Shaped Wire Compact
Concentric-Lay-Stranded
Aluminum Conductor,
Steel-Reinforced(ACSR/TW)
is designed for use
as a bare overhead
conductor. There are
two designs of ACSR/TW.
One design gives an
equal area of
aluminum when
compared to the
standard ACSR
conductor sizes. The
other design gives
an overall outside
diameter equal to
standard ACSR
conductor sizes. Use
of this conductor in
the equal area
design allows equal
Ampacity in a
smaller diameter
conductor when
compared with
standard ACSR
conductor. Use of
this conductor in
the equal diameter
design allows more
ampacity in an equal
diameter conductor
when compared with
standard ACSR
conductor. |
