APPLICATION
Used for primary and secondary overhead distribution where limited space is available or desirable for rights of way. Installed as an uninsulated conductor, however, covering is effective in preventing direct shorts and instantaneous flashovers should tree limbs or other objects contact conductors in such close proximity.The resulting close-proximity configuration minimizes the amount of space and hardware required for line installation; particularly useful in congested areas such as alleyways or tight corridors.
STANDARD
Tree wire is manufactured to lCEA S-121-733 and should meet the following relevant standards:
ASTM B230,ASTM B231,ASTM B232,ASTM B398,ASTM B399,ASTM B400
CONSTRUCTION
Conductors are concentrically stranded, AAC (1350-H19), AAAC or ACSR. Available with high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) covering .
