Aluminum Conductor Steel Reinforced ACSR Conductor Dog 100mm2
Acsr dog conductor is usually used for overhead distribution and transmission of electricity. This conductor is formed by stranded aluminum and steel wire. The outer strand is aluminum, so there are excellent conductivity and light weight. What’s more, the price of aluminum is relatively cheap. And the inner strand is steel that is used to increase the strength and help to support the weight of the whole conductor. Dog conductor size is 6/4.72+7/1.57mm. And its nominal area is 100mm sq.
ACSR Dog Conductor 100mm2 Features
With simple structure, the aluminum conductor steel reinforced is easy to set up and maintain, with low cost and high transmission capacity. It is advantageous for this ACSR to be put up across a valley or river or under other various special geographic conditions. The ACSR has advantages of sound electrical conductivity, high mechanical strength, high tensile strength, etc, and the pole distance can be lengthened. It is used for power transmission lines with various voltage levels and plays an important role in the electricity transmission field.
ACSR Dog Conductor 100mm2 Construction
A “DOG” conductor is a ACSR (aluminum conductor steel reinforced) cable with nominal aluminum cross-sectional area of 100 mm². It has 6 aluminum strands of 4.72 mm diameter and 7 steel strands of 1.57 mm diameter.ACSR dog conductor has a long service record because of its economy, dependability, and strength to weight ratio. The combined light weight and high conductivity of aluminum with strength of the steel core enables higher tensions, less sag, and longer spans than any alternative.
