EmPowr
Underground Distribution and Shielded Power Cables
General Cables EmPowr underground distribution and shielded power cables are manufactured and
tested in accordance with ANSI/ICEA S-94-649 for Type URD concentric neutral and flat strap cable
designs or ANSI/ICEA S-97-682 for copper wire, tape and LACT shielded power cable designs. Our
cables also meet the latest requirements of AEIC CS8 and RUS U-1 as applicable.
Conductors are available in solid or class B compressed concentric lay stranded aluminum or
copper, meeting the appropriate requirements of ICEA and ASTM. Stranded conductors can be blocked
to prevent longitudinal movement of moisture along the cable. When applicable, STRANDFILL
conductors are tested in accordance with ICEA T-31-610.
Exceptional measures are taken during the materials handling and extrusion processes to ensure
our cable delivers the reliability and longevity expected by our customers. Semi-conducting shield
compounds are supplied and handled in an ultra-clean environment. Compounds are supplied in
specially designed ultra-clean containers (protective outer box with a sealed removable inner lining) and
handled within Class 10,000 clean rooms. In addition to the special materials handling, the conductor
shield, insulation and insulation shield are applied using triple extrusion technology. These extra
measures provide our customers with the highest-quality cable products available in the industry.
Designs are available with either Tree-Retardant Crosslinked Polyethylene (TRXLPE) or Ethylene
Propylene Rubber (EPR) insulation. Our EmPowr Link TRXLPE insulated cables offer high
dielectric strength with extremely low dielectric loss characteristics. TRXLPE insulation is an
economical option for the high-volume usage in underground residential systems. Our EmPowr Fill EPR
insulated cables are flexible for easy handling and exhibit excellent heat and moisture resistance. The
physical and thermal characteristics of EPR insulation result in a high resistance to deformation. EPR
insulation is typically specified for heavily loaded circuits such as feeders and network systems.
Cables are available with various metallic shields that include round wires, helically applied copper tape,
flat copper straps or longitudinally applied corrugated copper tape. Combinations of water-swellable
tapes and powders applied between the insulation shield and jacket provide maximum moisture
migration protection. When applicable, BIFILL and TRIFILL water-blocked cables are tested in
accordance with ICEA T-34-664.
A growing alternative to direct buried cable or pulling cable in rigid conduit is purchasing cable
pre-installed in flexible duct. Our CDC Combined Duct & Cable offers mechanical protection
comparable to rigid polyethylene duct and saves labor to pull cable into rigid duct. CDC can also save
considerable costs associated with cable replacement as compared to direct buried cable installations.
General Cable provides a number of underground cables designed to meet special applications.
For example, our PowrPak cables are intended for use in today's aging and expanding urban
underground distribution systems of utilities where PILC has been used previously. Our unique PowrPak
design and special manufacturing techniques allow a diameter reduction of more than 15 percent
relative to standard AEIC solid dielectric cables. The smaller diameter permits PowrPak to be installed
into existing ductwork a feat not always possible with other types of PILC replacement cable.

Medium-Voltage Options:
Index Page
Copper conductor Primarily used when more ampacity is needed and/or there are
limitations to the overall cable diameter.
STRANDFILL Limits the ingress of water into the conductor during cable manufacture,
storage, installation and after service failure.
BIFILL Limits the ingress of water into the conductor and underneath the outer cable
jacket during cable manufacture, storage, installation and after service failure.
EPR Type III 105C rating Allows a slightly higher ampacity of the cable for a given
installation condition.
TRXLPE Type III 105C rating Allows a slightly higher ampacity of the cable for a given
installation condition.
Dry cure for EPR insulated cables More of a preference.
Flat strap neutrals Reduce the overall cable diameter and can provide more protective
coverage over the extruded cable core.
Red stripes Used for identifying medium-voltage power cables.
Semiconducting jackets Provide an electrical connection with the earth in direct burial
applications, which allows a reduction of ground rods per mile in accordance with the
NESC.
PVC jacket PVC can provide a flame-retardant cable design but is susceptible to
degradation by some hydrocarbons, ketones, esters, and chlorinated hydrocarbons. This
option should not be applied in applications where these materials can come in contact
with the cable jacket. PVC cable jackets require a separator tape under jacket to protect the
extruded semiconducting insulation shield from plasticizers.
Deformation-resistant Polypropylene (PP) Used in applications requiring an outer
jacket that is more deformation-resistant at higher temperatures and/or provides better
mechanical protection during installation.
CDC Combined Duct & Cable Used for applications where future cable replacement is
anticipated and access to the cable is prohibited. Combined Duct and Cable can also help
protect the cable during direct burial installation.
UL Type MV-90 or MV-105 Used in applications where UL Listed cable is required for
NEC installations.
UltraPowr A supersmooth and extra-clean thermoset conductor shield compound that
provides a smoother interface with the insulation. This type of conductor shield is only used
with TRXLPE and XLPE insulated cables.
Low strip insulation shield (TRXLPE only) An easier-stripping insulation shield, with
adhesion to the insulation in the 3-10 lb range at room temperature.
Triplexed or paralleled Provides the user with all three phases on one reel for easier
installation set-up.
Three conductor cable with an overall jacket More of a preference.
TRIFILL Limits the ingress of water into the conductor, between the insulation shield/
metallic shield and metallic shield/outer jacket during cable manufacture, storage,
installation and after service failure. Used with LACT shielded cable only.
Class C copper Provides a more flexible conductor than the standard Class B stranding.
Reduced insulation wall A reduced wall insulation thickness is only recommended when
a compact conductor, reduced extruded shield thickness, flat strap neutral and reduced
outer jacket thickness have not reduced the overall cable diameter enough for adequate
duct clearance during installation. Mainly used for replacement of PILC cables.

