Construction:

Conductor:Stranded compressed aluminum steel reinforced ACSR
Insulation:Black Crosslinked Polyethylene (XLPE)

Applications and Features:

Aluminum alloy 1350-H19 concentrically stranded steel reinforced ACSR. 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
