AACSR/AC  Aluminum Alloy Conductor Aluminum Clad Steel Reinforced IEC 61089

Application

AACSR/AC (Aluminum Alloy Conductor Aluminum Clad Steel Reinforced) is widely used for overhead power transmission and distribution. It offers high tensile strength, excellent corrosion resistance, and reliable conductivity, making it ideal for long-span lines, coastal areas, and harsh environmental conditions. This conductor ensures stable and efficient power transmission in medium and high voltage networks.

Features:

• Aluminum alloy strands for improved strength and conductivity
• Aluminum-clad steel core for enhanced tensile performance
• Excellent resistance to corrosion, suitable for coastal and polluted environments
• For long-span installations and heavy load conditions

Typical Use:

• Medium and high voltage overhead lines
• River crossings and long-span routes
• Coastal, humid, and industrial areas

Standards:

• ASTM B711 – Aluminum Alloy Steel Reinforced (AACSR)
• ASTM B502 – Aluminum-Clad Steel Core Wire
• IEC 61089 – Round Wire Concentric Lay Overhead Electrical Conductors

Specification:

AACSR/AW-AACSR/AC/1120 AS 3607

FAQ

1. What is AACSR/AC conductor?
AACSR/AC (Aluminum Alloy Conductor Aluminum Clad Steel Reinforced) is an overhead conductor made of aluminum alloy strands with an aluminum-clad steel core, designed for high strength and corrosion resistance in power transmission.

2. What are the main advantages of AACSR/AC conductor?
AACSR/AC offers high tensile strength, excellent corrosion resistance, good conductivity, and improved sag performance, making it suitable for long-span and harsh environment applications.

3.How does AACSR/AC differ from ACSR conductor?
Compared to ACSR, AACSR/AC uses aluminum alloy instead of pure aluminum and aluminum-clad steel instead of galvanized steel, providing better corrosion resistance and higher strength, especially in aggressive environments.

4. What standards does AACSR/AC comply with?
AACSR/AC conductor is typically manufactured according to ASTM B711, ASTM B502, and IEC 61089, depending on project requirements.
