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 corer or infusion
of the complete cable with grease.

1. Resistance
is calculated using ASTM standard increments of stranding, and metal conductivity
of 61.2% IACS for EC (1350), and 8% IACS for steel. AC (60Hz) resistance
includes current dependent hysteresis loss factor for 1 and 3 layer construction.
2. Current
ratings are based on 75°C conductor temperature, 25°C ambient, 2ft/s wind,
96/watts/sq. foot sun, .05 coefficients of emissivity and absorption.
