266.8MCM ACSR WAXWING Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced
Also Known As:
266.8 waxwing steel reinforced cable, 266.8 waxwing acsr wire, 266.8 waxwing acsr cable, 266.8 waxwing aluminum conductor steel reinforced, 266.8 waxwing acsr aluminum conductor steel reinforced, 266.8 waxwing all aluminum conductor, 266.8 waxwing aluminum alloy cable, 266.8 waxwing abrasive resistant cable, 266.8 waxwing transmission overhead, 266.8 waxwing overhead power line components.
Allowable Ampacity for 266.8MCM ACSR WAXWING CONDUCTOR: 449 Amps
Applications
This wire is suitable for use in all practical spans on wood poles, transmission towers, and other structures. Applications range from long, extra high voltage (EHV) transmission lines to sub-service spans at distribution or utilization voltages on private premises.
ACSR (aluminum conductor steel reinforced) has a long service record because of its economy, dependability, and strength to weight ratio. The combined light weight and high conductivity of aluminum with strength of the steel core enables higher tensions, less sag, and longer spans than any alternative.
Applicable Standards:
– ASTM B-230 Aluminum wire, 1350-H19 for Electrical Purposes
– ASTM B-231 Aluminum conductors, concentric lay stranded
– ASTM B-232 Aluminum conductors, concentric lay stranded, coated steel reinforced (ACSR)
– ASTM B-341 Aluminum coated steel core wire for aluminum conductors, steel reinforced (ACSR/AZ)
– ASTM B-498 Zinc coated steel core wire for aluminum conductors, steel reinforced (ACSR)
– ASTM B-500 Metallic coat
Construction
ACSR (aluminum conductor steel reinforced) has a concentric steel core stranding conductor consisting of Aluminum Alloy 1350-H19 wires, available with Class A, B, or C galvanizing, aluminum coated (AZ), or with aluminum-clad steel core (AL).
