AAAC (All Aluminium Alloy Conductor)
Post by: Omega delta electric • Its strength is equal to ACSR but due to absence of steel it is light in weight. • The presence of formation of alloy makes it expensive. • It can be used in distribution level i.e. river crossing. • The difference between ACSR and AAAC is the weight. Being lighter in weight, it is used in transmission and sub-transmission where lighter support structure is required such as mountains, swamps etc. • Due to stronger tensile strength than AAC, it is used for longer spans. • It has lesser sag than AAC. • It has same construction as AAC except the alloy.
