Hindustan Zinc announced that its top quality zinc has been used in the galvanization process for India’s heaviest transmission steel pole structure. The massive 400 kV (kilovolts) dual pole structure standing approximately 57 meters tall, underwent galvanization process utilizing a mix of Hindustan Zinc’s low-dross jumbo special high grade zinc and special high grade (SHG) zinc ingots. The zinc galvanization process protects the intricate structure from corrosion and forms a barrier against air, water, heat and pollution thereby enhancing the structural integrity of the dual pole. The structure, designed and manufactured by Skipper Limited, is part of the 400 kV Quad Moose DC Transmission Lines Project under the proposed Pinnapuram Integrated Renewable Energy with Storage Project in Andhra Pradesh. Skipper, India’s largest power transmission and distribution structure manufacturer, operates one of the country’s largest galvanizing facilities at its West Bengal plant.
