CABLETECH 2026

13th International Conference on Power Cables

๐Ÿ“ Bengaluru, India | ๐Ÿ—“ 18โ€“19 June 2026

About the Conference

Rising power demand, integration of renewables, and Right of Way (RoW) challenges for overhead lines are accelerating the shift toward underground cables in transmission and distribution. Alongside HVDC systems and advanced insulation such as nano-dielectrics, the role of specialized solar cables and accessories for renewable integration is becoming increasingly important.

Utilities continue to face challenges in condition monitoring, but modern diagnostic methods and analytical tools are improving maintenance practices.

The 13th CABLETECH Conference will focus on safe and reliable cable transmission systems with special attention to Cables for Renewable Energy, HVDC, innovative materials, assessment techniques, special application cables, Aerial Bunched Cables, Covered Conductors and condition monitoring.

Since 1983, CABLETECH has brought together engineers, scientists, manufacturers, and regulators worldwide to share insights and advance cable technologies.

Hosted in Bengaluru, Indiaโ€™s Garden City and a hub of research and technology, the conference offers both technical insights and opportunities for networking in a vibrant setting.
