*ACCC® conductor is produced with 1350 O-tempered aluminum. The nominal H-19 Aluminum equivaelnt area is 433.8 sq. mm (856.1 kcmil)
**ACCC® Conductors are required to exhibit lay lengths (ratios) that conform to ASTM B 857 or EN 50540.
1) Based on 96% of the annealed aluminum minimum tensile strength given in ASTM B 609 and EN 50540.
2) Strength at ambient temperature
3) Conditions: 2 ft/s (0.61 m/s) wind, 0 ft (0 m) Elevation, 0.5 Emis. 0.5 absorp. 40°C Ambient temperature, 96 W/sq. ft (1033 W/sq. m) sun radiation
4) Maximum continuous operating temperature of ACCC® is 180°C and a maximum emergency temperature of 200°C (10,000 hours over the life of the conductor).
The information contained herein is offered in good faith. The ACCC® manufacturer’s specification may have some variation from the indicated values in this spec
sheet, with the weight and cross sectional area being no more than ±2% of the value indicated.
