LV Aerial Bundled Cable Aluminium conductor Application
The aerial bundled cables designed for overhead distribution lines have all conductors made of aluminium 1350 and insulated with XLPE. Phase and neutral cores are laid up in a bundle with a left hand lay. Can be used for fixed installation as overhead power lines up to 1000 V incl.
LV Aerial Bundled Cable Aluminium conductor Standard
BS 7870-5:1999
LV Aerial Bundled Cable Aluminium conductor Construction
| Conductor (for either phase, neutral or street lighting) |
The conductors shall be of aluminium 1350 wires and are compacted circular stranded(RM). |
| Insulation |
XLPE. 1, 2 and 3 raised longitudinal ribs on the surface of the cores. The surface of the neutral core should have at least 12 ribs for cross-sections up to 50 mm² and a minimum of 16 ribs for cores above 50 mm². In the case of five core bundles the surface of the protective core should be smooth. |
| Assembly |
2 up to 4 cores of equal cross section are stranded together in left-hand lay, additionally 1 or 2 cores of reduced cross section can be co-stranded. |
