Construction:

Conductor:Solid 1350-H19 aluminum per ASTM B230, compressed stranded 1350-H19 aluminum per ASTM B230 and B231, or concentrically stranded 6201-T81 aluminum-alloy per ASTM B398 and B399
Covering:Black Crosslinked Polyethylene (XLPE)

Applications and Features:

Aluminum alloy 1350-H19 or 6201-T81 concentrically stranded. Covered with crosslinked polyethylene (XLP). Used primarily for, but not limited to, overhead secondary distribution lines. Installed on insulators, otherwise treated as a bare conductor. Crosslinked covered line wires have the below temperature ratings:

• Normal Service temperature of 90ºC
• Emergency Overload of 130ºC
• Short Circuit temperature of 250ºC
