Scope1.1 This specification covers shaped wire compactconcentric-lay-stranded aluminum conductor (AAC/TW) andits component

3、 wires for use as overhead electrical conductors(Explanatory Note 1 and Note 2).1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas the standard with the exception of temperature and resistiv-ity. The SI equivalents of inch-pound units may be approxi-mate.NOTE 1AAC/TW is designed to incre

The conductors consist of a central core of one round aluminumwire or a seven-strand compact round core surrounded by two or morelayers of trapezoidal aluminum 1350-H19 wires. For the purposes of thi

29、tside layer of aluminum wiresof shaped wire aluminum conductors, having multiple layers ofaluminum wires is 11 times the outside diameter of theconductor but the lay shall not be less than 10 nor more than 14times that diameter (Explanatory Note 1).6.2 The preferred lay of the layer immediately bene

30、ath theoutside layer of aluminum wires is 13 times the outsidediameter of such layer but the lay shall be not less than 10 normore than 16 times that diameter.6.3 The lay of the inner layers of aluminum wires shall benot less than 10 nor more than 17 times the outside diameter ofsuch layer.6.4 The d

31、irection of lay of the outside layer of aluminumwires shall be right-hand.6.5 The direction of lay of the aluminum wires shall bereversed in successive layers.6.6 For the purpose of this specification the lay factor is thelength of lay of a given layer divided by its outside diameter.7. Construction

32、7.1 The nominal aluminum cross-sectional area, the outsidediameter, the nominal number of aluminum wires, the numberof layers, the linear density, and the rated strength, of theshaped wire compact concentric-lay-stranded aluminumconductors, shall be as shown in Table 1 and Table 2.NOTE 3Exception to

33、 7.1. Because the final design of a shaped wirecompact conductor is contingent on several factors such as layer diameter,wire width and thickness, and the like, the actual configuration of a givensize may vary between manufacturers. This might result in a slightvariation in the number of wires and n

34、umber of layers, from that shown inTable 1 and Table 2, and also in the dimensions of the individual wires.8. Rated Strength of Conductor8.1 The rated strength of a conductor, as shown in Table 1and Table 2, shall be taken as the percentage, indicated in Table3, in accordance with the number of alum

35、inum layers, of thesum of the wire strengths calculated from the specifieddiameter of the round wires having the same area as thetrapezoidal wires used in the manufacture of the conductor, andthe appropriate minimum average tensile strength given inSpecification B230/B230M.8.1.1 The rated strengths

36、of conductors calculated in accor-dance with 8.1 and 8.3 are listed in Table 1 and Table 2.8.2 Tests to confirm that the rated strength of the conductoris met are not required by this specification, but shall be madeif agreed upon between the manufacturer and the purchaser atthe time of placing an o

37、rder. When tested, the breaking strengthof the conductor shall be not less than the rated strength iffailure occurs in the free length at least 1 in. (25 mm) beyondthe end of either gripping device, or shall be not less than 95 %of the rated strength if failure occurs inside or within 1 in. ofthe en

38、d of either gripping device (Explanatory Note 2).8.3 Rated strength and breaking strength values shall berounded to three significant figures in the final value only, inaccordance with Practice E29.9. Density9.1 For the purpose of calculating mass per unit length,cross-sections, and the like, the de

39、nsity of aluminum 1350 shallbe taken as 0.0975 lb/in.3(2705 kg/m3) at 20C.10. Mass and Electrical Resistance10.1 The mass per unit length and electrical resistance of aunit length of stranded conductor are a function of the length oflay. The approximate linear density and electrical resistance ofa s

40、tranded conductor may be determined using the standardincrements shown in Table 4. When greater accuracy isdesired, the increment based on the actual lay of the conductormay be calculated (Explanatory Note 3).11. Variations in Area11.1 The area of cross-section of the aluminum wires of theconductor

41、shall be not less than 98 % nor more than 102 % ofthe area specified in column 1 of Table 1 and Table 2. The totalarea of the aluminum wires in the conductor shall be deter-mined by Test Method B263. In applying this method, theincrement in linear density resulting from stranding may be theapplicabl

42、e value specified in Table 4, or it may be calculatedfrom the measured dimensions of the sample under test. In caseof questions regarding area compliance, the actual lineardensity increment due to stranding shall be calculated.11.2 The diameter of the finished conductor shall be not lessthan 99 % no

43、r more than 101 % of that shown in Table 1 andTable 2 when measured with a diameter tape between theclosing dies and the capstan of the strander.12. Workmanship, Finish, and Appearance12.1 The conductor shall be clean and free from imperfec-tions not consistent with good commercial practice.13. Mech

44、anical and Electrical Tests13.1 Tests for mechanical and electrical properties of alu-minum wires shall be made before stranding (Explanatory Note4).14. Inspection14.1 Unless otherwise specified in the contract or purchaseorder, the manufacturer shall be responsible for the perfor-mance of all inspe

Packaging and Package Marking15.1 Package sizes and kind of package, reels, etc. shall beagreed upon between the manufacturer and the purchaser.15.2 There shall be only one len

If heavy wood lagging isrequired, it shall be specified by the purchaser at the time ofplacing the order.15.4 The net mass, length, size, kind of conductor,stranding, and any other nece
