OPPC makes full use of the power system's own line resources to avoid conflicts with the outside environment in frequency resources, routing coordination, electromagnet compatibility and so on, it is a new type of special power optical cable for power communication. Optical Phase Conductor (OPPC) is used as an alternative telecommunications solution when there is no existing ground wire, meaning Optical Ground Wire (OPGW) is not a viable option. This cable integrates optical fiber units within the phase conductor, combining the functions of electrical power transmission and iber optic communication. OPPC cables are primarily used in voltage levels below 110kV, such as suburban distribution netwo ks and rural. It is mainly applied in voltage classes under 110kV, urban power distribution grid and rural power grid.