Mischmetal Alloy-Coated Steel Inside an ACSR and ACSS conductor, there is the stranded
steel core. To provide corrosion protection for the steel, traditionally zinc has been used to coat
(galvanize) the steel. In recent years, a zinc alloy material has also been used. This material, a
95% zinc/5% aluminum alloy, is available as an optional steel wire coating material. The alloy,
known as zinc-5% aluminum mischmetal alloy, demonstrates improved corrosion resistance
and high temperature exposure compatibility as compared to regular zinc. For ACSS conductors,
mischmetal alloy coated steel is recommended for applications where the conductor will see
exposure to temperatures in excess of 200C.
Ultra-High-Strength Steel In response to industry needs, there are new high strength
carbon steel materials now available for ACSR and ACSS conductors. The higher strength
steel overcomes some of the previous transmission line design limitations encountered with
conductor selection options available. The availability of these new steel materials boosts the
conductor rated strength and can enable enhanced sag and tension calculation results. General
Cable identifies the new ultra-high-strength steel as GA5 (for zinc coated steel) and MA5 (for
the zinc-5% aluminum mischmetal alloy coated steel) strength grade designations. General
Cable participated in the creation of two new ASTM standards to introduce these new steel types
(ASTM B957 for GA5 steel and ASTM B958 for MA5 steel).
Aluminum-Clad Steel (AW) In the USA, the AW identifier is used for aluminum-clad steel.
Elsewhere in the world, other designations are used. Aluminum-clad steel is chosen for coastal
locations or applications where there are severe corrosion concerns for the steel core and a
zinc or mischmetal coated steel will not last. Aluminum-clad steel also offers the advantage
of having a higher conductivity than conventional galvanized steel wires. The higher conductivity
will reduce the line loss parameters of the transmission line, saving energy and reducing the
day-to-day operating cost. In an ACSS conductor, aluminum-clad steel can allow the conductor
to be operated up to 250C.
Compact (Smooth Body) Conductors While not popular in the USA, compact AAC and ACSR
type conductors for distribution conductor sizes are used in Canada and elsewhere in the world.
General Cable can supply compact AAC (to ASTM B400) and compact ACSR (to ASTM B401)
smooth body type conductor products. Compact conductors reduce the overall diameter of the
conductor, thus lowering the resultant wind and ice loads on the conductor. In heavy ice load
locations, the compact conductor option may be an interesting design option to explore. Contact
your General Cable sales representative for additional information.
Trapezoidal (TW) Conductors For overhead transmission conductor applications, General
Cable supplies TW compact style conductors. The aluminum strand wires in a round wire
stranded conductor leave approximately 25% of an air gap space in between the aluminum
strands. Compacting the aluminum strands into the trapezoidal (TW) shape allows you to
significantly reduce this empty air space and fill it with aluminum. By compacting the metal
space, it allows you to build a conductor that either a) has the same cross-sectional area of
aluminum and a reduced overall conductor diameter or b) has the same overall conductor
diameter as before, but now squeezes in more aluminum cross-sectional area. Reducing the
overall diameter of the conductor provides the advantage of lowering the resultant ice and wind
loading on the conductor. Maintaining the same diameter by increasing the aluminum metal
content means you lower the power loss in the conductor for day-to-day operations, as well as
having a higher overall conductor ampacity rating. With TW conductors, the growing trend is to
utilize the same diameter/increased aluminum cross-sectional area option.

Product Construction:
Complete Conductor:
Bare all-aluminum 1350 Conductors (AAC) are
concentric-lay-stranded, consisting of one or more
layers of wire wrapped helically around a straight
round central wire. Each successive layer has six
wires more than the layer immediately beneath.
Greater flexibility is provided by increasing the
number of strands for a specific cross-sectional
area. AAC conductors are manufactured in
accordance with the requirements of the latest
applicable issues of ASTM specifications B230 and
B231. The more commonly used strandings are 7,
19, 37, 61 and 91. 127, 169 and 217 strandings
are also available.

91
Applications:
Stranded bare all-aluminum 1350 conductors
(AAC) are used in overhead line installations where
design parameters do not require the higher
strength or temperature ratings provided by ACSR,
ACSS or other type conductors.
Options:
Compact aluminum strands (ASTM B400)
Trapezoidal-shaped aluminum strands (/TW)
High-conductivity aluminum (/HC)

(2) Based on a conductivity of 61.2% (minimum lot average) IACS at 20C. To convert to ohms/mile, multiply by 5.28. To convert to ohms/km, multiply by 3.281.
(3) Based on a conductor temperature of 75C at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind (90 to conductor),
0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30 northern latitude, sea level elevation, 90 azimuth of line (East-West), clear atmosphere,
and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity will differ based on local conditions.
For specific ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(4) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of a 1 ft radius.

(3 Based on a conductor temperature of 75C at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind (90 to conductor), 0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30 northern latitude,
sea level elevation, 90 azimuth of line (East-West), clear atmosphere, and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity will differ based on local conditions. For specific
ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(4) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of a 1 ft radius.

