AAC BARE OVERHEAD SUPPORTING NEUTRAL
AAC - All Aluminum Conductor - 1350 Series Alloy
Engineering Specifications:
Standards:
ASTM B230: Standard Specification for Aluminum 1350-H19 Wire for Electrical Purposes.
ASTM B231: Standard Specification for Concentric-Lay-Stranded Aluminum 1350 Conductors.
Construction:
Conductors:
Stranded, Concentric-Lay Aluminum Conductors,1350 Series Alloy per ASTM B231.
Assembly:
AAC bare overhead supporting neutrals are concentric-lay-stranded aluminum alloy 1350 conductors with a straight, round central wire surrounded by one or more layers of helically
applied wires. Outer layer has right-handed lay.
APPLICATIONS:
Suitable for overhead transmission and distribution applications that do not require the rated strength of ACSR type neutrals. Encore's AAC overhead neutrals include Class AA for
bare conductors usually used in overhead lines, and/or Class A for conductors to be covered with weather-resistant materials. Class A also for bare conductors where greater
flexibility is required.

ACSR BARE OVERHEAD SUPPORTING NEUTRAL
ACSR - ALUMINUM CONDUCTOR STEEL REINFORCED - 1350 SERIES ALLOY WITH STEEL SUPPORT CENTER WIRE
ENGINEERING SPECIFICATIONS
Standards
ASTM B230: Standard Specification for Aluminum 1350-H19 Wire for Electrical Purposes
ASTM B232: Standard Specification for Concentric-Lay-Stranded Aluminum Conductors, Coated-Steel Reinforced (ACSR)
CONSTRUCTION
Conductors
Stranded, Concentric-Lay Aluminum 1350 Series Conductors with Steel Support Center Wire(s) per ASTM B232
Assembly
ACSR bare overhead supporting neutrals are concentric-lay-stranded conductors with a single steel core wire or stranded steel core wires surrounded by one
or more layers of helically applied aluminum alloy 1350 wires. Outer layer has right-handed lay.
APPLICATIONS
Suitable for overhead transmission and distribution applications that require rated strengths for steel support. Encore's ACSR overhead neutrals include Class AA for bare conductors
commonly used in overhead lines, and/or Class A for conductors to be covered with weather-resistant materials.

AAAC BARE OVERHEAD SUPPORTING NEUTRAL
AAAC - ALL ALUMINUM ALLOY CONDUCTOR - 6201 ALLOY
Engineering Specifications:
Standards:
ASTM B398: Standard Specification for Aluminum-Alloy 6201-T81 Wire for Electrical Purposes.
ASTM B399: Standard Specification for Concentric-Lay-Stranded Aluminum-Alloy 6201-T81 Conductors.
Construction:
Conductors:
Stranded, Concentric-Lay Aluminum Alloy 6201 Conductors per ASTM B399.
Assembly:
AAAC bare overhead supporting neutrals are concentric-lay-stranded aluminum alloy 6201-T81 conductors in one or more layers wrapped helically around a central core.
Outer layer has right-handed lay.
Applications:
Suitable for overhead transmission and distribution applications that require rated strengths for 6201 alloy at a T81 temper. Encore's AAAC overhead neutrals include Class AA for bare
conductors usually used in overhead lines, and/or Class A for conductors to be covered with weather-resistant materials.

TYPE duplex - EC-1350 SERIES aLUMINUM - overhead service DROP - 600V
AAAC - aluminum conductor 6201 alloy supporting NEUTRAL
Engineering Specifications:
Standards:
ANSI/ICEA S-76-474; ASTM B233; ASTM B836; ASTM B399; ARRA 2009/FAR Subpart 25.6 “Buy American” Compliant.
Construction:
Conductors:
Insulated Conductor: Compact Stranded Conductors, Aluminum Alloy 1350 Series per ASTM B230; ASTM B609; ASTM B231; ASTM B836.
Neutral Conductor: Stranded Aluminum 6201 Alloy Conductor (AAAC) Bare Supporting Neutral per ASTM B398; ASTM B399.
Insulation:
Cross-link polyethylene (XLPE) black insulation per ANSI/ICEA S-76-474, rated 90°C wet or dry.
Applications:
Duplex overhead service drop cable with bare stranded AAAC 6201 aluminum alloy supporting neutral is designed for applications not exceeding 600 volts with a maximum conductor
operating temperature of 90°C wet or dry. Primarily used for delivering single phase power from secondary power lines or pole mounted transformers to service entrance heads of a
building or structure. Suitable for 120 volt aerial service for outdoor lighting or for temporary service at construction sites.
Features:
Duplex overhead service drop cable has one black XLPE insulated aluminum conductor cabled around a bare stranded AAAC 6201 aluminum alloy supporting neutral. Superior weather-,
abrasion-, crush-, and sunlight-resistant XLPE insulation rated 90°C operation wet or dry. Manufactured and tested according to ANSI/ICEA S-76-474: Standard for Neutral Supported
Power Cable Assemblies with Weather-Resistant Extruded Insulations Rated 600 Volts. Insulated conductor is surface printed for identification.
