[short]
123.3 Azusa AAAC – All Aluminum Alloy 6201 Conductor
Allowable Ampacity for 123.3 Azusa AAAC: 256 Amps
Applications:
AAAC – All Aluminum Alloy Conductor is used for primary and secondary overhead transmission and distribution services. This has been designed utilizing a high-strength aluminum alloy to achieve a high strength-to weight ratio and better sag characteristic. The conductor has a higher resistance to corrosion than ACSR.