Product Construction:
Complete Conductor:
TransPowr AAC/TW is a trapezoidal 1350 H19
aluminum (AAC) concentric-lay-stranded conductor.
The aluminum strands are trapezoidal in shape. The
wedge-shaped aluminum strands enable a more
compact alignment of the aluminum wires.
Conductor designs that maintain the same circular mil
cross-sectional area of aluminum as a conventional
round conductor result in a TW conductor that is 10 to
15 percent smaller in overall diameter.
Conductor designs that maintain the same overall
diameter as a conventional round conductor result
in a TW conductor that has 20 to 25 percent more
aluminum cross-sectional area packed in.
The AAC/TW conductors are manufactured in
accordance with the requirements of the latest issue of
ASTM B778.
31
51
Applications:
Trapezoidal 1350 H19 aluminum conductors
(AAC/TW) are used for overhead transmission lines
where design parameters do not require the higher
strength or temperature ratings provided by ACSR,
ACSS or other type conductors.
Electrical Parameters:
The electrical parameters for the trapezoidal AAC
equivalent circular mil area and equivalent overall
diameter conductors may be found in the last table of
this section.
Options:
High-conductivity aluminum (/HC) (62.0% IACS)
Non-specular surface finish (/NS)
For other conductor sizes, designs and/or specific
installation requirements not shown in the tables,
contact your General Cable sales representative or
e-mail [email protected].

Product Construction:
Complete Conductor:
AAAC is a high-strength aluminum alloy, concentriclay-stranded conductor. It is similar in construction and
appearance to the AAC all-aluminum conductor.
The AAAC conductor is manufactured in accordance
with the requirements of the latest issue of ASTM
B399. The AAAC conductor is manufactured from a
heat-treated, magnesium-silicide high-strength 6201
T81 aluminum alloy.
The aluminum strands consist of a concentricstranded cable of 7, 19, 37 or more wires. The sizes
and strandings listed are common examples used in
overhead lines. Metric (mm) sizes are also available.
19
37
Applications:
AAAC aluminum alloy conductors are extensively
used for overhead distribution and transmission
lines adjacent to ocean coastlines where there can
be a problem of corrosion in the steel of an ACSR
construction.
The aluminum alloy conductors are used in place of
single-layer ACSR conductors (i.e., #6 to #4/0 AWG)
to reduce power losses in overhead distribution and
transmission lines. The inductive effect of the ACSRs
steel core is eliminated, hence increasing the operating
efficiency of the line.
Options:
Non-specular surface finish (/NS)
For other conductor sizes, designs and/or specific
installation requirements not shown in the tables,
contact your General Cable sales representative or
e-mail [email protected].

(1) Code words shown denote ACSR with regular-strength Class A Galvanized steel core (/GA2). See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(4) Based on a conductivity of 61.2% (minimum lot average) IACS at 20C for aluminum and 8% IACS at 20C for the steel core. AC resistance for single-layer and three-layer designs approximates the effects of core
magnetization. To convert to ohms/mile, multiply by 5.28. To convert to ohms/km, multiply by 3.281.
(5) Based on a conductor temperature of 75C at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind (90 to conductor),
0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30 northern latitude, sea level elevation, 90 azimuth of line (East-West), clear atmosphere,
and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity will differ based on local conditions.
For specific ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(6) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of a 1 ft radius.

(1) Code words shown denote ACSR with regular-strength Class A Galvanized steel core (/GA2). See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(4) Based on a conductivity of 61.2% (minimum lot average) IACS at 20C for aluminum and 8% IACS at 20C for the steel core. AC resistance for single-layer and three-layer designs approximates the effects of core
magnetization. To convert to ohms/mile, multiply by 5.28. To convert to ohms/km, multiply by 3.281.
(5) Based on a conductor temperature of 75C at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind (90 to conductor),
0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30 northern latitude, sea level elevation, 90 azimuth of line (East-West), clear atmosphere,
and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity will differ based on local conditions.
For specific ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(6) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of a 1 ft radius.

(1) Code words shown denote ACSR with regular-strength Class A Galvanized steel core (/GA2). See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(4) Based on a conductivity of 61.2% (minimum lot average) IACS at 20C for aluminum and 8% IACS at 20C for the steel core. AC resistance for single-layer and three-layer designs approximates the effects of core
magnetization. To convert to ohms/mile, multiply by 5.28. To convert to ohms/km, multiply by 3.281.
(5) Based on a conductor temperature of 75C at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind (90 to conductor),
0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30 northern latitude, sea level elevation, 90 azimuth of line (East-West), clear atmosphere,
and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity will differ based on local conditions.
For specific ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(6) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of a 1 ft radius.

(1) Code words shown denote ACSR with regular-strength Class A Galvanized steel core (/GA2). See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(4) Based on a conductivity of 61.2% (minimum lot average) IACS at 20C for aluminum and 8% IACS at 20C for the steel core. AC resistance for single-layer and three-layer designs approximates the effects of core
magnetization. To convert to ohms/mile, multiply by 5.28. To convert to ohms/km, multiply by 3.281.
(5) Based on a conductor temperature of 75C at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind (90 to conductor),
0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30 northern latitude, sea level elevation, 90 azimuth of line (East-West), clear atmosphere,
and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity will differ based on local conditions.
For specific ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(6) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of a 1 ft radius.

Product Construction:
Complete Conductor:
ACSR/AW is a composite concentric-lay-stranded
conductor. ACSR/AW conductors are manufactured
in accordance with the requirements of the latest
applicable issues of ASTM specification B549.
Aluminum-clad steel strands form the central core of
the conductor, around which is stranded one or more
layers of aluminum 1350-H19 wires. The aluminumclad steel core may consist of a single strand or a
concentric stranded conductor of 7, 19, 37 or more
wires. Numerous combinations of aluminum and
steel strands and layers are possible. The sizes and
strandings listed on the following pages are those
most frequently used for overhead lines.

