All Aluminium Alloy Conductors (AAAC)

AAC conductor is made from aluminum-magnesium-silicon alloy of high electrical conductivity containing magnesium (0.6-0.9%) & silicon (0.5-0.9%) to give it better mechanical properties after treatment. AAC conductors are generally made out of aluminum alloy 6201 (minimum conductivity is 54%). AAC conductor has a better corrosion resistance and better strength to weight ratio and improved electrical conductivity than ACSR conductor on equal diameter basis.

Key Benefits:

• High tensile strength as compared to AAC conductor.
• Higher conductivity as compared to ACSR conductor.
• Better corrosion resistance than ACSR conductor.
