As we enter the 39th National Day

Celebration we at OCI has had

many cheers. OCI received the

BASEC product approval. Mr Hans

Meiring, COO states that it is a rare

distinction, however, we must not

remain content with this certification,

Oman Cables will explore various

other international accreditations for

which the ground work has already

begun.

Another significant milestone

achieved in the history of OCI. AMemorandum of Understanding

was signed with Electricity

Holding Company; a governing

body representing all electricity

companies of Oman. Management

cites that this will open-up many

more avenues and will be a win-

win situation for Oman Cables and

Electricity Holding.

OAPIL OCIs ambitious projectat Sohar does not need a special

mention; there has been huge

developments that has taken place

during the last few months which

has been reported in the subsequent

pages.

With this issue we have introduced

a new topic our value creators in

which you will find how our shop-

floor employees have nurtured ideas

and applied in their daily tasks thus

creating value no matter how small

it is, it adds value to our company.

Dont forget, share your thought/

insights and win RO 20 worth gift

Editorial

OCI received the BASEC product

certification in August 2009 and I

take this opportunity to congratulateall OCI employees. It is a matter of

great pride for every OCI-ITE. At the

same time it invites every one of

us to be more meticulous in every

process of the manufacturing of

our products. What is needed is

precision in our thoughts, approach

and in our everyday actions.

With such a certification being

increasingly adopted by companies

around the world, you cant afford

not to understand it. We have

set our manufacturing standards

HIGH, and it is your responsibility

to set it HIGHER. Remember my

colleagues, this certification does

not mean that we have received a

crown, rather I would say we have

got a responsibility to manufacture

top-notch products of the highest

quality standards. I wish from nowon we live with this philosophy in

our mind which runs through our

genes.

Nothing compares to the

effectiveness of quality certification

when it comes to improving a

companys operational efficiency,

rising its productivity, and lowering

its cost. It improves design process,

get products to market faster and

builds customer loyalty. Perhaps

the biggest but most significant

benefit of BASEC is its capacity to

develop market leadership, improves

your customers experience and

extremely powerful way to boost

OCIs competitiveness.

Message from VCMD

BASEC

Way back in 1994 OCI was the first Omani company that

was accredited with ISO 9000 certification.

Message

It accomplishes that by reducing

waste and inefficiency and by

designing the companys products

and internal process so that

customers get what they want

when they want it and when you

provide it, obviously you want to

ensure your customers satisfaction

more than your competitors do.

Another important factor, if you

are spending hundreds and million

of dollars on any project, you cant

afford to figure out process or

design inconsistencies late in thegame. It is incredibly effective in

discovering them on the drawing

board. One great reason why we

noticed that every time a business

done into quality not only did its

financial performance improves, so

did its industry benchmarks.

Our enhanced focus will be:

Consistency in services or

products

Complying delivery promise

improvement in customers

experience

improvement in internal process

cost improvements

wash out anything that mightcause waste, inefficiency, or a

customer to get annoyed with

your unpredictability.

repetitive tasks

avoid redundancy in data

generation

avoid duplication

avoid procrastination

This being a very important factor

of management strategy to find

the best practice, adopt them,

continually improve them. Best

practices are not only integral to

make strategies happen, they are

sustainable competitive advantage

if you are continually improving

them.

CoverStory

EHC Signs MOU with OCI

The Sultanate of Oman has witnessed rapid andcontinued growth in its economy since the beginning

of the Renaissance way back in 1970. Since then the

Government has taken various initiatives that facilitated

the Omani and the international business communities

to participate in the Sultanates growth.

The Electricity Holding Company (EHC) and its

subsidiary companies were established to ensure that

there is sufficient supply of electricity to meet the needs

of citizens and customers in Oman now and into thefuture. Some of the various subsidiary companies were

created to undertake the operation and development

of the regions electricity infrastructure in authorized

areas of the country.

This move allowed the national industries to grow

exponentially and Oman Cables Industry (OCI) is

an example of a company that demonstrated its

capabilities in the local and international markets which

includes South America, Australia, Europe, Asia Pacific,

GCC and MENA regions where a reputable customer

base has been established. Today Oman Cables is

a key contributor to the national non-oil Omani origin

exports.

