1. Data shown are subject to normal manufacturing tolerances.


2. Class AA stranding is usually specified for bare conductors used on overhead lines. Class A stranding is usually specified for conductors to be
covered with weatheNesistant (weatherproof) materials and used for bare conductors where greater flexibility is required than afforded by Class
AA The direction of lay of the outside layer of wires with Class AA and Class A will be unless otherwise specified.

Direct current (de) resistance is the same as given in Tables 4-6 and for corresponding sizes; ac resistance and reaciance may be taken as
the values for Class A conductors of equivalent size, as the slight difference caused by stranding variation is not significant in usual
engineering calculations. For ampaclty ratings of bare conductors, interpolate from Figs. and 3-12.

1. Data shown are subject to normal manufacturing tolerances.
2. Direct current (de) resistance is computed on same basis as that of Table 4-6.
3, The ampacity ratings of oompacHound bare conductors differ slightly from those of regular types of same sizes because of
reduction of exposed surface, but the compacting in the cabte somewhat offsets this by improving thermal transfer within the cable,
4, The values of GMR and inductive and capacitive reactances listed in Tables 4-6 and 4-7 may be used for compacted cable without
significant error for usual design applications.

1. Data shown are subject to normal manufacturing tolerances,


2. Direct current {de) resistance is based on 19.755 ohm..anil/ft, at 2ifC, 52.5% lACS, with standard stranding increment of 2 percent.
3. Alternating current (ae) is based on de resistance corrected for temperature. using 0,00347 as temperature coefficient of resistivity per degree
C at 2O'C. and for skin effect
4. For ampacity ratings of bare conductors. see Figs, and 3-12 and adjuslvalues according to method described in accompanying text.
5. As the values of GMR and inductive and capacitive reactances of any stranded cable of a specified outside diameter are closely
equal, the values of GMA, etc., of Tables 4·6 and 4·7 may be used for the above table if the diameters are equal. If the same diameter is not
found in Tables 4-6 and 4-7 as 1he above table, interpolation from the nearest readily obtains the desired GMA, elc.

1. Direct current (de) resistance is based on 16.946 (61.2% lACS) at 20°C for nominal aluminum area of the conductors, and 129.64
ohm-cmillft. (8% lACS) at 20°C for the nominal steel area, with standard increments for stranding. ASTM B 232.
2. Alternating current (ac) resistance is based on the resistance corrected for temperature using 0.00404 as temperature coefficient of resistiVity per
degree C for aluminum and 0.0029 per degree C for steel, and for skin effect.
3. The effective ac resistance of 3-layer ACSR increases with current density due to core magnetization. See Chapter 3 for details.
4. For ampacity ratings of bare conductors, see Figs. 3-13 and 3-14.

TABLE 4·17
Bare Aluminum Conductors, Aluminum-Clad Steel
Reinforced (ACSRlAW)
Physical and Electrical Properties

NOTE: For a cable of same dimensions and Code Word, the values in Table 4-14 (A and B) may be used for cross-sectonal
area of aluminum wires; total cross-sectional; the number of wires and diameter of wires in strand; diameter of complete
cable; and diameter of core. The values in Tables 4-15 and 4-16 may be used for GMR, inductive reactance, and capacitive
reactance. For approximate ampacity, multiply value from Fig. 3-13 or 3-14 by the square root of the ratio
of the total aluminum area to the aluminum wire area in circular mils. Thus, for Penguin at 60" rise Fig. 3-13 shows
305 amp. Hence, 305 X (220,4601211,600)'" =
311 for Penguin!AW.

of the core wires is taken into account Electrical properties of the aluminum wires are those of ASTM B 230 and of the core wires are those
of ASTM B 502.

1. Data shown above are subject to normal manufacturing tolerance.


2. Applicable footnotes of Table 4-15 and 4-16 also apply to the above table; that is,the magnetizing currents for single-layer cables are based on
10010 of specified current for 25i>C, 75%. for sooe. and 100% tor 7ftC. Allowance should also be made for GOre magnetization in the
3&-wire cables.
3. For ampacity ratings see Figs. 3·13 and 3·14 and adjust according to the methOd described in the accompanymg text.
4, Electrical data will be close enough to the equivalent size of Ilf.>n·compacted conductor that data for those conductors may be used for practical

1. Data stlown are subject to normal manufacturing tolerances.
2. AlUminum strands are of a trapezoidal shape and thus round wire sjze is not shown.
3. Rated strengths of the complete conductors are calculated In accordance with ASTM B 779.
4. Weights are based on 1350 aluminum and Class A zinc-coated steel.
5, The type no, is the ratio of the steel to aluminum areas expressed as a percentage.

1. Dir.;ct CtJrrent (de) resistance is based on 16.727 ohm-crnil/ft (62.0% lAGS) at 2O'G for nominal aluminum area of the conductors, and 129.64
ohm·cmilift (8.O"k lAGS) at 20'G for the nominal steel area.
2. Alternating current (ac) resistance is based on de resistance corrected for temperature using 0.00409 as temperature coefficient of resistIVity
per degree G for aluminum and 0.0029 per degree G for steel. and for skin effect.
3. The effective ac resistance of a layer ACSRfTW increases with current density due to core magnetization. See Chapter 3 for details.
4. For ampaclty ratings of TW conductors, approximate values can be obtained from Figs. 3-13 and 3-14.

1. Direct current (de) resistance is based on 16.727 ohm-cmillft (62.0% lACS) at 20'C for nominal aluminum area of the conductors. and 129.64
(8.0% lACS) at 20'C for the nominal steel area.
2. Alternating current (ac) resistance Is based on de reSistance corrected for temperature using 0.00409 as temperature coefficient of resistivity
per deg,ee C for aluminum and 0.0029 per degree C lor steel, and lor skin effect.
3. The effective ac resistance of 3 layer ACSRt1W increases with current densIty due to core magnetizatiOn. See Chapter 3 for details.
4. For ampacity ,atings 01 TW conductors, apprOximate values can be obtained from Figs. 3-13 and 3-14.
