Standard Specification for Concentric-Lay-Stranded Aluminum Conductors, Coated-Steel Reinforced (ACSR)
STANDARD published on 1.4.2024
Why Redline?
A PDF redline is a quick and easy way to compare all of the changes between the current, active standard and the previous version.
With a redline you'll immediately see:
Save Time and Trouble!
With a Redline you no longer have to spend time trying to determine what has changed in the new standard! Redlines save you time and ensure you see what the changes are to the standard.
Price
When you select the "Active + Redline" option you get both documents! Best of all, the cost of an Active + Redline is only slightly more than buying the Active Standard by itself.

This specification covers concentric-lay-stranded aluminum conductors, coated-steel reinforced (ACSR), made from round aluminum 1350-H19 wires and round, coated steel core wire for use as overhead electrical conductors. ACSR covered by this specification has nine types of coated steel core wire which are designated by abbreviations as follows: ACSR/GA-ACSR, ACSR/GB-ACSR, ACSR/GC-ACSR, ACSR/MA-ACSR, ACSR/MB-ACSR, ACSR/MC-ACSR, ACSR/HS-ACSR, ACSR/MS-ACSR, and ACSR/AZ-ACSR. Before stranding, the aluminum wire and steel core wire shall meet the requirements prescribed. ACSR may be constructed using steel core wire with any one of nine types of protective coatings. The acceptable core wires are galvanized steel core wires, coating Classes A, B, or C ; high-strength galvanizes steel core wire; Zn-5Al-MM coated steel core wire; coating Classes A, B, or C ; aluminized steel core wire in accordance with the prescribed specifications. Tests for mechanical and electrical properties of zinc-coated, Zn-5Al-MM coated or aluminum coated steel wires shall be made before stranding. All aluminum wires composing the conductors shall be capable of meeting the bending property requirements after stranding.