Applications:
Options:
Compact aluminum strands (ASTM B401)
High-conductivity aluminum (/HC) (62.0% IACS)
Trapezoidal-shaped aluminum strands (/TW)
Non-specular surface finish (/NS)
For other conductor sizes, designs and/or specific
installation requirements not shown in the tables,
contact your General Cable sales representative or
e-mail [email protected].
Aluminum conductors reinforced with aluminumclad steel wire (ACSR/AW) are used for overhead
distribution and transmission lines where a high
degree of corrosion resistance is needed. It should
also be considered for use in locations where air
pollution exists, such as along the coast or in highly
industrialized areas.

(1) Code words shown, including suffix /AW, denote ACSR with aluminum-clad steel core. See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(4) Based on a conductivity of 61.2% (minimum lot average) IACS at 20C for aluminum and 20.3% IACS at 20C for the aluminum-clad steel core. AC resistance for single-layer and three-layer designs approximates
the effects of core magnetization. To convert to ohms/mile, multiply by 5.28. To convert to ohms/km, multiply by 3.281.
(5) Based on a conductor temperature of 75C at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind (90 to conductor), 0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity,
30 northern latitude, sea level elevation, 90 azimuth of line (East-West), clear atmosphere, and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity will
differ based on local conditions. For specific ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(6) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of a 1 ft radius.

(1) Code words shown, including suffix /AW, denote ACSR with aluminum-clad steel core. See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(4) Based on a conductivity of 61.2% (minimum lot average) IACS at 20C for aluminum and 20.3% IACS at 20C for the aluminum-clad steel core. AC resistance for single-layer and three-layer designs approximates
the effects of core magnetization. To convert to ohms/mile, multiply by 5.28. To convert to ohms/km, multiply by 3.281.
(5) Based on a conductor temperature of 75C at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind
(90 to conductor), 0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30 northern latitude, sea level elevation, 90 azimuth of line
(East-West), clear atmosphere, and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity
will differ based on local conditions. For specific ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(6) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of a 1 ft radius.

(1) Code words shown, including suffix /AW, denote ACSR with aluminum-clad steel core. See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(4) Based on a conductivity of 61.2% (minimum lot average) IACS at 20C for aluminum and 20.3% IACS at 20C for the aluminum-clad steel core. AC resistance for single-layer and three-layer designs approximates
the effects of core magnetization. To convert to ohms/mile, multiply by 5.28. To convert to ohms/km, multiply by 3.281.
(5) Based on a conductor temperature of 75C at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind
(90 to conductor), 0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30 northern latitude, sea level elevation, 90 azimuth of line
(East-West), clear atmosphere, and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity
will differ based on local conditions. For specific ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(6) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of a 1 ft radius.

(1) Code words shown, including suffix /AW, denote ACSR with aluminum-clad steel core. See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(4) Based on a conductivity of 61.2% (minimum lot average) IACS at 20C for aluminum and 20.3% IACS at 20C for the aluminum-clad steel core. AC resistance for single-layer and three-layer designs approximates
the effects of core magnetization. To convert to ohms/mile, multiply by 5.28. To convert to ohms/km, multiply by 3.281.
(5) Based on a conductor temperature of 75C at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind
(90 to conductor), 0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30 northern latitude, sea level elevation, 90 azimuth of line
(East-West), clear atmosphere, and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity
will differ based on local conditions. For specific ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(6) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of a 1 ft radius.

Product Construction:
Complete Conductor:
TransPowr ACSR/TW is a trapezoidal aluminum
conductor steel-reinforced concentric-lay-stranded
conductor. The aluminum strands are trapezoidal in
shape.
The wedge-shaped aluminum strands enable
a more compact alignment of the aluminum
wires. Conductor designs that maintain the same
circular mil cross-sectional area of aluminum as
a conventional round conductor result in a TW
conductor that is 10 to 15 percent smaller in overall
diameter. Conductor designs that maintain the same
overall diameter as a conventional round conductor
result in a TW conductor that has 20 to 25 percent
more aluminum cross-sectional area packed in.
The ACSR/TW conductors are manufactured in
accordance with the requirements of the latest issue
of ASTM B779.
The steel strands form the central core of the
conductor, around which is stranded two, three or
four layers of aluminum 1350-H19 wires. The steel
core may consist of a concentric stranded cable
of 7, 19 or more wires. Numerous combinations of
aluminum and steel strands and layers are possible.
The sizes and constructions listed on the following
pages are common examples used in overhead lines.
For ACSR/TW conductors, the standard Class A
galvanized coating is usually adequate for ordinary
environments.

(1) Code words shown denote ACSR/TW with regular-strength Class A galvanized steel core (/GA2). See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(4) Based on a conductivity of 61.2% (minimum lot average) IACS at 20C for aluminum and 8% IACS at 20C for the steel core. AC resistance for single-layer and three-layer designs approximates the effects of core
magnetization. To convert to ohms/mile, multiply by 5.28. To convert to ohms/km, multiply by 3.281.
(5) Based on a conductor temperature of 75C at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind (90 to conductor),
0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30 northern latitude, sea level elevation, 90 azimuth of line (East-West), clear atmosphere,
and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity will differ based on local conditions.
For specific ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(6) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of a 1 ft radius.

(1) Code words shown denote ACSR/TW with regular-strength Class A galvanized steel core (/GA2). See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(4) Based on a conductivity of 61.2% (minimum lot average) IACS at 20C for aluminum and 8% IACS at 20C for the steel core. AC resistance for single-layer and three-layer designs approximates the effects of core
magnetization. To convert to ohms/mile, multiply by 5.28. To convert to ohms/km, multiply by 3.281.
(5) Based on a conductor temperature of 75C at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind (90 to conductor),
0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30 northern latitude, sea level elevation, 90 azimuth of line (East-West), clear atmosphere,
and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity will differ based on local conditions.
For specific ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(6) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of a 1 ft radius.

