Applications and Product description
For areas with overhead power lines that have a potential for contact with trees or other debris.
Tree wire consists of a single conductor (AAC, AAAC, or ACSR) covered with either a single layer of thermoset track-resistant covering, a two-layer thermoset covering with a track-resistant outer layer, or a three-layer thermoset covering with a track-resistant outer layer and a thermoset semi-conductive conductor shield. These designs may be used as a spacer cable with the appropriate accessories.
Tree Wire/Spacer Cable is manufactured to ICEA S-121-733 and is available in either black or gray. All designs are rated for 90°C normal service operation, 130°C emergency overload, and 250°C short circuit in accordance with ICEA S-121-733.
Conductors:
AAC – compact stranding, 1350-H19 aluminum made to ASTM B400
AAAC – concentric stranding, 6201-81 aluminum alloy made to ASTM B399
ACSR – concentric stranding, 1350-19 aluminum with GA2 steel core made to ASTM B232
Coverings:
Single Layer: TR-HDXLPE – Track Resistant High-Density Cross-Linked Polyethylene
Two Layer: XLPE/TR-HDXLPE – Cross-Linked Polyethylene/Track Resistant High Density Cross-Linked Polyethylene.
Three Layer: SCS/XLPE/TR-HDXLPE – Thermoset Semiconductive Conductor Shield/Cross-Linked Polyethylene/Track Resistant High Density Cross-Linked Polyethylene.
