AAAC Alliance Conductor Cable Raw Material Test

Raw Material Test

For the Alliance AAAC Conductor Cable, raw material testing follows ASTM B398. Aluminum alloy ingots (6201) are analyzed for Mg (0.6-0.9%), Si (0.5-0.9%), and impurities using optical emission spectrometry. Wires undergo conductivity (53% IACS min), tensile (295 MPa min), and elongation (3.5% min) tests with machines. Samples face heat treatment verification at 180°C and microstructure analysis via microscopy for grain uniformity. Corrosion resistance is assessed in humid chambers. The structured process: receipt inspection, random sampling, physical/mechanical testing (diameter 4.05mm), chemical verification, accelerated aging trials, and release decision.

AAAC Alliance Conductor Cable Process inspection

Process inspection

Process inspection in Alliance AAAC Conductor Cable production involves continuous checks per ASTM B399. Wire drawing monitors the diameter (4.05mm ±0.03mm) and ovality with calipers. Solution heat treatment logs temperature (500-550°C) for hardening. Aging maintains 180°C for the T81 temper. Stranding verifies 7-wire lay (12-16 times diameter) and compression. Surface and marking are assessed online. Critical steps: pre-process homogenization confirmation, parameter stabilization (speed 20m/min), in-line tensile sampling, defect scanning, and rework. This multi-point assurance maintains the Alliance AAAC Conductor Cable's uniform temper, tight stranding, mechanical balance, and standard compliance for optimal overhead installation.

AAAC Alliance Conductor Cable Finished Product

Finished Product

Finished Alliance AAAC Conductor Cable testing confirms ASTM B399 specs. Routine checks: diameter (12.15mm), weight (274 kg/km), resistance (0.339 Ω/km). Mechanical: tensile (8.5 kN min), elongation. Process steps: sample cutting, grip mounting, load to failure, data recording, and fracture examination. Corrosion: 1000-hour salt spray. Additional: sag-tension at 75°C, weather cycling. Passing confirms the Alliance AAAC Conductor Cable's low expansion, high ampacity, corrosion resistance, and suitability for overhead lines.

Application

Ideal for overhead medium-voltage lines in coastal utilities, wind farms, and grid extensions. Used for spans 200-300m in corrosive environments, connecting transformers to consumers for efficient, lightweight power delivery in urban and rural areas.

FAQ From Customers

What are the advantages of power cables and overhead lines?
(1) Reliable operation, because it is installed in a hidden place such as underground, it is less damaged by external forces, has less chance of failure, and the power supply is safe, and it will not cause harm to people;
(2) The maintenance workload is small and frequent inspections are not required;
(3) No need to erect towers;
(4) Help improve power factor.
Which aspects should be considered when choosing the cross section of a power cable?
(1) The long-term allowable working current of the cable;
(2) Thermal stability once short circuited;
(3) The voltage drop on the line cannot exceed the allowable working range.
What are the measures for cable fire prevention?
(1) Use flame-retardant cables;
(2) Use fireproof cable tray;
(3) Use fireproof paint;
(4) Fire partition walls and fire baffles are installed at cable tunnels, mezzanine exits, etc.;
(5) Overhead cables should avoid oil pipelines and explosion-proof doors, otherwise local pipes or heat insulation and fire prevention measures should be taken.
What should be paid attention to during the transportation and handling of cables?
(1) During transportation, loading and unloading, cables and cable reels should not be damaged. It is strictly forbidden to push the cable reels directly from the vehicle. Generally, cables should not be transported and stored flat.
(2) Before transporting or rolling the cable reel, ensure that the cable reel is firm, the cable is wound tightly, the oil pipe between the oil-filled cable and the pressure oil tank should be fixed without damage, the pressure oil tank should be firm, and the pressure indication should meet the requirements.
What inspections should be carried out for the acceptance of cable lines?
(1) The cable specifications should meet the regulations, the arrangement should be neat, no damage, and the signs should be complete, correct and clear;
(2) The fixed bending radius of the cable, the related distance and the wiring of the metal sheath of the single-core power cable should meet the requirements;
(3) The cable terminal and the middle head should not leak oil, and the installation should be firm. The oil pressure of the oil-filled cable and the meter setting should meet the requirements;
(4) Good grounding;
(5) The color of the cable terminal is correct, and the metal parts such as the bracket are completely painted;
(6) There should be no debris in the cable trench, tunnel, and bridge, and the cover should be complete.
