Specifications

Applications

Covered Line Wire is used primarily for 600 v overhead secondary distribution lines. It is not an electrically insulated conductor and is treated as bare conductor when installed.

Construction

Conductors are aluminum alloy 1350-H19, 6201-T81 or ACSR conductors, concentrically stranded and coverd for weahter proofing with polyethylene, high density polyethylene(HDPE) or crosslinked polyethylene(XLPE).

Standards

ASTM B-230, B 231, B 232, B 399

ICEAS-61-402 and S-66-524

Note

The code words as given apply to conventinonal polyethylene line wire.

Available in 500 ft coils or long lengths on reels. The data is approximate and subject to normal manufacturing tolerences.

For 6201 aluminum conductors diameter equivalent to ACSR construction or 1350 aluminum equivalent.

Ampacity ratings based on 75 degree conductors temperature, 25 degree ambient temperature elevation sea leval, Emissivity 0.91 coefficiemnt of absorption 0.95,Wind speed 2ft/sec, in sun.

To dertermine current ampacity by conductor size, pleae consult the national electric code, lastest edition.
