Wind Farm Cable Installation

The Blackley Construction team has a great depth of knowledge and experience with wind farm cable installation in various South Island and North Island locations in New Zealand.

We have completed cable installation on 9 wind farm projects to date which has required the installation of more than 180km of underground cable. Most of this has cable been buried in the road with very strict construction standards applied.

Blackley Constructions’ broad experience with a wide range of wind farm projects and ground conditions lead us to purchase and to fabricate a number of specialist equipment items. Our team has developed specific techniques which enable us to install cable faster and safer (for both staff and cable) than conventional excavation methods.

We have also learnt from earlier projects that early contractor involvement in the design, management and programming of the works can pay huge dividends in the final project cost, efficiency and ease at which the project is carried out.

We have skilled and experienced staff that are able to work with you as your project is developed; we are the only contractor in the country with this track record of successful wind farm cable installation.

Blackley Construction are able to work under a number of contractual arrangements from subcontractor to ‘turn key’ provider, where we use a specialist electrical subcontractor for the jointing and connection work.
