Specification
900 MCM Ruddy ACSS AW Aluminum Conductor Steel Supported Aluminum Clad
Application:
Generally used as bare overhead transmission lines. Maximum operating temperature:* ACSS/AW 250 °C
Also Known As:
900 MCM ACSS AW Conductor, 900 MCM Aluminum Clad Steel Wire, 900 MCM Overhead Transmission Lines, 900 MCM High-Temperature Conductors, 900 MCM Electrical Grid Upgrades, 900 MCM Concentric Lay Stranding, 900 MCM Bare Overhead Conductors, 900 MCM High Tension Power Lines, 900 MCM Steel Supported Aluminum, 900 MCM ACSS Sag Properties
Standards:
ASTM B856: Concentric-Lay-Stranded Aluminum Conductors, Coated Steel Supported (ACSS).
ASTM B609: Aluminum 1350 Round Wire, Annealed and Intermediate Tempers.
ASTM B502: Specification for Aluminum-Clad Steel Core Wire for Aluminum Conductors, Aluminum-Clad Steel Reinforced.
Conductor:
Aluminum alloy 1350-0, fully annealed (0 temper).
Steel Core: Aluminum-Clad steel core wire.
Stranding:
1350-0 wires concentrically stranded, consisting of one or more layers of wire helically wrapped around a stranded Aluminum-Clad Steel core wire.
Features:
• ACSS has at least 63.0% IACS conductivity due to their “deadsoft” (fully annealed) aluminum strands.
• For the same reason, ACSS cables can be operated at temperatures of maximum 250 °C without loss of strength.
• Since the mechanical tension applied to the aluminum strands is low, the ACSS self damping characteristic is high.
• This allows ACSS cables to be installed at high unloaded tensions without the need for separate Stockbridge dampers.
