Standard
Product ASTM B232
Aluminum is favored for electrical conductors because of its superior electrical properties. Yet, in most transmission and distribution lines, aluminum conductors need added mechanical support, commonly provided by galvanized steel wires in ACSR cores.
Aluminum is favored for electrical conductors because of its superior electrical properties. Yet, in most transmission and distribution lines, aluminum conductors need added mechanical support, commonly provided by galvanized steel wires in ACSR cores.
Construction
ACSR conductors are concentrically stranded, with hard-drawn 1350-H19 aluminum wires forming one or more layers around a galvanized steel core. The core’s form (single wire or stranded) depends on size, and the steel wire uses Class A or B galvanization for corrosion protection. By addressing the electrical and mechanical strength needs of transmission/distribution lines, ACSR enables appropriate designs by varying the amounts of aluminum and galvanized steel wires.
Applications
Routinely utilized as bare cable in overhead transmission lines, and also operates as primary and secondary bare cable for distribution networks.

Instrumentation Cables—XLPE Insulated, Overall Screened ,Unarmoured PVC Sheathed Cables(CU/XLPE/OSCR/PVC)
Instrumentation cables come in twisted pairs, triads, and quads, depending on the customer’s applications; twisting reduces any electromagnetic interference by reducing the chances of electrical voltages and currents being induced in the conductor. Individual and overall screening are also applied in instrumentation cables to optimize the signal transferred and further reduce any electromagnetic interference. Screening of pairs, triads, or quads also includes a drain wire earthed to the ground, which ensures a noise-free signal transmission. Depending on the application, instrumentation cables can be insulated with PVC or XLPE; the cables can be armoured or unarmoured. The sheathing materials can be of PVC, LSZH, or PE. The cables can have additional flame retardant or flame retardant properties, and they can be manufactured with special protections such as lead sheaths, or DRYLAM or AIRBAG technology.
