AAC AAAC and ACSR Bare Overhead Conductor
Bare stranded aluminium conductor for overhead distribution spans.
Bare overhead conductor in three constructions: all aluminium conductor, aluminium alloy conductor, and aluminium conductor steel reinforced. The three differ in strength to weight ratio, which is what sets the span you can achieve between poles at a given sag.

- Designers selecting conductor against span and sag requirements
- Rural electrification projects with long spans between poles
Problems It Answers
- AAC AAAC and ACSR available from the same enquiry so the design can be compared before ordering
- Steel reinforced construction for spans that all-aluminium cannot hold
- Supplied with the insulators clamps and fittings that terminate it
- Conductor and pole line hardware consolidated into one shipment
Where It Gets Used
New 11kV and 33kV overhead distribution spans
River and valley crossings needing higher tensile strength
Reconductoring an existing line to increase capacity
Rural distribution with long pole spacing

Aluminium Conductor Questions
When should ACSR be used instead of AAC
When the span or the tension exceeds what all-aluminium can carry at acceptable sag. The steel core takes the mechanical load while the aluminium strands carry the current.
What is the advantage of aluminium alloy conductor
AAAC gives a better strength to weight ratio than plain AAC without a steel core, which also removes the bimetallic corrosion concern in aggressive environments.
Can conductor be supplied with the line fittings
Yes - conductor, clamps, insulators and fittings are quoted on one line list and shipped as one consignment.