Product Construction:
Complete Conductor:
ACSS is a composite concentric-lay-stranded
cable. The steel strands form the central core
of the cable, around which is stranded one or
more layers of aluminum 1350-O wires. ACSS
conductors are manufactured in accordance with
the requirements of the latest applicable issue of
ASTM specification B856. The O temper of the
aluminum, a fully annealed or soft temper, causes
most or all of the mechanical load on ACSS to be
carried by the steel. The steel core may consist
of 7, 19, 37 or more wires. Class A zinc coating is
usually adequate for ordinary environments.
Applications:
Aluminum conductor steel-supported (ACSS)
is used for overhead transmission lines. It is
especially useful in reconductoring applications
requiring increased current with existing tensions
and clearances; new line applications where
structures can be economized due to reduced sag;
new line applications requiring high emergency
loadings; and lines where aeolian vibration is a
problem.

(1) Code words shown denote ACSS with regular-strength Class A Galvanized steel core (/GA2). See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(2) Due to rounding, total values may be slightly greater or slightly less than the sum of the component values.
(3) Weights shown are for conductor only and do not include the reel. Normal length and shipping tolerances apply.
Dimensions and weights not designated minimum or maximum are nominal values and subject to manufacturing tolerances. In this context, weight means mass.

(1) Code words shown denote ACSS with regular-strength Class A Galvanized steel core (/GA2). See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(4) Based on a conductivity of 61.2% (minimum lot average) IACS at 20C for aluminum and 8% IACS at 20C for the steel core. AC resistance for single-layer and three-layer designs approximates the effects of core
magnetization. To convert to ohms/mile, multiply by 5.28. To convert to ohms/km, multiply by 3.281.
(5) Based on the given conductor temperature at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind (90 to conductor), 0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30
northern latitude, sea level elevation, 90 azimuth of line (East-West), clear atmosphere, and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity will differ based
on local conditions. For specific ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(6) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of a 1 ft radius.

(1) Code words shown denote ACSS with regular-strength Class A Galvanized steel core (/GA2). See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(2) Due to rounding, total values may be slightly greater or slightly less than the sum of the component values.
(3) Weights shown are for conductor only and do not include the reel. Normal length and shipping tolerances apply.
Dimensions and weights not designated minimum or maximum are nominal values and subject to manufacturing tolerances. In this context, weight means mass.

1000 FT (6)
(1) Code words shown denote ACSS with regular-strength Class A Galvanized steel core (/GA2). See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(4) Based on a conductivity of 61.2% (minimum lot average) IACS at 20C for aluminum and 8% IACS at 20C for the steel core. AC resistance for single-layer and three-layer designs approximates the effects of core magnetization. To
convert to ohms/mile, multiply by 5.28. To convert to ohms/km, multiply by 3.281.
(5) Based on the given conductor temperature at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind (90 to conductor), 0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30 northern latitude, sea
level elevation, 90 azimuth of line (East-West), clear atmosphere, and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity will differ based on local conditions. For specific ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(6) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of a 1 ft radius.

(1) Code words shown denote ACSS with regular-strength Class A Galvanized steel core (/GA2). See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(4) Based on a conductivity of 61.2% (minimum lot average) IACS at 20C for aluminum and 8% IACS at 20C for the steel core. AC resistance for single-layer and three-layer designs approximates the effects of core magnetization. To
convert to ohms/mile, multiply by 5.28. To convert to ohms/km, multiply by 3.281.
(5) Based on the given conductor temperature at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind (90 to conductor), 0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30 northern latitude, sea
level elevation, 90 azimuth of line (East-West), clear atmosphere, and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity will differ based on local conditions. For specific ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(6) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of a 1 ft radius.

Product Construction:
Complete Conductor:
ACSS/AW is a composite concentric-lay-stranded
cable. Aluminum-clad steel strands form the
central core of the cable, around which is stranded
one or more layers of aluminum 1350-O wires.
ACSS/AW conductors are manufactured in
accordance with the latest applicable issue of
ASTM B856. The O temper of the aluminum, a
fully annealed or soft temper, causes most or all
of the mechanical load of ACSS/AW to be carried
by the steel. The aluminum-clad steel core may
consist of 7, 19, 37 or more wires. Numerous
combinations of aluminum and steel strand and
layers are possible. The sizes and strandings listed
on the following pages are those most frequently
used for overhead lines.
Options:
High-strength aluminum-clad steel core
(/AW3)
Trapezoidal-shaped aluminum strands
(/TW)
Non-specular surface finish (/NS)
For other conductor sizes, designs and/or specific
installation requirements not shown in the tables,
contact your General Cable sales representative or
e-mail [email protected].
Applications:
Aluminum conductor steel-supported with
aluminum-clad steel wire (ACSS/AW) are used for
overhead distribution and transmission lines where
a high degree of corrosion resistance is required.

(1) Code words shown, including suffix /AW, denote ACSS with aluminum-clad steel core. See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(4) Based on a conductivity of 63.0% IACS at 20C for aluminum and 20.3% IACS at 20C for the aluminum-clad steel core. AC resistance for single-layer and three-layer designs approximates the effects of core magnetization. To
convert to ohms/mile, multiply by 5.28. To convert to ohms/km, multiply by 3.281.
(5) Based on the given conductor temperature at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind (90 to conductor), 0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30 northern
latitude, sea level elevation, 90 azimuth of line (East-West), clear atmosphere, and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity will differ based on local conditions.
For specific ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(6) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of a 1 ft radius.

(1) Code words shown, including suffix /AW, denote ACSS with aluminum-clad steel core. See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(2) Due to rounding, total values may be slightly greater or slightly less than the sum of the component values.
(3) Weights shown are for conductor only and do not include the reel. Normal length and shipping tolerances apply.
Dimensions and weights not designated minimum or maximum are nominal values and subject to manufacturing tolerances. In this context, weight means mass.

