

“We consider ourselves the utmost innovative provider that offers the most reliable and resilient value-added solutions. We bring innovation to the industry by providing tailored solutions to our customers, enabling them to meet their reliability goals, which has led to our long-term success,” says Ken Woo, President of Marmon Utility.

Hendrix Aerial Cables Systems offers covered overhead cable solutions that cut down power outages by 90 percent and increase a utility’s return on investment. Anchored by a high-strength messenger wire that supports polymer spacers and covered conductors, this system can withstand harsh weather conditions including ice, snow, and storms. In addition, Hendrix polymer insulators, which are made from a proprietary blend of high-density polyethylene, offer superior electrical performance and are lighter than commonly used porcelain insulators, yet resistant to cracks and breaks.
