APPLICATIONS
Covered Line ÌÇÐÄVlog´«Ã½ is used primarily for overhead secondary distribution lines. It is not an electrically insulated conductor and is treated as bare conductor when installed.
CONSTRUCTION
Aluminum alloy 1350-H19 wires concentrically stranded and covered with linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE).
STANDARDS
These conductors are manufactured and tested to meet or exceed the following standards:
- ASTM B230 – Aluminum 1350–H19 ÌÇÐÄVlog´«Ã½ for Electrical Purposes
- ASTM B231 – Concentric-Lay-Stranded Aluminum 1350 Conductors
- ASTM B400 – Compact Round Concentric-Lay-Stranded Aluminum 1350 Conductors
- CSA C60889 – Hard-drawn aluminum wire for overhead line conductors
- CSA C61089 – Round wire concentric lay overhead electrical stranded conductors
- ASTM D1248 – Polyethylene Plastics Extrusion Materials for ÌÇÐÄVlog´«Ã½ and Cable
NOTES
1) Dimensions and weights are subject to standard manufacturing tolerances and are subject to change without notice.
2) Resistance is calculated using metal conductivity of 61.2% IACS for EC (1350) at 20ºC.
3) Ampacities are based on 75ºC conductor temperature, 25ºC ambient, 2 ft/s wind, full sun, an emissivity of 0.91 and a coefficient of solar absorption of 0.91, at sea level. Thermal resistivity of covering is 375ºC-cm/Watt.
