Acar (Aluminum Conductor Alloy Reinforced) for Overhead Use ASTM B524

1. Description
ACAR Conductor, Aluminum Conductor Aluminium Alloy Reinforced.
(ACAR) is an excellent conductor choice where current carrying capacity, higher strength and a lower conductor weight are critical to the line design.

2. Construction:
The alumium conductor alloy reinforced(ACAR) has concentrically stranded aluminum 1350-H19 wire around a 6201-T81 aluminum alloy core. Typically, the 6201-T81 is the conductor core, but in certain designs, the 1350 H19 and the 6201-T81 wires may be stranded in the same layer.

3. Features
The high strength to weight ratio provided by the 6201-T81 alloy makes ACAR conductors a preferred choice for transmission and distribution projects where:
Conductor with more strength than AAC is required;
Conductor with high current capability is preferred over ACSR or AAAC;
Conductor with lower weight than ACSR is desired;
Conductor with higher corrosion resistance than ACSR is essential.
