Technical blog
Electrical connection, explained.
The Partalum blog gathers technical articles on connectors, fittings and assemblies for high and extra-high voltage: difference between ACSR and ACSS conductors, suspension and tension assemblies, CFE and NMX-ANCE standards, and selection criteria by voltage level (13.5–400 KV) and mechanical strength (80–480 KN).

About the Partalum technical blog.
What is the Partalum blog about?
We publish technical articles on connectors, fittings and assemblies for high and extra-high voltage: ACSR and ACSS conductors, suspension and tension assemblies, CFE and NMX-ANCE standards, and selection criteria by voltage level.
Who writes these articles?
The Partalum technical team, a Mexican manufacturer of electrical connectors and fittings. Every figure is referenced to the applicable CFE specification or NMX-ANCE standard; anything unconfirmed is marked as such.
