KCMIL 400 500 Aluminium Conductor Cable AA8000 series Aluminum Alloy conductor 

Application

Aluminum alloy cables (e.g., AA-8000 series per ASTM B800) are widely used in power distribution due to their lightweight, cost-effectiveness, and corrosion resistance. Key applications include:

1. Power Transmission & Distribution

Building Wiring: Replace copper in residential/commercial circuits (NEC & IEC compliant).

Utility Grids: Overhead lines and underground feeders (AA-1350/AA-8030 alloys).

Renewable Energy: Solar/Wind farm collection systems (flexible, oxidation-resistant).

2. Industrial & Infrastructure

Substations: Busbars and transformer connections.

Transportation: Metro/railway traction power (lightweight reduces load).

Temporary Power: Construction sites (easy handling).

       Advantage

Cost Savings: ~40% lighter & cheaper than copper (similar ampacity with larger sizes).
Durability: Superior creep/thermal performance vs. pure aluminum.
Compliance: Meets ASTM B800/IEC 62004 for mechanical/electrical properties.

Common Types: AA-8030 (IEC), AA-8176 (UL), AA-1350 (overhead lines).
