Our Vision
To be the leading manufacturer of cables and overhead power conductors in central and southern Africa.
Corporate Mission
Our focus is to continue producing quality cables to international standards whilst providing efficient & timely delivery of cables. We strive to provide superior products, after-sale services and technical support to all our customers, ensuring zero importation of cables into our country.
Technical department
Our Technical team is headed by a consultant, professor in electrical engineering, an expert in cable design and manufacturing.
He has over 35 years of experience in Electrical Engineering, particularly in Cable Design, Quality Assurance & Power Systems.
Guarantee of Quality
Attention to quality is one of the reasons to our continued success. Emphasis at all levels is placed on our endeavor to achieve product performance, safety and reliability.
To this end, all company activities from design all through to production, inspection and dispatch are fully controlled, documented and under regular review.
Our professional, and committed team of dedicated staff have a wealth of experience, and expertise that help us achieve our goals.
Currently we hold quality systems and product approvals from our national authorities:
All our cables are manufactured to British Standards (BS) and comply with South African National Standards (SANS).
Laboratory
CM Laboratory is equipped with state-of –the-art equipment that enables it to test all cables from start to finish, for compliance with various standards to which they are manufactured. Customer cables are also analyzed by our laboratory to enable the manufacturing department to produce the same.
For instance where the standard range does not cover your requirements, our Technical Department is at hand to offer their expertise in designing the cable you require.
Cable Selection
It is essential that any design of a cable system selected for a particular project or distribution system is suitable for its intended use. Choice needs to be based on a range of factors including installation specifications, local regulations and the required performance characteristics, some of which are shown below:
- Normal current load
- Maximum fault current and its duration under fault conditions
- Voltage grade
- Subsoil conditions for underground installation e.g., presence of water, soil temperature and thermal resistivity, possible attack of rodents, termites etc.
- Cable fire performance requirements
- Compatibility with an existing distribution system
