AAC All Aluminum Conductor- BS 215

Application:

 Stranded 1350 aluminum conductors shown in this section of data are classified as follows:

• Class AA For bare conductors usually used in overhead lines.
• Class A For conductors to be covered with weather-resistant materials and for bare conductors where greater flexibility is required.
• Compact strand conductor for use in bare overhead applications or for use with weather-resistant coverings or insulations is also available.
• Classes refer to stranding and are an indication of relative conductor flexibility, AA being the least flexible, C the most flexible

Construction:

ALUMINUM WIRES ARE CONCENTRICALLY STRANDED

Aluminum alloy 1350-H19 wires, concentrically stranded.

Specifications:

• AAC bare conductors meet or exceed the following ASTM specifications :
• B-230 Aluminum Wire, 1250-H19 for Electrical Purposes
• B-231 Aluminum Conductors, Concentric-Lay-Stranded
• B-400 Compact Round Concentric-Lay-Stranded Aluminum 1350 Conductors

Standards:

All aluminum conductor meets or exceeds the following standards:IEC61089,BS215,DIN48201,ASTMB231,BS EN50182,GB/T1179-2008

NOTES:

Resistance is calculated using ASTM standard increments of stranding and metal conductivity of 52.5% IACS, AC resistance at 60Hz, Current ratings are based on 75℃ conductor temperature, 25℃ ambient, 2ft/s wind, 96/watts/sq.ft sun, .05 coefficients of emissivity and absorption.
