ACSR Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced

ACSR conductors have been widely used in power transmission lines with various voltage levels, because they have such good characteristics as simple structure,convenient installation and maintenance. And they are also suitable for laying across rivers valleys and the places where special geographical features exist.

Properties

In comparison with copper, these conductors have considerable technical and economical advantages in the installation advantages in the installation of overhead lines.

Its characteristics, and low weight, combined with its high breaking strength, are gathered which makes it possible to bave large span runs, without having to revert to excessive mechanical tresses or to heavy metallic towers.

Due to the greater diameter of the conductors, electric losses by the corona Effect are greatly reduced.

Buy making use of these properties Economical electric energy. Transmission is attained at very High voltages and distances.
