The aluminum conductor alloy reinforced (ACAR) is an excellent conductor choice where current carrying capacity, higher strength and a lower conductor weight are critical to the line design.

 

Property

1.improved strength to weight ratio

2.better mechanical properties

3.improved electrical characteristics

4.excellent resistance to corrosion

Specification

Construction

The aluminum conductor alloy reinforced (ACAR) has concentrically stranded aluminum 1350-H19 wire around a 6201-T81 aluminum alloy core. Typically, the 6201-T81 is the conductor core, but in certain designs, the 1350 H19 and the 6201-T81 wires may be stranded in the same layer.
