Portfolio overview

NKT HV Cables AB has been granted 25 US utility patents between 2020 and 2025, placing NKT HV Cables AB at #12,139 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 11 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.5 claims per patent with primary concentration in H01B (CABLES; CONDUCTORS; INSULATORS; SELECTION OF MATERIALS FOR THEIR CONDUCTIVE, INSULATING OR DIELECTRIC PROPERTIES). As a Foreign Corporation, NKT HV Cables AB is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, NKT sits between Nanchang O-film TECH. Co., Ltd. (25 patents, rank #12,129) and National Coupling Company, Inc. (25 patents, rank #12,137) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 40.6/100 blends portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Grant cadence records the difference between two grant-year windows. Historical data spans 2020 through 2025, with 25 total grants over that period. Grant timing can lag the related application by years, so this comparison does not establish current R&D spending, strategic intent, or a company’s application activity. The Foreign Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.

Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. NKT HV Cables AB's 15.5 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 11 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
