ACS-Aluminum-Clad Steel Conductor

Bare concentric-lay-stranded conductors made from bare, hard-drawn, round, aluminum clad steel wires for general use of electrical purposes. Conductors are classified as follows: 14 % conductivity, 20.3 % conductivity, 27 % conductivity, 35 % conductivity, 40 % conductivity.

APPLICATION
Due to its excellent characteristics, this product is used extensively in the cable industry for the manufacturing of Optical Ground Wire (OPGW), conventional stranded earth wired and steel reinforced cores for phases conductors, all to be used in overheads lines. Also, it can be used in alternative applications an helical hardware for overhead lines or those where the resistance to the corrosion is an important factor.
