- Standard Compliant: Fully adheres to ASTM B-230 and ASTM B-231 standards, ensuring consistent quality and performance.
Applications:
The 477 MCM Syringa AAC Conductor is highly versatile and widely used across various overhead power applications:
- Low and Medium Voltage Overhead Lines: A common choice for general power transmission.
- Urban Distribution Networks: Its ability to carry significant voltages over short distances makes it ideal for congested urban environments.
- Coastal Regions: Excellent corrosion resistance ensures long-term reliability in salt-laden atmospheres.
- Railway & Subway Industries: Durability and corrosion resistance are beneficial for traction power and signaling lines.
- Shipyards & Offshore Construction: Withstands harsh marine and industrial conditions.
- Primary and Secondary Distribution: A cost-effective solution for various distribution duties.
Construction:
The 477 MCM Syringa AAC conductor is constructed from multiple strands of aluminum alloy 1350 wires. These wires are concentrically lay-stranded, wrapped helically around a central wire. Each successive layer comprises six more wires than the previous underlying layer. The outer layer is designed with a right-hand lay, with the lay direction reversed in successive layers to enhance cable stability and performance.
