556.5 MCM 19 Stranded Hard Drawn Aluminum Covered Shield Polyethylene 35KV Spacer Cable

Allowable Ampacity for 556.5 MCM 19 Stranded Hard Drawn Aluminum Covered Shield Polyethylene 35KV Spacer Cable:100 Amps

About:

Covered conductors consist of stranded hard drawn aluminium conductors with either one, two or three extruded layers depending on the voltage rating. Covered conductors are available in black or gray depending on visual preference.

Also Known As:

• 35KV Covered Aerial Medium Voltage (MV) Cable
• 35KV Tree Wire
• 35KV Spacer Cable
• Insulated Aerial Medium Voltage Cable

Application:

Covered conductors are designed to be used in spacer cable systems. Conductors are suspended from the messenger using Hendrix polyethylene spacers. Covered conductors are rated for continuous operation at 75°C.

Benefits:

• Covering prevents faults due to contact
• Proprietary, high density outer layer resists abrasion, electrical tracking and UV degradation.
• Reduced NESC phase spacing is possible due to high impulse strength covering.

Standards:

• ANSI/ICEA S-76-474, which covers the requirements for neutral-supported power cable assemblies with weather-resistant extruded insulation.
• ASTM B230, which specifies the aluminum wire used, ensuring it meets electrical and mechanical property requirements.
• ASTM B231 and ASTM B609, which provide specifications for the stranded aluminum conductors, ensuring they are suitable for electrical purposes.

Construction:

• Conductor: Utilizes 556.5 MCM AWG, 19-strand hard-drawn aluminum, optimized for electrical conductivity and mechanical strength.
• Insulation: Features a high-quality polyethylene layer that provides electrical insulation and resistance to environmental factors.
• Shielding: Includes a conductive or non-conductive shield to protect against electrical interference and physical damage.
• Outer Cover: A robust polyethylene jacket that offers additional protection against UV radiation, weather, and mechanical impacts.

Features:

• Enhanced Voltage Rating: Designed to operate efficiently at 35KV, suitable for medium to high-voltage power distribution networks.
• Durability and Reliability: Constructed with high-quality materials that ensure long-term reliability and resistance to mechanical and environmental stress.
• Safety Compliance: Meets relevant safety and industry standards, providing a secure solution for high-voltage power distribution.
• Environmental Resistance: The insulation and jacket materials are selected for their ability to withstand UV, chemical, and moisture exposure, ensuring consistent performance.