EHC and OCI signed an MOU to facilitate the supply

of products to EHC subsidiary companies. The intent

of the MOU is for both parties to cooperate in the

design of the supply framework that has cost benefits

to electricity companies, delivers uninterrupted supply

of products, enables better inventory management,

fosters the exchange of technical know-how, thereby

creating a sustainable long-term development program

in the Sultanate of Oman.

On this occasion Mr. Karl Matacz, CEO of EHC said

that the MOU will establish the basis on which to enter

into term contracts for the supply of products from the

electrical supply industry to the EHC Group companies.

The term contracts will promote technology transfer

from suppliers to ensure that the transmission and

distribution network in Oman utilizes leading global

technologies.

Also Mr. Karl said that Oman Cables with its global

presence has the capability in both manufacturing

technology and logistic capabilities to meet the needs

of the electricity industry of the Country.

Mr. Hussain Salman Al Lawati, Vice Chairman and

Managing Director of Oman Cables said that throughEHC and its subsidiaries great support, Oman Cables

was able to become a true Global player. He added,

Oman Cables constantly endeavours to ensure their

manufacturing capabilities are industry leading edge to

ensure that Oman as country has the best technology

available.

He also said that such synergies will create opportunities

for nurturing local talent from both the institutions and

expose them to Global best practices and benefit fromexisting Oman Cables global strategic alliances.

Accidents can and do happen

and the aftermath can be both

traumatic and expensive to all

concerned.

In order to minimise the impact

of accidents on our staff and

visitors, to help prevent and

if necessary deal with fires it

was decided that some kind

of formal training of OCI staff

was necessary.

Obviously it would be

logistically impossible to train

everyone so a cross section

of around 80 intrepid fire

fighter trainees and 70 first

aiders were chosen from all

departments to be taught thenecessary skills.

The courses were undertaken

in Plant 2 meeting room and

largely went without a hitch

apart from people getting wet

whilst putting out practice fires

with hose pipes or bandaging

their colleagues very tightly.

Throughout the entire schedule

of courses staff were attentive

and keen to learn and they

even had a little fun along the

way.

Everyone who took part

can and should be proud

of themselves and those

members of staff who were

not involved can feel more

secure knowing that their lives

are in the safe hands of their

trained colleagues.

Well done everyone who

took part, what a team!

PVC Plant

Polyvinyl chloride or PVC was first

created by the German chemist

Eugen Baumann in 1872.

Eugen Baumann never

applied for a patent.

Polyvinyl chloride or PVC

was never patented until

1913 when German,

Friedrich Klatte invented

a new method of the

polymerization of vinyl

chloride using sunlight.

Friedrich Klatte became

the first inventor to

receive a patent for PVC.

However, no really useful

purpose for PVC was

found until Waldo Semon came along

and made PVC a better product.

In 1926, Waldo Lonsbury Semon

was working for the B.F. Goodrich

Company in the United States as

a researcher, when he invented

plasticized polyvinyl chloride.

Waldo Semon had been trying to

dehydrohalogenate polyvinyl chloride

in a high boiling solvent in order to

obtain an unsaturated polymer that

could bond rubber to metal.

PVC is a thermoplastic material, ie.

softened by heating and hardened by

cooling, some were used for special

applications during the Second

World War but it was not until the

early 1950s that PVC came into widespread use for electric cables.

It is an ideal medium for low

voltage cables, as it is relatively

cheap compared to other insulating

materials.

A disadvantage is its electrical

withstanding strength and hence it

is used mainly for

Low voltage cable insulation.

PVC insulated cables

cannot be utilised to the

extent of XLPE insulated

cables, as the PVC will

soften and deform if the

temperature is too high, a

temperature of 120C

governs the maximum

degree of deformation

permissible in the time/temperature

range required for circuit protection

to operate. (XLPE 250C).

The maximum operating

temperature of 70C is determined

by the thermal ageing characteristics

of the material. There are however

special compounds available with

higher operating temperatures (eg.

PVC 105C), but due to

increase in cost these

are only used forspecial applications.

PVC is widely used as

bedding and serving

materials on all types

of cables.

