Al/XLPE Overhead ABC Cable (Aerial Boundled Cable)/Drop Service Cable

1. Application of Service Drop Cable:
Service Drop Cable(ABC CABLE) are mainly used for electric power tranmission, rebuilding of urban and forest regions. They can improves safety and reliance of electrified wire netting.
2. Types of Service Drop Cable:
Service Drop Cable(ABC CABLE) covers mainly three types:
Duplex Service Drop     Triplex Service Drop      Quadruplex Service Drop
2.1 Duplex Service Drop
Applications
To supply 120 volt aerial service for temporary service at construction sites, outdoor or street lighting. For service at 600 volts or lower at a conductor temperature of 75 maximum.
2.2 Triplex Service Drop
Applications

To supply power from the ulility`s lines to the consumer`s weatherhead. For service at 600 volts or less(phase to phase ) at a conductor temperature of 75 maximum for PE insulation or 90 maximum for XLPE insulation.
2.3 Quadruplex Service Drop
Applications
To supply 3 phase power,  from a pole-mounted transformer to the use`s servic head where connection to the service entance cable is made. To be used at voltages of 600 volts or less phase to phase and at conductor temperature not to exceed 75 for PE insulated conductors or 90 for XLPE insulated conductors.
