ACAR Conductor

Core: Aluminum alloy wires 6201-T81
Outer Layers: Aluminum wires 1350H-19Some of the constructions include alternate wires (1350-H19 and alloy 6201-T81) in the same layer.
Conductor: This bare concentric-lay stranded conductor is made from round aluminum 1350-H19(extra hard) wires and round aluminum-alloy 6201-T81 core wires for use as overhead electrical conductors. These conductors are also manufactured as compact conductors if required.
