Both OPGW and OPPC are transmission safety devices for power lines, and their function is to protect power lines and secure transmission of other equipment. However, there are also some differences between them. Below we will compare the differences between OPGW and OPPC.

1. Structure
OPGW is an insulated composite cable made of metal fibers. It is characterized by a fire barrier layer between the core wire and the insulator, which can transmit the fire from the core wire to the insulator and prevent the fire from being transmitted back to the core wire. OPPC is composed of multiple layers of metal foil, which can effectively prevent the spread of fire to ensure the safety of the cable.

2. Purpose
The main use of OPGW is on high-voltage power lines to protect lines from natural disasters such as storms and disasters such as fires, and to ensure safe transmission of power lines. The main use of OPPC is on lower-voltage power lines to protect the lines from natural disasters and fires and other disasters, while ensuring the safe transmission of power lines.

3. Installation location
The installation position of OPGW is mainly on the top of high-voltage power lines to ensure that the power lines are not affected by natural disasters such as storms and effectively prevent the spread of fire. The installation position of OPPC is mainly on lower-voltage power lines, which can effectively prevent the spread of fire, thereby protecting power lines from fire and other disasters.

4. Cost
The cost of OPGW is more expensive than OPPC, because the structure of OPGW is more complicated and the production cost is relatively high, while the structure of OPPC is relatively simple and the production cost is relatively low.

5. Application scope
OPGW is mainly used in high-voltage power lines, which can effectively protect power lines from natural disasters such as storms, and prevent the spread of fire. OPPC is mainly used in low-voltage power lines, which can effectively prevent the spread of fire and ensure the safe transmission of power lines.

In a word, the difference between OPGW and OPPC lies in the aspects of structure, purpose, installation location, cost and application range. The safe transmission of power lines requires the correct use of the correct equipment to ensure the safe operation of power lines. Hunan GL Technology Co., Ltd is a manufacturer of optical cables such as OPGW, OPPC, and ADSS. Use the logo "and other product certification certificates. The company has passed the ISO9001 quality management system certification and obtained the right to import and export.
