CATU HV Insulating Rubber Gloves

CATU CG-4 Class 4 Insulating Rubber Latex Gloves

 

T&D have competitively tendered to KESC for the contract supply of CATU CG-4 Insulating gloves for high voltage overhead linesmen. At present, KESC is the only vertically-integrated power utility in Pakistan and manages the generation, transmission and distribution of electricity.

KESC covers a vast area of 6,000 square kilometers and supplies electricity to all the industrial, commercial, agricultural and residential areas that fall under its network. KESC's modern distribution system begins as the primary circuit leaves the sub-station and ends at the secondary service, where it enters the customer's meter socket.
