2000 MCM Cowslip AAC All Aluminum Bare Conductor Cable
The 2000 MCM Cowslip AAC Cable represents premium All Aluminum Conductor technology for overhead power applications. Built with 91 strands of high-conductivity 1350-H19 aluminum, this bare conductor delivers an optimal balance of electrical efficiency and mechanical robustness. With a 1.631-inch diameter, 32,200 lbs breaking strength, and 1518 amps ampacity, the Cowslip AAC offers low DC resistance of 0.00864 ohms per 1000 ft at 20°C and a weight of 1877 lbs per 1000 ft. This design minimizes sag while providing excellent corrosion resistance for extended outdoor service. Manufactured to meet ASTM B-230 and B-231 standards, the 2000 MCM Cowslip AAC Cable undergoes extensive quality testing from raw materials through finished product. It is the ideal solution for new installations and upgrades in transmission and distribution systems that demand lightweight, high-conductivity bare aluminum conductors.
