Aluminum Conductor Overhead Duplex, Triplex and Quadruplex Cable:

Aluminum overhead cables are used outdoors in distribution facilities. They carry the power from the utility lines to the buildings through the weatherhead. Based on this particular function, the cables are also described as service drop cables. Aluminum overhead cables include duplex, triplex, and quadruplex varieties. Duplex cables are used in single-phase power lines, whereas quadruplex cables are used in the three-phase power lines. Triplex cables are exclusively used to carry power from the utility lines to customers.
Aluminum conductor cables are made of soft 1350-H19 aluminum series. They are insulated with an extruded thermoplastic polyethylene or cross-linked polyethylene for protection from problematic outdoor environmental conditions. The cables are designed with an operational temperature of up to 75 degrees and a voltage rating of 600 volts.

Standard:

ASTM B-230: Aluminum 1350-H19 wire for electrical purposes.
ASTM B-231: Concentric lay stranded aluminum 1350 conductors.
ICEA S-76-474: Neutral supported power cable assemblies with weather resistant extruded insulation rated at 600V.

Benefits of Aluminum Overhead Electrical Wires:

Aluminum overhead cables are most often used in overhead power lines because they are lightweight and relatively cheap. Aluminum has high conductivity and low density, which allows these overhead service drop cables to carry current with minimal losses. Aluminum service drop wires are cost-efficient, especially in high-tension lines that stretch for long distances.

Construction:

Covered Line Wire, Duplex, Triplex or Quadruplex Service Drop Available
Phase conductors twisted around a bare aluminum alloy or ACSR neutral conductor.
Conductors: Aluminum alloy 1350-H19 wire.
Insulation: Black thermoset cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE).
Neutral: Bare aluminum alloy or ACSR
