Medium Voltage Covered Conductor
Product Description
AAC (1350-H19), AAAC or ACSR conductors, concentrically stranded. Available with black or gray track resistant, high-density polyethylene (HD) or black track-resistant crosslinked polyethylene (XLP) covering. Covered conductors consist of stranded hard drawn aluminum conductors with either one, two or three extruded layers depending on the voltage rating.
In a Covered Aerial MV System (formerly called Spacer Cable), spacers hold three MV phase conductors in close approximation. The spacers are suspended from a high-strength messenger wire. Covered Aerial MV (CAMV) cable itself is a single aluminum conductor protected by a layer of track-resistant polyethylene.
FEATURES:
* Covering prevents faults due to contact
* Proprietary, high density outer layer resists abrasion and electrical tracking
* High impulse strength allows for close spacing of phase conductors
* Installed the same as bare conductors, however, covering is effective in preventing direct shorts and instantaneous flashovers should tree limbs or other objects contact conductors in such close proximity.
