What is an ACAR conductor?

asva

Constric-lay stranded cable ACAR is composed of strands of aluminum alloy 6201 and aluminum 1350-H19. In certain structures, the 6201 Alloy might be dispersed between the layers of 1350 Aluminum, while normally the 6201 Alloy strands form the core with the Aluminum 1350 strands around them. Similar to the galvanized steel core of ACSR, the Aluminum Alloy 6201 wires of ACAR provide a substantially better ampacity while structurally stiffening the conductor. ACAR conductors are stronger and have a greater ampacity than ACSR conductors for the same weight.

 

It satisfies or surpasses all international standards, including those set forth by ASTM, IEC, DIN, BS, AS, CSA, NFC, and SS. Additionally, in order to accommodate your unique requirement, we also offer OEM service.

 

Construction:

 

 

The high strength aluminum-magnesium-silicon (AlMgSi) alloy core of Aluminum Conductor Alloy Reinforced (ACAR) is created by concentrically stranded wires of aluminum 1350. The cable design determines how many wires of the AlMgSi and Aluminum1350 alloy are used. Even though the standard design calls for an AlMgSi alloy stranded core, in some cable configurations the AlMgSi alloy wires can be layered across the Aluminum 1350 strands.

 

Application :

 

Compared to a similar ACSR, AAC, or AAAC, ACAR offers superior mechanical and electrical qualities. Because of its excellent mechanical and electrical balance, ACAR is the ideal option for line designs where ampacity, strength, and low weight are the primary considerations. Transmission and distribution lines that are located overhead make considerable use of these cables.
