Aluminum Alloy Conductor Steel Reinforced (AACSR) ASTM B711

Application :
Aluminum Alloy Conductor Steel Reinforced is widely used in power transmission lines with various voltage levels.It can be used as large span conductor,heavy ice wire or overhead communications wire,ground wire.The temperature for continuous use can be up to 90°C,heat-resistance AACSR can be up to 150°C and above.It has high current carrying capacity,variable steel core stranding enables the designed strength to be achieved without sacrificing ampacity.

Standards :

ASTM B711

Construction :
AACSR is a concentrically stranded conductor composed of one or more layers of Aluminium -Magnesium -Silicon Alloy wire stranded around a high strength coated steel core. The core can be of either single wire or stranded multi wire. AACSR is available with steel core of Class A, B or C galvanizing or Aluminium clad (AW). Additional corrosion protection is available through the application of grease to the core or infusion of the complete cable with grease.
