 Overhead Line AAC ACSR AAAC AACSR ACAR Aluminum Conductor Power Cable  

 

1. ACSR Conductor Application

 

ACSR Conductor (aluminum conductor steel reinforced) is used as bare overhead transmission conductor and as primary and secondary distribution conductor and messenger support. ACSR offers strength for line design. Variable steel core stranding enables desired strength achieved without sacrificing ampacity.

  

2. ACSR Conductor Specification

 

ACSR conductor meets or exceeds the following ASTM specifications

 

1.B230 Aluminum 1350-H19 Wire for Electrical Purposes.

2.B232 Concentric-Lay-Stranded Aluminum Conductors, Coated-Steel Reinforced (ACSR conductor).

3.B498 Zinc-Coated (Galvanized) Steel Core Wire for Use in Overhead Electrical Conductors.

4.B500 Metallic Coated Stranded Steel Core for Use in Overhead Electrical Conductors.  

5.Class A core stranding is also available in zinc-5% aluminum-mischmetal alloy coating.

6.For aluminum-clad (AW) ACSR conductor, please refer to the ACSR/AW catalog sheet

7.Additional corrosion protection is available through the application of grease to the core or infusion of the complete cable with grease.

8.ACSR conductor is also available in non-specular.

 

3. ACSR Conductor ASTM B 232 Standard

 

ACSR Conductor( aluminum conductor steel reinforced) meets or exceeds the following ASTM standard