MEGAOHM 1000 FT (6)
(1) Code words shown, including suffix /AW, denote ACSS with aluminum-clad steel core. See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(4) Based on a conductivity of 63.0% IACS at 20C for aluminum and 20.3% IACS at 20C for the aluminum-clad steel core. AC resistance for single-layer and three-layer designs approximates the effects of core magnetization. To
convert to ohms/mile, multiply by 5.28. To convert to ohms/km, multiply by 3.281.
(5) Based on the given conductor temperature at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind (90 to conductor), 0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30 northern
latitude, sea level elevation, 90 azimuth of line (East-West), clear atmosphere, and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity will differ based on local conditions.
For specific ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(6) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of a 1 ft radius.

(1) Code words shown, including suffix /AW, denote ACSS with aluminum-clad steel core. See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(2) Due to rounding, total values may be slightly greater or slightly less than the sum of the component values.
(3) Weights shown are for conductor only and do not include the reel. Normal length and shipping tolerances apply.
Dimensions and weights not designated minimum or maximum are nominal values and subject to manufacturing tolerances. In this context, weight means mass.

(1) Code words shown, including suffix /AW, denote ACSS with aluminum-clad steel core. See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(4) Based on a conductivity of 63.0% IACS at 20C for aluminum and 20.3% IACS at 20C for the aluminum-clad steel core. AC resistance for single-layer and three-layer designs approximates the effects of core magnetization. To
convert to ohms/mile, multiply by 5.28. To convert to ohms/km, multiply by 3.281.
(5) Based on the given conductor temperature at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind (90 to conductor), 0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30 northern
latitude, sea level elevation, 90 azimuth of line (East-West), clear atmosphere, and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity will differ based on local conditions.
For specific ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(6) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of a 1 ft radius.

(1) Code words shown, including suffix /AW, denote ACSS with aluminum-clad steel core. See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(2) Due to rounding, total values may be slightly greater or slightly less than the sum of the component values.
(3) Weights shown are for conductor only and do not include the reel. Normal length and shipping tolerances apply.
Dimensions and weights not designated minimum or maximum are nominal values and subject to manufacturing tolerances. In this context, weight means mass.

(1) Code words shown, including suffix /AW, denote ACSS with aluminum-clad steel core. See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(4) Based on a conductivity of 63.0% IACS at 20C for aluminum and 20.3% IACS at 20C for the aluminum-clad steel core. AC resistance for single-layer and three-layer designs approximates the effects of core magnetization. To convert
to ohms/mile, multiply by 5.28. To convert to ohms/km, multiply by 3.281.
(5) Based on the given conductor temperature at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind (90 to conductor), 0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30 northern
latitude, sea level elevation, 90 azimuth of line (East-West), clear atmosphere, and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity will differ based on local conditions.
For specific ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(6) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of a 1 ft radius.

Product Construction:
Complete Conductor:
TransPowr ACSS/TW is a trapezoidal aluminum
conductor steel-supported concentric-lay-stranded
conductor. The aluminum strands are trapezoidal
in shape.
The wedge-shaped aluminum strands enable
a more compact alignment of the aluminum
wires. Conductor designs that maintain the same
circular mil cross-sectional area of aluminum
as a conventional round conductor result in a
TW conductor that is 10 to 15 percent smaller in
overall diameter. Conductor designs that maintain
the same overall diameter as a conventional round
conductor result in a TW conductor that has 20 to
25 percent more aluminum cross-sectional area
packed in.
The ACSS/TW conductors are manufactured in
accordance with the requirements of the latest
issue of ASTM B857.
The steel strands form the central core of the
conductor, around which is stranded two, three or
four layers of aluminum 1350 O temper (annealed)
wires. The steel core may consist of a concentric
stranded cable of 7, 19 or more wires. Numerous
combinations of aluminum and steel strands and
layers are possible. The sizes and constructions
listed on the following pages are common
examples used in overhead lines.
The steel core wires are protected from corrosion
by galvanizing. For ACSS/TW conductors, the
standard Class A galvanized coating is usually
adequate for ordinary environments.

Applications:
Trapezoidal aluminum conductors steel-supported
(ACSS/TW) are used for overhead transmission
lines. They are especially useful in reconductoring
applications requiring increased current with
existing tensions and clearances; new line
applications where structures can be economized
due to reduced sag; new line applications requiring
high emergency loadings; and lines where aeolian
vibration is a problem.
Electrical Parameters:
The electrical parameters for the trapezoidal ACSS
equivalent circular mil area and equivalent overall
diameter conductors may be found in the last table
of this section.

0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30 northern latitude, sea level elevation, 90 azimuth of line (East-West), clear atmosphere,
and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity will differ based on local conditions.
For specific ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(6) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of a 1 ft radius.

(1) Code words shown denote ACSS/TW with regular-strength Class A galvanized steel core (/GA2). See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(4) Based on a conductivity of 61.2% (minimum lot average) IACS at 20C for aluminum and 8% IACS at 20C for the steel core. AC resistance for single-layer and three-layer designs approximates the effects of core
magnetization. To convert to ohms/mile, multiply by 5.28. To convert to ohms/km, multiply by 3.281.
(5) Based on the given conductor temperature at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind (90 to conductor),
0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30 northern latitude, sea level elevation, 90 azimuth of line (East-West), clear atmosphere,
and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity will differ based on local conditions.
For specific ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(6) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of a 1 ft radius.

