ACSR/AW
ACSR/AW Overhead line conductor
- Aluminium Conductor
- Aluminium-Clad Steel Reinforced
- Bare
ACSR/AWÂ used as bare overhead transmission and as primary and secondary distribution cable. ACSR/AW offers strength characteristics similar to ACSR, along with slightly greater ampacity and resistance to corrosion due to aluminium-cladding of the steel core wires.
Bare conductor meets or exceeds the following ASTM specifications:
- B230 Aluminium 1350-H19 Wire for Electrical Purposes
- B502 Aluminium-Clad Steel Core Wire for Use in Overhead Electrical Aluminium Conductors.
- B549 Concentric-Lay Stranded Aluminium Conductors, Aluminium-Clad Steel Reinforced for Use in Overhead Electrical Conductors.
