PFT Solutions

Our PFT solutions enable fluid-filled cable operators to locate leaks without de-energising their cable circuits. Crucially, this helps minimise costly network down time and reduces the environmental impact of a leak. Not only that, it can extend the usable life of the fluid-filled cable system resulting in a lower total cost of ownership.

Utilising decades of experience in the installation, maintenance and repair of fluid-filled cables, we offer an unrivalled suite of essential services, tools, equipment and specialist knowledge required for modern fluid-filled cable maintenance.

We have specialists across the world, including fluid-filled cable-maintenance engineers, high-voltage jointers and oil mechanics, supported by teams of skilled civil workers.

Essential services include: 

• Injection and detection of PFT 
• Leak location 
• All aspects of fluid-filled cable repair 
• Supply and installation of fluid-filled cable accessories, including transition joints  
• Electrical testing and fault-finding 
• Cable jointers and oil mechanics, who are trained in Prysmian’s dedicated jointer-training schools
