APPLICATION:
AAAC – All Aluminum Alloy Conductor is used for primary and secondary overhead transmission and distribution services. This has been designed utilizing a high-strength aluminum alloy to achieve a high strength-to-weight ratio and better sag characteristic. The conductor has a higher resistance to corrosion than ACSR.
CONDUCTOR:
Stranded 6201-T81 high strength aluminum conductors, conforming to ASTM specifications B399 are concentriclay-stranded, similar in construction and appearance to 1350 aluminum alloy grade aluminum conductors, and has a greater resistance to abrasion than conductors of 1350 aluminum alloy
CONDUCTOR STRANDING:
37 Strands
INDIVIDUAL STRAND DIAMETER:
0.1583 in.
CROSS SECTIONAL AREA:
0.7282 Sq. in.
RATED BREAKING STRENGTH:
30,500 lbs.
RESISTANCE (Ohms/kft):
DC @ 20ºC - 0.0217
AC @ 75ºC - 0.0263
AMP RATING:
908 Amps
EQUIVALENT ACSR:
795.0 MCM Drake (26/7 Stranding)
All values are nominal and subject to correction. * Current ratings are based on 75ºC conductor temperature, 25ºC ambient, 2ft/s wind, in sun, .05 coefficients of emissivity and absorption. ** Resistance is calculated using ASTM standard increments of stranding and metal conductivity of 52.5% IACS, AC resistance at 60 Hz.
