Key Points for the Clarification of Steel Core Aluminum Stranded Wire

Aluminum stranded wire is twisted from multiple aluminum monofilaments, the steel core aluminum strand is a steel core composed of multiple steel wires, and the outer wire is formed by a number of aluminum wires.

Aluminum stranded wire and steel core aluminum stranded wire, mainly used for overhead power lines, with good electrical conductivity and sufficient mechanical strength. Steel-cored aluminum stranded wire is widely used in power transmission lines of various voltage levels. Due to the high tensile strength, the tower distance can be enlarged. Due to the low tensile strength, aluminum stranded wire is generally used in industrial and mining enterprises and rural short-distance transmission lines. Because of the small distance between towers, high-voltage transmission lines are generally not used.
