ACSR is the most widely used overhead conductor type for high-voltage and extra-high-voltage lines because it combines the high conductivity and light weight of aluminum with the high tensile strength of steel. It is manufactured to ASTM B232, IEC 61089, BS 215 Part 2, and GB\/T 1179.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is the Construction of ACSR Conductor?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The steel core may be a single wire or a stranded cable of 7, 19 or more galvanized steel wires (Class A or C coating). One or more layers of aluminum wires are stranded concentrically around the core in the opposite lay direction. Common stranding designs include 6\/1, 18\/1, 26\/7, 30\/7, 45\/7, 54\/7 and 54\/19 (aluminum wires \/ steel wires).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ratio of aluminum to steel cross-section determines the balance between conductivity and tensile strength. Higher steel content increases rated strength and allows longer spans or heavier ice\/wind loads, while higher aluminum content improves current-carrying capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Key Points<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      • ACSR is a composite conductor with a galvanized steel core and concentric layers of hard-drawn aluminum wires.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • It offers the best strength-to-weight ratio among conventional overhead conductors and is the standard choice for long-span transmission lines.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Common stranding designs range from 6\/1 to 54\/19 and larger; sizes from 16 mm\u00b2 to over 1 000 mm\u00b2 are in regular production.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Manufactured and tested to ASTM B232, IEC 61089, BS 215 and GB\/T 1179.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Selection is driven by span length, mechanical loading, current rating and corrosion environment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        Custom stranding, aluminum-clad steel cores, non-specular finishes and specific drum lengths are available to meet project requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
