ACSS Conductor

ACSS Conductor, a non-homogenous conductor, is a concentric-lay stranded conductor made from round annealed aluminum 1350-O wires and round coated steel core wire(s). Steel core wires are protected from corrosion by selecting an appropriate coating of the wire like galvanizing, mischmetal alloy coating or aluminum clad. The type of coating is selected to suit the environment to which the conductor is exposed and operating temperature of the conductor. Standard, High, Extra and Ultra High Strength steel are also available. ACSS conductors are prone to resist the effects of aeolian vibration due to very little or no mechanical load on the annealed aluminum wires.

Features

ACSS conductors have the following features:

  • Work  at High Temperature upto 250°C  without any loss of Strength 
  • Improved conductivity
  • Better self damping property
  • Low sag at high temperature
  • High current carrying capacity

Applicable Specification

ACSS conductors are manufactured by Gupta Power in accordance to ASTM B 856 & Other Standard
