Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced (ACSR)

Description An outer layer of Aluminum conductor concentrically stranded over the central core of galvanized solid or stranded steel wires to form an aluminum-steel-reinforced conductor. Application Aluminum Conductors, Steel-Reinforced (ACSR) can be used in medium, high, and extra-high voltage transmission lines; they are also used for primary and secondary distribution lines. The combination of aluminum and steel in the conductor design offers both efficient conductivity and high tensile strength, making ACSR the most economical solution for overhead power transmission and distribution projects.
