All Aluminum Conductors
(AAAC)
All Aluminum Alloy wires , stranded in successive layers, in opposite direction to form the Aluminum stranded AAAC conductor.
All Aluminum-Alloy Conductors (AAAC) can be used in Medium, High and Extra-High voltage transmission lines. AAAC offers better sag performance due to the high strength-to-weight ratio provided by the aluminum-alloy. In addition, AAAC provides a higher corrosion resistance than ACSR conductors. They are also used a messenger to support overhead electrical cables.
