2/0 Grullo Aluminum Conductor Quadruplex Overhead Service Drop Cable

2/0 Grullo Aluminum Conductor Quadruplex Overhead Service Drop Cable is a high-performance solution for delivering three-phase electrical power from pole-mounted transformers to residential or commercial service entrances. It is specifically engineered for 600-volt phase-to-phase operations and supports conductor temperatures up to 90°C with cross-linked polyethylene (XLP) insulation, or 75°C when using standard polyethylene (PE) insulation. This cable consists of three phase conductors made from 1350-H19 aluminum, either stranded or compressed, and a bare ACSR (Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced) neutral messenger. Alternate messenger materials include AAC or 6201 alloy for different mechanical load and corrosion resistance preferences. With rugged black XLP insulation, this quadruplex cable provides exceptional weather resistance, UV protection, and thermal endurance, making it ideal for overhead outdoor installations in a wide variety of environments.

2/0 Grullo Aluminum Conductor Quadruplex Service Drop Cable Material Test

Raw Material Test

Raw material testing for the 2/0 Grullo Quadruplex Service Drop Cable begins with aluminum wire inspection for purity, conductivity, and elongation per ASTM standards. Phase and messenger strands are checked for diameter uniformity and surface quality. XLPE/PE insulation compounds undergo melt flow index, density, carbon black content (UV protection), and thermal aging tests via OIT and DSC analysis. Samples face contamination screening and environmental stress cracking. The step-by-step process: incoming batch verification, sampling protocol, chemical composition analysis via spectrometry, mechanical property testing (before/after aging), electrical resistivity measurement, and material approval decision. Only qualified materials proceed, ensuring the 2/0 Grullo Quadruplex Service Drop Cable's conductor integrity, insulation durability, messenger strength.

2/0 Grullo Aluminum Conductor Quadruplex Service Drop Cable  Process inspection

Process inspection

The 2/0 Grullo Quadruplex Service Drop Cable process inspection ensures consistent quality. Conductor stranding is monitored for lay length, compactness, and defects using optical gauges. Insulation extrusion controls thickness uniformity and concentricity with online laser systems. Quadruplex assembly verifies twisting tension, phase symmetry, and messenger integration. Spark testing detects pinholes in real time. Dimensional accuracy, ovality, and phase identification are checked continuously. Key steps: material pre-drying confirmation, extrusion parameter logging (temperature, speed), intermediate wall thickness sampling, twisting tension monitoring, defect marking/removal, and post-process cooling control.

2/0 Grullo Aluminum Conductor Quadruplex Service Drop Cable  Finished Product

Finished Product

The finished 2/0 Grullo Quadruplex Service Drop Cable undergoes thorough testing for compliance. Routine tests include conductor resistance, insulation thickness, messenger breaking strength, high voltage spark test, and overall tensile load. Mechanical tests cover elongation, bending, and impact resistance. Weathering via UV aging and heat distortion is assessed. The process steps: reel sampling, preparation with terminations, gradual load/voltage application, timed exposure to heat/UV, hold phase monitoring, post-test dimensional/electrical re-measurement, and visual inspection for defects. Additional checks include sag-tension verification, phase balance, and marking durability. Only cables passing all criteria are approved, confirming the 2/0 Grullo Quadruplex Service Drop Cable's electrical safety, mechanical strength, weather endurance, and reliable performance.

Application

2/0 Grullo Quadruplex Service Drop Cable is widely used for overhead three-phase service drops to homes, apartments, small commercial buildings, and rural properties. Ideal for delivering power from utility poles to service entrances requiring durable, self-supporting aerial connections up to 600V.

FAQ From Customers

What are the advantages of power cables and overhead lines?
(1) Reliable operation, because it is installed in a hidden place such as underground, it is less damaged by external forces, has less chance of failure, and the power supply is safe, and it will not cause harm to people;
(2) The maintenance workload is small and frequent inspections are not required;
(3) No need to erect towers;
(4) Help improve power factor.
Which aspects should be considered when choosing the cross section of a power cable?
(1) The long-term allowable working current of the cable;
(2) Thermal stability once short circuited;
(3) The voltage drop on the line cannot exceed the allowable working range.
What are the measures for cable fire prevention?
(1) Use flame-retardant cables;
(2) Use fireproof cable tray;
(3) Use fireproof paint;
(4) Fire partition walls and fire baffles are installed at cable tunnels, mezzanine exits, etc.;
(5) Overhead cables should avoid oil pipelines and explosion-proof doors, otherwise local pipes or heat insulation and fire prevention measures should be taken.
What should be paid attention to during the transportation and handling of cables?
(1) During transportation, loading and unloading, cables and cable reels should not be damaged. It is strictly forbidden to push the cable reels directly from the vehicle. Generally, cables should not be transported and stored flat.
(2) Before transporting or rolling the cable reel, ensure that the cable reel is firm, the cable is wound tightly, the oil pipe between the oil-filled cable and the pressure oil tank should be fixed without damage, the pressure oil tank should be firm, and the pressure indication should meet the requirements.
What inspections should be carried out for the acceptance of cable lines?
(1) The cable specifications should meet the regulations, the arrangement should be neat, no damage, and the signs should be complete, correct and clear;
(2) The fixed bending radius of the cable, the related distance and the wiring of the metal sheath of the single-core power cable should meet the requirements;
(3) The cable terminal and the middle head should not leak oil, and the installation should be firm. The oil pressure of the oil-filled cable and the meter setting should meet the requirements;
(4) Good grounding;
(5) The color of the cable terminal is correct, and the metal parts such as the bracket are completely painted;
(6) There should be no debris in the cable trench, tunnel, and bridge, and the cover should be complete.
