3. Conductor Anti-Theft (Kwena)

It is an aluminum alloy conductor compared to Copper (Cu) with the wide advantages it presents, such as greater resistance
to saline environments; greater lightness; smaller deflection, higher conductivity for the same cross section as copper; similar
mechanical resistance and lower production cost compared to the cost of aluminum conductors with a steel core. The use of
Al alloy as an earth conductor is an alternative solution that aims to mitigate the theft of AL and Copper while respecting the
ratio of the two sections.

Aluminum Alloy – is nothing more or less than a compound/mixture of AL with other metals as shown in the figure below.

For the electricity sector, it uses aluminum alloy made from Aluminum, Magnesium and Silicon . In this context, for the
transport and distribution of electrical energy, cables and conductors are manufactured instead of traditional aluminum cables
with a steel core.

Designation Characteristics
Anti-theft conductor for grounding The aluminum alloy made with a base of
Aluminum, Magnesium and Silicon

The electrical conductivity of the anti-theft conductor must be equivalent to a 35 mm2 copper conductor. The driver’s
characteristics must be very clear, such as:
- Nominal section;
- Electrical conductivity;
- Impedance;
- Mechanical resistance;

Competitors must present 1m of the driver as a sample
