ACSR conductor is available in a range of steel strengths varying from 6% up to 40%. The higher strength ACSR conductors are used for river crossings, overhead earth wires, and installations involving extra long spans.
The TransPowr® ASCR/AW Bare Overhead Conductor, thanks to their AW core, is lightweight and has a the good conductivity of the aluminum plus the high tensile strength and ruggedness of steel. This EPD includes results for the following products: LAPWING/ACSR/AW2
ACSR conductors are a composite, concentrically stranded conductor consisting of a single galvanised steel wire or a stranded galvanized steel central core surrounded with one or more layers of EC grade (alloy 1350) stranded aluminium wires.
