Production Description
The mixed construction of ACSR makes it a very flexible medium from the design point of view.
By varying the relative proportions of aluminium and steel, the ideal conductor for any particular
application can be produced. Generally, ACSR consists of a galvanized steel core of 1 wire, 7 wires or 19 wires surrounded by concentric layers of aluminium wire. When a conductor with a high current carrying capacity and comparatively low strength is required, special constructions are available with high aluminum content.
Application of acsr rabbit
ACSR Rabbit conductor is applied for overhead power transmission line
