Products Application
Used for primary and secondary overhead distribution where limited space is available or desirable for rights of way. Installed as an uninsulated conductor; however, covering is effective in preventing direct shorts and instantaneous flashovers should tree limbs or other objects contact conductors in such close proximity.The resulting close-proximity configuration minimizes the amount of space and hardware required for line installation;particularly useful in congested areas such as alleyways or tight corridors.Product Construction
Conductors are concentrically stranded, AAC (1350-H19), either compressed or full compact depending on conductor size, AAAC or ACSR. Available with high-density track-resistant polyethylene (HDTRPE) or Track-Resistant Crosslinked Polyethylene (XLPE)
covering. Strand shield option available as shown in illustration.Product Standards
