715.5MCM ACSR Redwing Conductor
715.5MCM ACSR Redwing Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced
Also Known As:
715.5 Redwing steel reinforced cable, 715.5 Redwing acsr wire, 715.5 Redwing acsr cable, 715.5 Redwing aluminum conductor steel reinforced, 715.5 Redwing acsr aluminum conductor steel reinforced, 715.5 Redwing all aluminum conductor, 715.5 Redwing aluminum alloy cable, 715.5 Redwing abrasive resistant cable, 715.5 Redwing transmission overhead, 715.5 Redwing overhead power line components.
Allowable Ampacity for 715.5MCM ACSR Redwing Conductor: 859 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).
