Applications :
Used as bare overhead transmission cable and as primary and secondary distribution cable. ACSR offers optimal strength for line design. Variable steel core stranding enables desired strength to be achieved without sacrificing ampacity.
Construction :
Aluminum alloy 1350-H-19 wires, concentrically stranded about a steel core. Core wire for ACSR is available with class A, B, or C galvanizing « aluminized » aluminum coated (AZ); or aluminum-clad(AW). Additional corrosion protection is available through the application of grease to the core or infusion of the complete cable with grease.
Specifications :
ACSR bare
conductor meets or exceeds the following ASTM specifications :
·
B-230
Aluminum Wire, 1350-H19 for Electrical Purposes.