(1) Code words shown denote ACSS/TW with regular-strength Class A galvanized steel core (/GA2). See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(4) Based on a conductivity of 61.2% (minimum lot average) IACS at 20C for aluminum and 8% IACS at 20C for the steel core. AC resistance for single-layer and three-layer designs approximates the effects of core
magnetization. To convert to ohms/mile, multiply by 5.28. To convert to ohms/km, multiply by 3.281.
(5) Based on the given conductor temperature at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind (90 to conductor),
0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30 northern latitude, sea level elevation, 90 azimuth of line (East-West), clear atmosphere,
and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity will differ based on local conditions.
For specific ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(6) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of a 1 ft radius.

Product Construction:
Complete Conductor:
AAC/T-2 is a twisted pair of stranded aluminum
conductors twisted around each other at nine-foot
intervals. AAC/T-2 conductors are manufactured
in accordance with the requirements of the latest
applicable issues of ASTM specifications B230,
B231 and B911. The sizes and strandings listed
on the following pages are those most frequently
used for overhead lines. Additional sizes and
strandings are available.

(2) Based on a conductivity of 61.2% (minimum lot average) IACS at 20C for aluminum and 8% IACS at 20C for the steel core. AC resistance for single-layer and three-layer designs approximates the effects of core magnetization.
To convert to ohms/mile, multiply by 5.28. To convert to ohms/km, multiply by 3.281.
(3) Based on the given conductor temperature at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind (90 to conductor), 0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30 northern latitude,
sea level elevation, 90 azimuth of line (East-West), clear atmosphere, and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity will differ based on local conditions. For specific
ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(4) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of a 1 ft radius.

(2) Based on a conductivity of 61.2% (minimum lot average) IACS at 20C for aluminum and 8% IACS at 20C for the steel core. AC resistance for single-layer and three-layer designs approximates the effects of core magnetization.
To convert to ohms/mile, multiply by 5.28. To convert to ohms/km, multiply by 3.281.
(3) Based on the given conductor temperature at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind (90 to conductor), 0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30 northern latitude,
sea level elevation, 90 azimuth of line (East-West), clear atmosphere, and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity will differ based on local conditions. For specific
ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(4) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of a 1 ft radius.

Product Construction:
Complete Conductor:
ACSR/T-2 is a pair of stranded aluminum, steel
reinforced conductors twisted around each other
at nine foot intervals. ACSR/T-2 conductors are
manufactured in accordance with the latest
applicable issue of ASTM B911. The sizes and
strandings listed on the following pages are those
most frequently used for overhead lines. The
steel core wires are protected by galvanizing,
aluminizing or aluminum cladding. The standard
Class A zinc coating is usually adequate for
ordinary environments. For greater protection,
Class B and C galvanized coatings, aluminized or
aluminum-clad steel cores may be specified.
12/7
24/7
Applications:
ACSR/T-2 conductors are used for overhead
distribution and transmission lines which are
subject to wind-induced motion damage.
Options:
High-conductivity aluminum (/HC)
(62.0% IACS)
Regular-strength Class C galvanized steel core
(/GC2)
High-strength Class A galvanized steel
core (/GA3)
Regular-strength Class A zinc-5% aluminum
mischmetal alloy-coated steel core (/MA2)
High-strength Class A zinc-5% aluminum
mischmetal alloy-coated steel core (/MA3)
Aluminum-clad steel core (/AW)
For other conductor sizes, designs and/or specific
installation requirements not shown in the tables,

(1) Code words shown denote ACSR/T-2 with Class A Galvanized steel core (/GA2). See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(2) Due to rounding, total values may be slightly greater or slightly less than the sum of the component values.
(3) Weights shown are for conductor only and do not include the reel. Normal length and shipping tolerances apply.
Dimensions and weights not designated minimum or maximum are nominal values and subject to manufacturing tolerances. In this context, weight means mass.

(1) Code words shown denote ACSR/T-2 with Class A Galvanized steel core (/GA2). See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(2) Based on a conductivity of 61.2% (minimum lot average) IACS at 20C for aluminum and 8% IACS at 20C for the steel core. AC resistance for single-layer and three-layer designs approximates the effects of core
magnetization. To convert to ohms/mile, multiply by 5.28. To convert to ohms/km, multiply by 3.281.
(3) Based on the given conductor temperature at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind (90 to conductor),
0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30 northern latitude, sea level elevation, 90 azimuth of line (East-West), clear atmosphere,
and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity will differ based on local conditions.
For specific ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(4) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of 1 ft radius.

(1) Code words shown denote ACSR/T-2 with Class A Galvanized steel core (/GA2). See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(2) Based on a conductivity of 61.2% (minimum lot average) IACS at 20C for aluminum and 8% IACS at 20C for the steel core. AC resistance for single-layer and three-layer designs approximates the effects of core
magnetization. To convert to ohms/mile, multiply by 5.28. To convert to ohms/km, multiply by 3.281.
(3) Based on the given conductor temperature at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind (90 to conductor),
0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30 northern latitude, sea level elevation, 90 azimuth of line (East-West), clear atmosphere,
and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity will differ based on local conditions.
For specific ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(4) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of 1 ft radius.

(1) Code words shown denote ACSR/T-2 with Class A Galvanized steel core (/GA2). See the Options section to find the appropriate code word modifier designation for alternative design options.
(2) Based on a conductivity of 61.2% (minimum lot average) IACS at 20C for aluminum and 8% IACS at 20C for the steel core. AC resistance for single-layer and three-layer designs approximates the effects of core magnetization.
To convert to ohms/mile, multiply by 5.28. To convert to ohms/km, multiply by 3.281.
(3) Based on the given conductor temperature at 60 Hz and the following conditions: 25C ambient temperature, 2 ft/sec crosswind (90 to conductor), 0.5 coefficient of emissivity, 0.5 coefficient of absorbtivity, 30 northern latitude, sea
level elevation, 90 azimuth of line (East-West), clear atmosphere, and a date and time of noon on July 1 (resulting in 96.0 W/ft of solar and sky radiated heat). Actual ampacity will differ based on local conditions. For specific ampacities, please contact your General Cable sales representative.
(4) Values for inductive reactance and capacitive reactance are expressed in terms of 1 ft radius.

