High Quality Aerial Bundle Conductor-ABC Cable

Type:Duplex Service Drop, Triplex Service Drop, Quadruplex Service Drop
Duplex Service Drop
Applications:To supply 120 volt aerial service for temporary service at construction sites,outdoor or street lighting . For service at 600 volts or lower at a conductor temperature of 75 maximum.
Triplex Service Drop
Applications: To supply power from the ulility`s lines to the consumer`s weatherhead. For service at 600 volts or less(phase to phase ) at a conductor temperature of 75 maximum for PE insulation or 90 maximum for XLPE insulation .
Quadruplex Service Drop
Applications: Used to supply 3 phase power , usually from a pole-mounted transformer to the use`s servic head where connection to the service entance cable is made . To be used at voltages of 600 volts or less phase to phase and at conductor temperature not to exceed 75 for PE insulated conductors or 90 for XLPE insulated conductors.
Product Description
Low Voltage Aerial Bundled Cable/ Low Voltage ABC Cable

The basic construction is as follows:
3 power cores consisting of standard aluminium conductors, insulated withXLPE insulation
+ One sheath lighting aluminium conductor with XLPE insulation(optional)
+ One messenger Al-alloy conductor (bare or covered)

The messenger conductor can be of galvanised steel wire also.
The purpose of messenger wire is
A) It acts as load bearing wire.
B) It acts as earth or neutral conductor.

Standards
GB12527-91,IEC502, BS7870-5
Other standards such as BS,DIN and ICEA upon request
Constructions
Conductor: Round, stranded and compacted aluminum conductor
Insulation: HDPE, XLPE, PVC

Applications
Aerial Bunch Cables are basically a compromise construction between Power cables and Overhead conductors. It is preferred to use of ABC cables instead of uninsulated conductors at low voltage networks. ABC cables are especially used at areas where the cost of underground networks is expensive and also for electrification of rural areas like villages. Bundles can include one or two additional conductors for public lighting and control pair.

To be used at cotages of 600V phase-to-phase or less and at conductor temperatures not to exceed 75oC for polyethylene insulated conductors or 90oC for crossliked polyethylene(XLPE) insulated conductors.
ABC CABLE Specification
(1) PHASE CONDUCTORS :
Phase conductors made of aluminium wires are circular stranded, rounded and compacted with smooth circular surface.Our products are avaible 16 mm2 as solid, 25 to 70 mm2 7 wired; from 95 mm2 to onwards as 19 wired confirming TS 11654.
(2) MESSENGER (NEUTRAL) CONDUCTOR :
Bare, round, stranded and compacted aluminium alloy (294 N/mm2).
(3) INSULATION :
Phase conductors of Aerial Bundled Cables are insulated by black coloured PE or XLPE which are weather resistant.
(4) CORE IDENTIFICATION :
Phase conductors two, three and four longitudinal ridges, street lighting conductor without ridges.
(5) USAGE AREA & ADVANTAGES OF ABC SYSTEMS
The usage of Aerial Bundled Cables in low voltage networks provides important saving in installation costs, while it ensures the same reliability and safety, replaces bare conductors in overhead distribution lines and increased very rapidly all around the world.
