About Us
Evolution of PLP
PLP is an innovative supplier of infrastructure solutions led by three visionary leaders since its founding, Thomas F. Peterson, Jon R. Ruhlman and Robert G. Ruhlman. In 1947, Thomas F. Pedersen founded PLP when he saw the need for a product that did not yet exist. The success of his ground-breaking mechanically formed helical design, a sturdier conductor for transmission lines, was nearly thwarted by his former employer who passed on his idea, thinking it was unnecessary.
Despite the rejection, Petersen pressed on and began licensing his helical design to several companies. Ironically, one of those companies began selling Petersen’s products to his former employer. The PREFORMED™ Armor Rod, as it would officially be named, became the flagship product of what is a highly
recognised international company that offers an array of innovative critical infrastructure solutions.
PLP NZ (Former Electropar Limited)
PLP NZ (former Electropar Limited) was acquired in 2010
and added another dimension to PLP’s global offerings in
substation solutions. PLP NZ designs and manufactures
the majority of substation solutions in Australia and New
Zealand and was awarded a series of critical infrastructure
projects for grid interconnection between NSW, SA and
VIC along with the largest wind farm to be constructed
in Australia, Golden Plains near Ballarat, Victoria. PLP
offers a wide range of engineering and product solutions
for overhead and underground in electricity distribution
networks, transmission, telecommunications and wide
range of industrial and marine solutions.
