3、fense.e1NOTETable 1 was editorially corrected in March 2007.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers bare rope-lay-stranded con-ductors having concentric-stranded members made from roundcopper wires, either uncoated or coated with tin, lead, orlead-alloy for use as electrical conductors (Explanatory No

4、te 1and Note 2).1.2 Coated wires shall include only those wires with fin-ished diameters and densities substantially equal to the respec-tive diameters and densities of uncoated wires.1.3 The values stated in inch-pound or SI units are to beregarded separately as standard. Each system shall be usedi

5、ndependently of the other. Combining values from the twosystems may result in nonconformance with the specification.For conductor sizes designated by AWG or kcmil, the require-ments in SI units have been numerically converted fromcorresponding values, stated or derived, in inch-pound units.For condu

6、ctor sizes designated by SI units only, the require-ments are stated or derived in SI units.1.3.1 For density, resistivity, and temperature, the valuesstated in SI units are to be regarded as standard.2.