The basic unit that is repeated in

the PVC chain is:-

--CH2--CH

Cl

PVC cannot be extruded on its own

without the addition of materials

which aid processing, eg. plasticisers

and lubricants. Other additions

required to produce PVC for electrical

applications are fillers and stabilisers.

The fillers are not only diluents

(diluting agents) but increase the

resistance of the compound to hot

deformation.

The whole formulation is optimised for

mechanical and electrical properties,

ease of processing and cost. Other

additions can also be used to achieve

special properties. e.g. low smoke,

fire retardant, rodent proof, etc.PVC is applied to cable by an extrusion

process. Pellets (granules) of the

Pros and Cons of Solid versus Stranded Aluminum Conductors

The Team

Stranded Aluminum Conductor Solid Aluminum Conductor

1. Stranded Conductors are larger in size than Solid conductors.This results in a cable with a larger outer diameter and the usage

of more insulating, bedding, armouring and sheathing materials.

1. Solid Conductors are smaller in size than Stranded conductors. Thisresults in a cable with a smaller outer diameter and the usage of less

insulating, bedding, armouring and sheathing materials.2. Outer surface of a stranded conductor is not as smooth asa solid conductor, resulting in a higher electrical stress. This isgenerally not a problem for low voltage cables.

2. Outer surface of a solid conductor is smoother thsn strandedconductor, resulting in a lower electrical stress.

3. Stranded conductors are more flexible than solid conductors.The larger sizes are easier to install than cables with solidconductors.

3. Solid conductors are less flexible than stranded conductors. The largerthe conductor cross-sectional area the more rigid the cable becomesand the harder it is to install.

4. Stranded conductors are less susceptible to fatigue cracking. 4. Solid conductors are more susceptible to fatigue cracking.

5. No occurrence of Bullet nose breaks. 5. Susceptible to Bullet nose breaks.

6. Stranded conductors have a larger current rating than solidconductors due to its lower skin effect.

6. Solid conductors have a lower current rating than stranded conductorsdue to its higher skin effect.

7. Aluminum in stranded conductors is harder than in solid

conductors due to work hardening during the drawing process.

7. Aluminum in solid conductors is softer than in stranded conductors. This

is a disadvantage on small sizes of solid conductor cables as conductors canstretch during the manufacturing process, or if installed without due care.

8. A stranded conductor can be rounded with pliers to fit into acircular lug or ferrule.

8. A solid conductor requires special shaped lugs or ferrules.

Our value creators

The high number of bobbins used

in the building wire lines has always

been an issue as they have to move

from machine to machine. This gives

the floor an impression of disorder

and untidiness. When

the filled bobbins are

placed incorrectly, they

have the probabilities of

damaging the products

on the bobbins when

the flange of one bobbin

hits the product on theother bobbin when

they are moved around,

resulting in scrap being

generated.

Mr. Khalid Bharwani

suggested to store the

bobbins in rail channels

as shown in the picture.

This brought a change

in the appearance of

the factory floor, it

was neat and orderly.

Also damages to the

products on the bobbin

were eliminated.

The pictures below is

showing you the before and after

effect of this system.

The output on bunching machines

has been achieved the highest ever

in the month of July 2009 with

31040kms of bunched wires. This

is a straight 13% increase over the

2008 average and 2% increase over

the previous best of Oct 08.

Mr. Mohsin Nasser, who was the

kingpin, took it as a challenge and

drove his team members and

successfully set new record of

reaching highest production of

bunching wires.

Drum Stopper from XLPE ScrapIn the XLPE insulation line, during

the start up operation XLPE head

waste scrap was being generated.

This was about 7tons

as scrap disposed into

municipal waste bins.

Our operators from 150

Maillefe-15Ton line came

up with a suggestion to

convert this XLPE head

waste scrap into some

thing useful. They made

steel half round moulds

and colourful half round blocks to

be used as drum stoppers.

Earlier wooden blocks or any piece

of junk used as drum stoppers. The

wooden block would have a very

short usage life as they

would get damaged.

The XLPE drum stoppers

could be used many times

thus saving on usage of

wood and by this way a

wastage converted to a

useful item.
