Scope of application

Application

The AACSR with high strength are used in river crossing conductors, transmission of power through over head ground wires on long span installations against any given resistance of conductor. It can be used as large span conductor, heavy ice wire or overhead communications wire, ground wire. Temperature for continuous use can be up to 90 ℃. Temperature of heat-resistant AACSR can be up to 150 ℃ and above. It has high current carrying capacity.

Features

All Aluminium Allloy Conductors Steel Reinforced (AACSR) is a concentrically stranded conductor composed of one or more layers of Aluminium-Magnesium-Silicon alloy wire stranded over a high-strength zinc coated (galvanized) steel core. AACSR Conductors have approx. 40% to 60% more strength than comparable standard ACSR with only 8 to 10% decrease in conductivity.

Offers optimal strength for line design

Improved strength to weight ratio

Ideal for extra long spans and heavy load conditions

Excellent resistance to corrosion

CONSTRUCTION

Conductor

Aluminum 6201 Wires, concentrically stranded over a central wire/core of Galvanized steel.

Steel part:

Zinc- coated steel wires, one or multi-wires concentric stranded

Aluminium alloy part:

Aluminium alloy wires, concentric stranded

AACSR is a concentrically stranded conductor composed of one or more layers of 6201 -T81 aluminum alloy wire stranded with a high-strength coated steel core. The core may be single wire or stranded depending on the size. The proportions of aluminum alloy and steel can be varied to obtain the relation between current carrying capacity and mechanical strength best suited to each application. Core wire for AACSR is available with Class A, B or C-galvanized; "aluminized" (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.
