Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced is a composite concentric-lay-stranded conductor. The conductors are manufactured in accordance with the requirements of the latest applicable issue of CSA C49.
Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced is a composite concentric-lay-stranded conductor. The conductors are manufactured in accordance with the requirements of the latest applicable issue of CSA C49.
Aluminum Conductors, Steel-Reinforced (ACSR) are extensively used for overhead distribution and transmission lines.
The steel strand or strands form the central core of the conductor, around which is stranded one or more layers of aluminum 1350-H19 wires. The steel core may consist of a single strand or a concentric stranded cable of 7, 19, 37, or more wires. Numerous combinations of aluminum and steel strands and layers are possible. The sizes and strandings listed on the following pages are common examples used in overhead lines.
