Five towers project demanded five-star cable
The soon to be completed, billion-dollar, Etihad Towers development is set to become one of the most prestigious in Abu Dhabi. Consisting of five towers and located on the waterfront at the end of the Abu Dhabi Corniche, the development rises up to 77 storeys at its peak and features a range of amenities, including five star hotel tower, huge shopping mall, 870 apartments and extensive conference facilities.
The vast fire alarm system, which stretches across the complex, employs Prysmian's FP200 Gold cable. The Electrical Project Manager on site said: "On such a large and important installation as this, with more than 200,000m of cable being installed by our electricians, it was imperative that we used the best fire cable on the market. The Etihad Towers will be a major landmark in the region and so we could not risk using a product that would fail if the worst should happen.
"We also chose to work with Prysmian because we knew we could rely on supply and delivery of such a large cable order when we needed it. Needless to say we are on schedule to complete our work in 3 months time."
