Construction:

  1. 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
  2. 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

Specifications:

  • ASTM B230 Aluminum, 1350-H19 Wire for Electrical Purposes
  • ASTM B231 Standard Specification for Concentric-Lay-Stranded Aluminum 1350 Conductors
  • ASTM B398 Standard Specification for Aluminum-Alloy 6201-T81 and 6201-T83 Wire for Electrical Purposes
  • ASTM B399 Standard Specification for Concentric-Lay-Stranded, Aluminum 1350 Conductors
  • ICEA S-70-547 Weather Resistant Polyethylene Covers Conductors
