Aluminum Alloy Conductor Cable

Since the early 1900s, aluminum and aluminum alloy conductor materials have been used by electrical utility companies for the transmission of electrical power within power grids across the country. In fact, over the years, aluminum has largely displaced copper conductors for these functions and has become the standard material for use in power transmission and distribution. If you’ve ever wondered why there’s no copper in the air, it’s because aluminum is the superior choice in every way. For starters, aluminum features twice the ampacity per pound as copper. In addition, it’s lighter, more flexible, and more corrosion-resistant. And it’s much more cost-effective. As an example, if you’re an electron going all the way from say, for long distance power transmission, on the grid – you’re going to use the aluminum power highway. Thanks to a specially engineered aluminum alloy, Mingda cables now make it possible for commercial and residential users to enjoy the same reliability and economic advantages as power utilities.

Key Features of Aluminum Alloy Conductor Cable:

►Conductors:

Constructed with aluminum alloy conductors, providing excellent conductivity and strength.
Alloyed materials improve the mechanical properties and reduce the weight of the cable compared to traditional aluminum conductors.
►Insulation:

Insulated with high-quality materials such as cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) or thermoplastic insulation.
Offers superior electrical properties, including high dielectric strength and resistance to heat and moisture.
►Jacketing:

Encased in a robust jacket made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or other suitable materials.
Provides additional protection against environmental factors, abrasion, and mechanical stress.
►Armor (if applicable):

May feature an optional armor layer for enhanced mechanical protection, typically made of galvanized steel or aluminum.
Provides resistance against physical damage, rodents, and other external hazards.
►Temperature Rating:

Designed to withstand a wide range of temperatures, ensuring reliable performance in both indoor and outdoor environments.
Suitable for use in areas with extreme temperatures or temperature fluctuations.
►Voltage Rating:

Rated for medium to high voltage applications, typically ranging from 600 volts to 35 kilovolts (kV).
Provides efficient power transmission over long distances with minimal power loss.
►Compliance:

Meets or exceeds industry standards and specifications, including ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) and IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) requirements.
Ensures compliance with safety and performance standards for electrical installations.
