ACSR/TW Bare Aluminum Overhead Transmission & Distribution

ACSR/TW (shaped wire aluminum conductor, steel reinforced) Application

Used for bare overhead transmission, and primary and secondary distribution.
Two design offerings: Equal Area or Equal Diameter when compared to standard round ACSR
Equal area designs allow comparable ampacity in a smaller diameter conductor when compared to a standard round ACSR.
Equal diameter designs allow more ampacity and strength in an equal diameter conductor when compared to a standard round ACSR.

ACSR/TW (shaped wire aluminum conductor, steel reinforced) Standards & References

ASTM B230 Aluminum 1350-H19 Wire for Electrical Purposes
ASTM B498 Zinc-Coated (Galvanized) Steel Core Wire for Use in Overhead Electrical Conductors
ASTM B500 Metallic Coated or Aluminum Clad Stranded Steel Core for Use in Overhead Electrical Conductors
ASTM B779 Shaped Wire Compact Concentric-Lay-Stranded Aluminum Conductors, Steel-Reinforced (ACSR/TW)

ACSR/TW (shaped wire aluminum conductor, steel reinforced) Construction

Aluminum 1350-H19 trapezoidal-shaped wires, concentrically stranded about a steel core. Standard core wire coating for ACSR is Class A galvanized (GA2).
Also available in zinc-5% aluminum-mischmetal alloy coating or aluminum-clad (AW)
Additional corrosion protection is available through the application of grease to the core or complete conductor.
Also available in non-specular
