EDS HV Group, part of James Fisher and Sons, has been awarded a critical cable termination and testing contract on the 90 wind turbines that make up RWE’s latest offshore wind farm development, Triton Knoll.

The project involves the installation and termination of high voltage cables between the offshore foundations and the turbine switchgear, with pre-testing, mock-up trials and cable preparation having already been undertaken in late 2020.

EDS’s strong safety, performance and quality records enable a ‘no snag’ approach, completing the work in 36-hour windows to ensure the progression of the time-critical project. This eliminates return site visits, helping keep the safety risk associated with getting crew to the site, the emissions associated with the vessels required, and the cost to the project owner, to a minimum.
