2000

  • The Viakon Coaxial Cables Plant begins operations.

2004

  • Starts the 115 KV cable production, first in Latin America with conductor 800mm2, stretches 800 meters and triple extruded XLPE.
  • This cable is used by the Federal Commission of Electricity in the Laguna II project in the Laguna District (Torreon-Gomez Palacio).

2005

  • In April, 2005 the electrification was carried out on the most important project for underground high voltage power distribution in the history of the Comision Federal de Electricidad and in Mexico: the Laguna II Central de Ciclo Combinado.
  • Viakon participated as the first Mexican company to produce 115 kV cables with a conductive section of 800 mm of copper, in 800 meter lineal sections, thereby offering greater reliability with a smaller number of potential failure points.

2006

  • In 2006, exactly upon completing its first 50 years of operations, Viakon continues to consolidate their technological leadership position in the high voltage cables market in Mexico, on becoming the first Mexican manufacturer to develop and produce 115 kV power cables with a conductive section of 2,000 mm2 of copper, in 620 meter lineal sections; these were installed in an important project for Comisión Federal de Electricidad known as “Pidiregas 128 LST NOINE”, which involved the construction of substations as well as the underground 115 kV connections in Monterrey and Chihuahua.
