AAAC Conductor
Eland Product Group A4a
Application
AAAC is used as a bare overhead conductor for power transmission and distribution lines, on aerial circuits that require a larger mechanical resist-
ance than AAC, and a better corrosion resistance than ACSR. The sag characteristics and the strength-to-weight ratio of AAAC is better than
AAC / ACSR.

1. Resistance is calculated using ASTM standard increments of stranding, and metal conductivity of 52.5% IACS. AC resistance at 60 Hz.
2. Current ratings are based on 75C conductor temperature, 250C ambient, 2 ft/s wind, 96/watts/sq.foot sun, 0.5 coefficients of emissivity and absorption.
