ACSR Condor - 795MCM

Product Description:

Similar to All Aluminum Conductor, this conductor is centered by a steel galvanized central core.  The steel core can be varied to achieve the desired durability and conductor strength.  The outer layers of this conductor are made of aluminum, providing a corrosion-resistant, long-lasting product.  Application of grease to the core or to the entire cable can further improve the cable’s resistance to corrosion.

Applications:

Like AAC, ACSR is primarily used as an overhead transmission cable and can also be used for primary and secondary distribution.  This conductor is typically preferred in a heavy construction area because of its reinforced steel core.  Although it is heavier than AAC, it can be moved in and out of a construction area relatively easily.  This cable is also useful in areas with high winds or frequent storms.

Specifications:

In accordance with specifications set forth by the American Society for Testing and Materials:

  • This product is composed of a variety of aluminum conductors.  B-230, 231, and 232.
  • Steel reinforced core is coated with B-341 aluminum, B-498 Zinc, and B-802 Zinc-5% Misch Metal alloy.

Construction:

  • Conductor

-           ACSR is constructed with aluminum alloy 1350-H19

  • Stranding

-           Wires are concentrically stranded.

  • Reinforcement

-           A core consisting of class A, B, or C galvanized steel lays in the center of the cable.  Aluminum coating (AZ) or aluminum-clad (AW) options are available to enhance the core’s longevity.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Ask a Question
  • Hi,I would like to inquire your max expected elongation operating temp of 15.5 and 80 degree celcius a a on #795 ACSR Condor

    The 795 ACSR is a reliable condor with centered by a steel galvanized central core.  The steel core can be varied to achieve the desired durability and conductor strength. ACSR is primarily used as an overhead transmission cable and can also be used for primary and secondary distribution. It allows an elongation of up to 5% under the allowable working temperatures.
