This conductor is also known as aluminium stranded conductor. This conductor is


manufactured from electrolytically refined (E.C.GRADE) aluminium, having purity of
minimum 99.5%. This conductor is used mainly in urban areas and the spacing is short
and the supports are close. All aluminium conductors are made up of one or more
strands of aluminium wire depending on the end usage. These conductors are also used
extensively in coastal areas because it has a very high degree of corrosion resistance.

This conductor consists of a solid or stranded steel core surrounded by strands of


aluminium (E.C. GRADE). ACSR CONDUCTOR is available in a wide range of steel
varying from as low as 6% to as high as 40 %. The
higher strength ACSR CONDUCTORS are used for river crossings, overhead ground
wires, installations involving extra long spans etc.. against any given resistance of
conductor, ACSR conductor may be manufactured for having a wide range of tensile
strength as per requirement. The principal advantage of these conductors are high tensile
strength and light weight with longer spans as well as with lesser supports. Due to the
greater diameter of ACSR CONDUCTORS a much higher corona limit can be obtained
causing big advantages on high as well as extra high voltage overhead lines.

This conductor is made from aluminium-magnesium-silicon alloy of high electrical
conductivity containing enough magnesium silicide to give it better mechanical properties
after treatment. These conductors are generally made out of aluminium alloy 6201. AAAC
CONDUCTOR has a better corrosion resistance and better strength to weight ratio and
improved electrical conductivity than ACSR CONDUCTOR on equal diameter basis.


Aluminium conductors are manufactured as per ISI in different sizes for transmission & distribution -
