Conductor: Bare Copper Soft annealed copper wires stranded in successive layers, in opposite direction, to form the copper stranded conductor, it can be circular or circular compacted.
AAC is the most favoured type for use in the construction of relatively short span distribution schemes and are in common use on lines for voltage up to 60 KV.
The mixed construction of ACSR (Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced) offers significant flexibility from a design perspective. By varying the proportion of aluminum (H14) and steel, an ideal conductor can be produced for any specific application. Generally, ACSR consists of a galvanized steel core, which can be made up of 1, 7, or 19 wires, surrounded by concentric layers of aluminum wire. For applications requiring high current-carrying capacity with comparatively lower strength, special constructions with higher aluminum content are available.
