Overhead Bare Stranded Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced (ACSR)

Brief Description
ACSR conductor consists of a solid or stranded steel core surrounded by strands of aluminium (E.C. GRADE). ACSR CONDUCTOR is available in a wide range of steel varying from as low as 6% to as high as 40 %. The higher strength ACSR CONDUCTORS are used for river crossings, overhead ground wires, installations involving extra long spans etc.. Against any given resistance of conductor, ACSR CONDUCTORS may be manufactured for having a wide range of tensile strength as per requirement. The principal advantage of these conductors are high tensile strength and light weight with longer spans as well as with lesser supports. Due to the greater diameter of ACSR CONDUCTORS a much higher corona limit can be obtained causing big advantages on high as well as ex ra high voltage overhead lines.
Features
a.High tensile strength 
b.Long life 
c.Light in weight 
d.Suitable for high as well as extra high overhead voltage lines
 Construction
 Aluminum1350-H19 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 core or infusion of the complete cable with grease.
