Specifically, Kinectrics will purchase an additional 10 mobile resonant test systems (RTS) from HIGHVOLT. The “multi-million-dollar investment” solidifies Kinectrics as the largest independent global provider of on-site HV cable testing services, the statement said. It stated further that the expansion is a strategic response to the anticipated growth in the HV cables market, which is “expected to quadruple” due to the increase in renewable energy construction projects. This growth is leading to a higher demand for reliable commissioning services for newly installed subsea and underground transmission networks.

Harris highlighted that Kinectrics remains a technical leader in the sector through ongoing innovations in diagnostic methods, the frequent publication of research and technical papers, and active participation in international standards organizations such as IEC, CIGRE, and IEEE.
