EPD: Aluminum conductor steel-supported with aluminum-clad steel wire (ACSS/AW) bare overhead cable (Prysmian)

Product Name: TransPowr® ACSS/AW Bare Overhead ConductorProduct Characteristic: aluminum-clad steel strands for the central core, around which is stranded one or more layers of aluminum 1350-O wires, concentrically strandedThe TransPowr® ACSS/AW Bare Overhead Conductor is a composite concentric-lay-stranded cable. Aluminum-clad steel strands form the central core of the cable, around which is stranded one or more layers of aluminum 1350-O wires. The AW core gives ACSS/AW conductors the advantages of standard ACSS along with the light weight and good conductivity of aluminum and the high tensile strength and ruggedness of steel. ACSS/AW can operate continuously at high temperatures (250°C) without damage, allowing for a significant increase in conductor current-carrying capacity. This EPD includes results for the following products: DRAKE/ACSS/AW2
