United States14.3 All wires in the conductor shall be

16、 of the same grade andquality.5. Joints5.1 Joints or splices may be made in the finished individualcopper-clad steel wires composing concentric-lay-strandedconductors, using more than three wires provided that suchjoints or splices have a protection equivalent to that of the wireitself and that they

17、 do not decrease the strength of the finishedstranded conductor below the minimum breaking strengthshown in Table 1. Such joints or splices shall be not closer than50 ft (15 m) to any other joint in the same layer in theconductor (Note 1).NOTE 1Joints or splices in individual copper-clad steel wires

18、 in theirfinished size are made by electrical butt welding. Two types of joints areused and are described as follows:(a) Weld-Annealed JointsAfter butt welding, the wire is annealed fora distance of approximately 5 in. (127 mm) on each side of the weld. Theweld is then protected from corrosion with

19、one of two approaches:1. A snug fitting seamless copper sleeve which extends at least38 in.(9.5 mm) on each side of the weld and which is thoroughly sealed to thewire with solder. The wall thickness of the sleeve is at least 10 % of theradius of the wire.2. Protect the weld from corrosion and ensure

20、 acceptable conductivitythrough the use of a silver solder that extends at least 3/8 in. (9.5 mm) oneach side of the weld.This type of joint is applicable for 7, 12, and 19 wire strandedconfigurations. When joints made on annealed individual wires, thecompleted stranded conductor is required to have

21、 the full rated strength.For hard drawn material, this joint has a tensile strength of approximately60 000 psi (415 MPa). This is less than the strength of the individualwires, but an allowance is made for this in the rated strength of theconductor as a whole. The completed conductor when containing

22、 suchjoints is required to have the full rated strength. Other protection methodsmay also be used as agreed upon between the purchaser and manufacturer.This type of joint is but slightly larger than the wire itself and isapplicable for 7, 12, and 19-wire stranded conductors.(b) Compression-Weld Join

23、tsCompression-weld joints differ fromweld-annealed joints in that the wire is not annealed after the butt-weldingoperation but is reinforced with a hard-drawn, seamless, silicon-tin bronzesleeve which is applied by means of a hydraulic compressor over the weld.This sleeve is covered with solder so a

24、s to completely seal the ends. Thesesleeves have a wall thickness of 25 to 50 % of the radius of the wire,depending on the wire size. Their use is usually limited to 3-wireconductors where the relatively large diameter is not objectionable. ThisTABLE 1 Construction Requirements and Breaking Strength

34、lly in their truepositions in the completed conductor. They shall tend to remainin position when the conductor is cut at any point and shallpermit restranding by hand after being forcibly unraveled at theend of the conductor.7. Construction7.1 The numbers and diameters of the wires in theconcentric-

35、lay-stranded conductors shall conform to the re-quirements prescribed in Table 1 (Note 2).NOTE 2For definitions of terms relating to conductors, referenceshould be made to (1) ANSI C42.35-latest revision and (2) TerminologyB354.8. Physical and Electrical Tests8.1 Tests for physical and electrical pr

36、operties of wirescomposing concentric-lay-stranded conductors made fromcopper-clad steel wire shall be made before stranding.8.2 At the option of the purchaser, tension and elongationtests before stranding may be waived and the completeconductors may be tested as a unit. The breaking strength of the

37、conductors so tested shall be not less than that required in Table1.8.3 Where breaking strength tests are required on thefinished conductor, they shall be made on representativesamples not less than 4 ft (1.22 m) in length. For lots of 10 000lb (4540 kg) or less, two samples shall be taken from sepa

38、ratereels or coils in the lot except that but one sample shall berequired where the total amount of conductor is 5000 ft (1525m) or less. For quantities over 10 000 lb, one sample for each10 000 lb, or fraction thereof, shall be taken, but the minimumnumber of samples shall be three.8.4 Specimens of

39、 the completed conductor shall be tested ina tensile testing machine equipped with jaws suitable forgripping of the conductor or equipped for holding properlysocketed specimens. Any test in which the result is below thestated value and which is obviously caused by impropersocketing of the specimen,

40、or due to the break occurring in orat the gripping jaws of the machine, shall be disregarded andanother sample from the same coil or reel shall be tested.9. Density9.1 For the purpose of calculating mass per unit length(Note 3), cross sections, and so forth, the density of thecopper-clad steel wire

41、shall be taken as shown in Table 2 (Note4).NOTE 3The term mass per unit length is used in this specification asbeing more technically correct replaces the term “weights.”NOTE 4The value of density of copper-clad steel is an average valuewhich has been found to be in accordance with usual values enco

42、unteredin practice. Equivalent expressions of density at 20C are given in Table2.10. Mass and Resistance10.1 The mass and electrical resistance of a unit length ofstranded conductor are a function of the length of lay. Theapproximate mass and electrical resistance may be determinedusing the standard

43、 increments shown in Table 3. When greateraccuracy is desired, the increment based on the specific lay ofthe conductor may be calculated (Note 5).NOTE 5The increment of mass or electrical resistance of a completedconcentric-lay-stranded conductor (k) in percent isk 5 100m 2 1!where m is the strandin

44、g factor, and is also the ratio of the mass orelectrical resistance of a unit length of stranded conductor to that of a solidconductor of the same cross-sectional area or of a stranded conductor withinfinite length of stranding, that is, all wires parallel to the conductor axis.The stranding factor

45、m for the completed stranded conductor is thenumerical average of the stranding factors for each of the individual wiresin the conductor, including the straight core wire, if any (for which thestranding factor is unity). The stranding factor (mind) for any given wire ina concentric-lay-stranded cond

Variation in Area11.1 The area of cross section of the completed conductorshall be not less than 97 % of the area specified. The area ofcross section o

47、f a conductor shall be considered to be the sumof the cross-sectional areas of its component wires at anysection when measured perpendicularly to their individual axes(Note 6). For the purpose of determining conformance to thisstandard, a measured or calculated value for cross sectionalarea shall be

48、 rounded to four significant figures in accordancewith the rounding method of Practice E29.NOTE 6For the convenience of the users of this specification, Table 4has been prepared giving areas, resistances per 1000 ft, and mass per 1000ft, and per mile, of the various constructions referred to in Tabl
