Offshore Wind
Maximise Uptime, Enhance Safety & Increase Reliability
Of Your Offshore Wind Applications
Webinar: Thursday 4th March 10.00 am – 10.30 am
Thorne & Derrick International together with Panduit are pleased to Invite you to Register to a Joint Webinar discussing innovation in Offshore Cable Management & Electrical Safety to ensure you are maximizing all Offshore Wind application opportunities.
The installed capacity of wind energy has grown tenfold over the past decade, and is now a major force in renewable energy initiatives. Wind power’s future is challenged by trends toward the use of larger turbines to optimize performance in low wind locations, and the desire to build capital-intensive offshore farms. As a result, wind energy producers are looking for partners who can help them maximize output at the lowest total cost.
Panduit plays an important role in the energy value chain.
Invest 30 minutes in this focused webinar and walk away with an understanding of how to address key market challenges to ensure that your organisation is positioned to select a robust physical infrastructure capable of supporting the needs of tomorrow, today.
Bite size solution Touch Points will include:
- Cable Ties: Impacts of materials and longevity
- Stainless Steel ties: Benefits brought by stronger and vibration proof cable ties
- The importance of Ergonomic Tooling to Health and Safety
- Cable Cleats to IEC61914 and why cleats are critical for short circuit protection
- Identification and Permanent Identification Solutions
- Lock Out / Tag Out
- VeriSafe™ Improved productivity and increased Health and Safety of Absence of Voltage testing
