Construction:

Conductor:Conductors are stranded, compressed 1350-H19 aluminum
Messenger:ACSR Neutral
Insulation:Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE)

Applications and Features:

Used to supply power, usually from a pole-mounted transformer, to the user's service head where connection to the service entrance cable is made. To be used at voltages of 600 volts phase-to-phase or less and at conductor temperatures 75°C for Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE) insulated conductors.

Specifications:

ASTM B230 Aluminum, 1350-H19 Wire for Electrical Purposes

ASTM B231 Standard Specification for Concentric-Lay-Stranded Aluminum 1350 Conductors

ASTM B400 Standard Specification for Compact Round Concentric-Lay-Stranded, Aluminum 1350 Conductors

ASTM B901 Standard Specification for Compressed Round Stranded Aluminum Conductors Using Single Input Wire Construction. (The number of strands for both phase and neutral may differ)

All dimensions are nominal and subject to normal manufacturing tolerances

^ Phase conductors have 0, 1, or 2 ribs for identification

Table 2 – Electrical and Engineering Data

Code Word	Phase Cond. Size	Neutral Rated Breaking Strength	DC Resistance @ 25°C	AC Resistance @ 75°C	Inductive Reactance @ 60Hz	GMR	Allowable Ampacity In Air 90°C
	AWG/Kcmil	lb	Ω/1000ft	Ω/1000ft	Ω/1000ft	ft	Amp
Palomino	2	2850	0.266	0.320	0.045	0.008	135 / 150

Notes:
1. DC resistances include a 1% length factor for plexing.
2. Inductive reactance assumes the neutral is carrying current.
3. Phase conductors assumed to be reverse lay stranded, compressed construction.
4. Phase spacing assumes cables are touching.
5. Resistances shown are for the phase conductor only.
6. Ampacity based on conductor temperature of 75°; ambient temperature of 40°C; emissivity 0.9; 2 ft./sec. wind in sun.
