IMCORP Utility Clients Exceed $200M Saved

MANCHESTER, Conn., July 18, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --  IMCORP, the global provider of the Factory Grade^SM test for power cable, is proud to announce a landmark achievement in its cable reliability programs. Utilities around the world have experienced great success implementing IMCORP technology to assess their new and aging cable systems. This success has now been realized through the deferred replacement of millions of feet of cable totaling over $200 million. IMCORP President Bruce Broussard stated: "Crossing this milestone provides further evidence that the Factory Grade^SM test is the most cost-effective approach to addressing underground distribution system reliability."

The Factory Grade^SM test provides an accurate condition assessment of each cable and locates defects that have a potential to cause failure. This data empowers utilities to selectively rehabilitate cables based on expected performance. This process not only saves utility clients millions of dollars, but positively impacts system reliability by pinpointing issues that need to be addressed. The net result is dramatically more efficient use of available budget to improve the reliability of their distribution network.

IMCORP assessment programs also provide significant benefits to the environment. By reducing trenching, waste of cable materials, and greenhouse gases associated with manufacturing and transportation of cable, IMCORP and its clients continue to have a positive impact on their communities.
