ASTM B-230 B-231 ABC Aerial Bundled Cable Al Conductor XLPE Insulation

ASTM B-230 B-231 ABC Aerial Bundled Cable Al Conductor XLPE Insulation

Multiple single-core cables can be combined together using Aerial Bundle Cables, also known as Aerial Bundled Conductors or ABC, with 0.6/1kv. In order to temporarily distribute power to street lighting and supplementary pole-pole service cables, ABC cable is frequently utilized. Single- and multi-core light-stranded aluminum conductors with XLPE/PE/PVC insulation are features of ABC cables. They are more frequently utilized in short-term power installations like buildings on bases. A common term for ABC cables is "bare conductors." as cables with insulation. Although these ABC cables are installed and have air gaps between them, sparks and shorts during strong winds could result in bushfires in arid regions or endanger adjacent property.
