Sevkabel, based in St.Petersburg, Russia, is a cable manufacturing company.

History

Sevkabel was founded in 1879 by the St.Petersburg subsidiary of the German company Siemens & Halske[1]. Following the Russian Revolution in 1917, the company was nationalized. By 1931 Sevkabel was making paper-insulated, lead-covered high voltage cables, the first to be produced in Russia. During the Siege of Leningrad in 1942, Sevkabel produced over 100 km of submarine medium-voltage cable which was laid on the bed of Lake Ladoga, restoring the energy supply of the besieged city from Volkhov Hydroelectric Station[2]. In 1993 Sevkabel was privatized. In 2017-19, the historical part of the Sevkabel plant on the shore of Vasilyevsky Island was redeveloped, being transformed into an art hub, Sevkabel Port[3].

Products

Sevkabel produces electrical cable products for the energy, construction, industrial, and specialty markets. The company's power cables include low-, medium- and high-voltage power distribution and power transmission products. Sevkabel's application-specific industrial and specialty cables are used in electrical power generation — traditional and renewable — the oil, gas and petrochemical industries; mining, marine, transit, military, infrastructure, residential, geophysical and OEM applications. Sevkabel sells its products under several brands including Kabtron®, Robustek®, Aquatron®, and Kabprotek®. Sevkabel owns a R&D bureau specializing in design of custom cables and cables accessories. In 2018 Sevkabel produced a special coaxial cable for the ITER facility in France [4].
