ACSR-Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced

Aluminium Conductor Steel Reinforced (ACSR) is concentrically stranded conductor with one or more layers of hard drawn aluminium wire on galvanized steel wire core. The core can be single wire or stranded depending on the size. Additional corrosion protection is available through the application of grease to the core or infusion of the complete cable with grease.

APPLICATION
Used as bare overhead transmission conductor and as primary and secondary distribution conductor and messenger support. ACSR offers optimal strength for line design. Variable steel core stranding enables desired strength to be achieved without sacrificing ampacity.
