Andy O'Malley, all-round Jointer and "Good Guy". Proud member of IBEW 258.

We have the greatest pleasure in showcasing this first example of Andy's jointing expertise on our Photoblog - terminating medium voltage cable into S&C switchgear using Elastimold Connectors.

We have plenty more to come from Andy including an image series featuring the pulling, laying and terminating of 138kV Southwire EHV cable using NKT cable terminations.

Jointing is in the O'Malley genes. Andy's father Patrick inspired him to follow in his footsteps - we hope to soon run some "old-skool" photo's from the family archive of Patrick's splicing work.

Whether down the trench or up the pole, Andy is a key member of the Allteck team.

Allteck are international leaders in the design, construction, maintenance and upgrade of overhead and underground high voltage electric power utilities.
