• Greater Strength & Reduced Sag
• Increased Spans on fewer/shorter structures
• Twice the Capacity of AAAC, ACSR and others
• Reduced Line Losses by 25% to 40%
• Decreased Fuel Consumption & Emissions
• Lower Overall Lifecycle Costs
• Outstanding Product Warranty

…And, its been installed by over 100 utilities at more than 260 project sites. This is not a novelty. This is proven and appropriate technology for our modern grid

Ampacity

Carry twice the current of a conventional conductor. Lighter core allows the use of 28% more aluminum without a weight penalty.

Reduced Line Losses

Under equal load conditions reduces line losses by 30 to 40% compared to conductors of the same diameter and weight

Longer Spans

Greater strength, effective self-damping and superior fatigue resistance allows increased spans between fewer or shorter structures.

Strength/Weight

Hybrid Carbon Composite Core is stronger and lighter than steel core.

Improved Sag performance

• ACCC® technology is based on replacing heavy steel core of traditional electrical transmission conductor with high strength, light weight carbon fiber composite core
• 28% More Aluminum = Greater Capacity, Reduced Losses, & Cooler Temps
• 25% stronger and 60% lighter than a traditional steel core = fewer or lower structures
• Lower Coefficient of Thermal Expansion = Less Sag at Higher Temperatures
• Longer spans, fewer structures, increased line capacity
• Applicable to all voltages
• Resists degradation from vibration, corrosion, ultraviolet radiation, corona, chemical and thermal oxidation and, most importantly, cyclic load fatigue
