29808, ACSR Aluminum Conductor- Steel Reinforced

Construction Conductor:

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.

Application:

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.

Standards:

ASTM B-230 (Aluminum wire, 1350-H19 for electrical purposes).
ASTM B-231 (Aluminum conductors, Concentric-lay-stranded).
ASTM B-232 (Aluminum conductors, Concentric-lay-stranded, Coated steel reinforced [ACSR]).
ASTM B-341 (Aluminum-coated steel core wire for aluminum conductors, Steel reinforced [ACSR/AZ]).
ASTM B-498 (Zinc-coated steel core wire for aluminum conductors, steel reinforced [ACSR/AZ]).
ASTM B-500 (Zinc-coated and aluminum coated stranded steel core for aluminum conductors, steel reinforced [ACSR]).
