Application

Duplex Service Drop cable is designed to deliver single-phase power from an overhead utility line to a user’s service location. It is primarily used for 120-volt overhead service applications. Common uses include powering street lights, outdoor lighting, and providing temporary electrical service for construction sites. This cable is intended for use in circuits with voltages of 600 volts or less.

Description

This cable, manufactured by Gongniu Cable, is a type of overhead electrical service wire. It has a duplex configuration, which means it consists of two conductors twisted together. One conductor is the phase conductor, made of stranded 1350-H19 aluminum, which is covered by a protective insulation. The second conductor is a bare neutral messenger, which provides support for the cable. The neutral conductor is typically made from aluminum alloy (AAAC), all-aluminum (AAC), or aluminum conductor steel-reinforced (ACSR). Gongniu Cable uses a durable black polyethylene or cross-linked polyethylene (XLP) for insulation, which protects against weather damage. This simple and effective design ensures reliable power delivery.
