38、S 2.0 GENERAL Conductors shall meet the requirements of the appropriate ASTM standards referenced in 2.1, except that compliance with cross-sectional area is not required. Resistance will be determined in accordance with 2.4, and diameters will be in accordance with 2.5. The following technical info

39、rmation on typical conductors can be found in Appendix G: a) Approximate diameters of individual wires in stranded conductors. b) Approximate conductor weights. 2.1 PHYSICAL AND ELECTRICAL PROPERTIES The conductors used in the cable shall be copper, in accordance with 2.1.1, or aluminum, in accordan

40、ce with 2.1.2, as applicable, except as noted in 2.0. Conductors shall be solid or stranded. The outer layer of an uncoated stranded copper conductor may be tin-coated to obtain free stripping of an adjacent polymeric layer. Other stranding available by agreement between purchaser and manufacturer.
