ACS (Aluminum Clad Steel)
It is primarily used in overhead transmission lines and is valued for its strength and resistance to corrosion. ACS consists of a steel core that is coated with a layer of aluminum, combining the tensile strength of steel with the conductivity and corrosion resistance of aluminum.
Key Features of ACS:
- High Tensile Strength: The steel core provides the strength needed for long spans and heavy loads in transmission lines
- Corrosion Resistance: The aluminum cladding protects the steel from environmental corrosion, making ACS suitable for coastal or industrial areas.
- Conductivity: While the steel core provides strength, the aluminum coating helps improve electrical conductivity, though it is less conductive than all-aluminum or aluminum alloy conductors.
ACS is used in a variety of applications, including overhead ground wires and messenger cables, where strength and environmental durability are required.
