[pdf] [/pdf] [short] 4/0 Oxlip All Aluminum Conductor AAC Allowable Ampacity for 4/0 Oxlip All Aluminum Conductor AAC: 383 Amps Applications: AAC, or All Aluminum Conductor, is an electrical cable mainly used for distribution services as well as overhead transmission in outdoor premises due to the high-quality water-resistant aluminum conductor. The AAC cable can be of two classes: class AA cables are with bare conductors to be used in overhead lines, and class A is for an electrical wire with both bare conductors for increased flexibility and conductors with a weather-resistant cover. Also Known As: 4/0 oxlip all aluminum conductor, 4/0 oxlip all aluminum conductor table, 4/0 oxlip aac all aluminum conductor, 4/0 oxlip aac cable, 4/0 oxlip aluminum alloy cable, 4/0 oxlip abrasive resistant cable, 4/0 oxlip transmission overhead, 4/0 oxlip overhead power line components. Standards: 1350-H19 for Electrical Purposes Concentric-Lay-Stranded Aluminum 1350 conductors Requirements of the National Electrical Code ASTM B-230 & B-23 Construction Conductors: AAC cable has a concentric lay stranded conductor consisting of Aluminum Alloy 1350-H19 wires and is available in both single-layer and multi-layer constructions. Note: AAC ampacity is based on 75ºC conductor temperature, 25 ºC ambient, 2ft1s wind, 961 watts/sq. foot sun, 0.5 coefficients of emissivity and absorption. Specifications: Conductor Size: 4/0 Stranding: 7 Class: AA, A Diameter Inches: Indiv. Wire: 0.1739 Diameter Inches: O.D: 0.522 Cross Sectional Area (sq. inches): 0.1622 Approx. Weight lb/1000FT: 198.6 Approx. Rated Strength (lbs.): 3,830 Ampacity: 383 Amps [/short] Application: AAAC – All Aluminum Alloy Conductor is used for primarily and secondary overhead transmission and distributionservices. AAAC conductor is designed utilizing a high-strength aluminum alloy to achieve a high strength-to-weight ratio and better sag characteristic. AAAC conductor has a higher resistance to corrosion than ACSR. Conductors: AAAC conductor is a concentric lay stranded conductor consisting of Aluminum Alloy 6201-T81 wires, similar in appearance to a 1350 grade aluminum conductor. Notes: DC resistance at 20°C of the 6201-T81 alloy has a greater resistance to abrasion than conductors of 1350-H19 grade aluminum. Standards: ASTM B-398 & B-399 Requirements of the National Electrical Code
