Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced ACSR Conductor for Transmission Line

ACSR (aluminum conductor steel reinforced) has a long service record because of its economy, dependability, and strength to weight ratio. The combined light weight and high conductivity of aluminum with strength of the steel core enables higher tensions, less sag, and longer spans than any alternative.





Conductor:

A solid or concentric stranded central steel core is surrounded by one or more layers of concentric stranded aluminum alloy ***0. The wire is protected from corrosion with a zinc coating.

 The wire or wires which form the core, are made of galvanized steel and the external layer or layers, are of aluminium. Galvanized steel core consist normally of 1, 7 or *9 wires. The diameters of steel and aluminium wires can be the same, or different.

By varying the relative proportions of aluminium and steel, the required characteristics for any particular application can be reached. A higher U. T. S. Can be obtained, by increasing steel content, and a higher current carrying capacity by increasing aluminium content.
