Product description
Product Application
Covered Line Wire is used primarily for overhead secondary distribution lines.It is not an electrically insulated conductor and is treated as bare conductor when installed.
Product Construction
Conductors are aluminum alloy 1350-H19, 6210-T81, or ACSR conductors, concentrically stranded and covered for weather proofing with polyethylene, high density polyethylene (HD) or crosslinked polyethylene (XLP).
Product Standards
ASTM B-230,B-231,B-232 and B-399
ICEA S-61-402 and S-66-524
The Diagram of Structure:
NOTE: The Code Words as Given Apply to Conventional Polyethylene Line Wire.
Available in 500 ft coils or long lengths on reels.The data is approximate and subject to normal manufacturing tolerances.
For 6201 aluminum conductor diameter equivalent to ACSR conductor or 1350 aluminum equivalent. Ampacity ratings based on 75°C conductor temperature 25°C ambient temperature elevation-sea lexel. Emissivity 0.91, coefficient of absorption 0.95. Thermal reisitivity of covering-375°C-Cm2/Watt-CM. Wind speed 2ft/sec in sun.
To determine current ampacity by conductor size,please consult The National Electric Code,latest edition.