Product Construction:
Complete Conductor:
Weatherproof line wire consists of one aluminum
conductor covered with polyethylene. Weatherproof
line wire meets the requirements of ICEA
S-70-547. Conductors meet ASTM Specifications
B231 and B232 as applicable.
Conductor:
Solid, Class A or Class AA concentric-lay-stranded
aluminum alloy 1350-H19 or ACSR conductor. The
direction of the lay of the outer layer of stranded
wires is right-hand.
Covering:
Either black Linear Low-Density Polyethylene
(LLDPE) or black extruded Cross-Linked Polyethylene
(XLPE) covers the wire for weatherproofing purposes
only. There is no voltage rating assigned.
Applications:
Weatherproof line wire is used for overhead
transmission and distribution lines. Covered
line wire is not an electrically insulated cable.
Therefore, it should be installed on insulators, and
users should treat line wire as bare conductor for
personal safety.
For other conductor sizes, designs and/or specific
installation requirements not shown in the tables,
contact your General Cable sales representative or
e-mail [email protected].

If a forklift is used, approach the reel from the flange side. Position the forks such that the reel is lifted
by both reel flanges. Do not allow the lift forks to contact the cable. Care must be taken by the forklift
operator not to make sudden turns or stops.
Cable shipped on pallets should be stored indoors if possible. Cable shipped on wooden or metal reels
may be stored outdoors. When selecting a storage site, consideration should be given to:
Traffic patterns during off-loading
Grade and condition of the soil or pavement
Protection from vehicle damage during the time in storage
Environmental conditions such as exposure to heat, corrosive chemicals, etc.

Packaging Information
If cable reels must be pancaked or stored in vertical racks, do not lift the reel by the top flange. Spacers
placed under the bottom flange and between reels (two 2x4s placed wide side up) create a space to insert
the forks and lift the reel without damaging the cable. If nails are used to secure the spacers, make sure
the nails do not go through the flange and into the cable.
Dont
Do
When possible, the reel wrap or lagging supplied on the reels should be replaced to help protect the cable
from inadvertent damage. Under extreme environmental conditions, other measures may be necessary.
To prevent entrance of water, cable ends should be sealed with plastic end caps. Electrical tape does not
offer a sufficient seal. When lengths are cut, cable ends should be immediately resealed and secured.
Low temperatures are a cause for concern when installing cable. Cable should not be installed when
the ambient temperatures are less than the cold bend temperature rating of the cable product plus 15C
(i.e., the minimum installation temperature = cold bend temperature rating + 15C). When applicable, the
cold bend temperature rating is indicated on the individual product page in this catalog. Polyethylene
insulated jacketed low-voltage cables and polyethylene jacketed medium-voltage power cables are
suitable for storage and operation at -40C and should not be handled or installed when the temperature
of the cable or the ambient temperature is below -25C. For other cable designs, cold weather installation
may be limited to higher ambient temperatures. For more information about a specific construction,
please contact your General Cable sales representative.
If installations are to be carried out where the cable and/or the ambient temperature is below the limit
specified above, the cable should first be warmed for a minimum of 48 hours at room temperature
(15C) or higher prior to handling. Cable should be pulled more slowly and trained in place the same
day it is removed from storage. Do not impact, drop, kink or bend cable sharply at low temperatures.

Covered and Insulated Cable (Reel or Coil)
Unless otherwise agreed upon at time of quotation
Standard or special lengths are subject to a manufacturing length tolerance per shipping
reel of plus or minus 10% from the specified shipping reel length.
An amount not exceeding 10% of the total quantity of any order may be shipped in
random lengths, with no one length shorter than 80% nor greater than 120% of the
specified shipping reel length.
For product shipped in coils, 90% of an order quantity shall be furnished in exact lengths
as specified in General Cable catalog pages. Exact lengths are specified as having a minus
0% tolerance. Up to 10% of a total order quantity may be supplied in random lengths, with
no one length shorter than 90% of the specified coil length.
For multiplex service drop cable shipped in coils on pallets, the quantity of coils must be in
full pallet load quantities.
With the exception of cable sold from stock, in support of the Green Initiative and reducing
waste, reels are shipped without a reel wrap covering.

Reeless Package
The reeless package was introduced by
General Cable in 1999 as a means to help
utilities with the growing concern of disposal
and landfill costs. This is accomplished by
supplying material without the wooden reel
traditionally used for distribution of wire and
cable; instead, material is supplied in a coil
with exact dimensions that will allow utilities
to pay off by the use of either molded plastic
or tubular steel reels, reels on a turntable or
turntable in conjunction with a dome. Before
shipment, wire coils are protected by plastic
strapping and stretch wrap. They are then
loaded in a trailer in a triangular fashion or
on a pallet.
The reeless package system is a cost-effective
means of delivering cable products, saving
in material, transportation and landfill costs.
In addition, there are savings opportunities
for storage costs, as the coils take up less
physical space than traditional cable on reels.
When used with a turntable or turntable and
dome, the reeless package offers 360 payoff
abilitya significant benefit when installing
cable with limited set-up area.
For further information on General Cable BICC
Brand reeless packaging, please consult your
local representative.
