Specifications

1.Application

Covered Line Wire is used primarily for 600V overhead secondary distribution lines. It is not an electrically insulted conductor and is trated as bare conductor when installed.

2.Construction

Concentric strand or compressed 1350-H19, 6201-T81, or ACSR conductors, concentrically stranded and covered for weather proofing with polyethylene , high density polyethylene(HDPE) or crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE). 

3.Note

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

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

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

Ampacity ratings based on 75°c conductor temperature ; 25°c ambient temperature elevation sea level; Emissivity 0.91 coefficient of absorption 0.95; Wind speed 2ft./sec.in sun.
